James Hakaria

LLB, University of Waikato

James joined the firm in August 2015, and advises corporate and private clients on general civil litigation and estate disputes, as well as construction and employment matters.

James enjoys the challenge of solving problems, taking complex issues and making them simple, and achieving the best possible outcome for the client. This always starts with listening to clients and understanding their specific needs, and then focussing on the goal or solution rather than the problem. James’ calm and practical outlook is invaluable in formulating strategy.

What clients say

“Please accept our personal thanks for all the help you gave Waipuna FC through what was a very trying situation. I wanted to reemphasise how helpful it was to have someone you trust, take control of the situation and offer advice and guidance the way you did. At our most stressful times, having the experience of a trusted advisor like yourself is worth so much to a not for profit family club like ours. Again, a big thank you to you and your team for the expert touch provided, which produced such great results.”
