‘A good firm with a growing presence in Auckland, and preeminence in Hamilton. The people I've dealt with there are smart, hardworking, and good managers of litigation files.’
‘James MacGillivray in Hamilton is an outstanding lawyer and had he not devoted his career to the firm but rather had gone to the Bar, he undoubtedly would have taken silk before now.'
