Background

With a career encompassing every aspect of trust law – including family and business asset protection, trust and estate planning and the formation and management of charitable trusts – Catherine is now one of New Zealand’s leading trust lawyers.

That reputation puts her in high demand with clients, as well as law schools and the wider legal community. When she’s not advising clients, Catherine is delivering seminars and updates at legal and financial institutions.

Catherine joined Martelli McKegg as a partner in 1988.
