What do I do? I undertake research and provide advice on: court systems, judicial practice, justice sector policy, the collection and use of justice sector data as well as legislation and case law. I also write legal articles for the media and sometimes appear on the telly and radio as a legal commentator.
What can I do for you? I can research anything legal that you need to know and present the findings in a user friendly format. I've written reports, operational protocols, training material, guidelines, articles, speeches, media releases, website content, social media content, plus lots other stuff. You name it and I can create it.
Credentials? I've got a Master of Laws and have been admitted to the New Zealand bar. My main specialties are family and criminal law, the operation of family and criminal courts as well as the judiciary. I've previously worked for the Principal Family Court Judge of New Zealand, Chief Victims Advisor to Government, Ministry of Justice, and Victoria University.
