Simpson Grierson adds to strong national presence

Simpson Grierson is delighted to announce the arrival of two new senior associates at its Wellington and Christchurch offices.

The employment law group welcomes senior associate Charlotte Bates to its Wellington practice.

Charlotte advises on all aspects of employment law and has extensive experience in corporate restructures, disciplinary matters, personal grievances, Holidays Act issues, employment agreements and union issues.

The firm's Christchurch office is further strengthened by the addition of senior associate Lillian Sewell to the local government and environment group. Lillian joins Simpson Grierson from another leading New Zealand law firm and specialises in resource management law, with a particular focus on environmental, consenting, and regional and district planning matters.
