Born and educated in the Hutt Valley, Ian attended Eastern Hutt School, Hutt Intermediate and Hutt Valley High. He graduated from Victoria University with a Bachelor of Laws in 1982 and has been practising law ever since. While ARL Lawyers has transformed over the years through different ownership structures and names, Ian has been with us since 1982, and has been a Director since 1987.
Ian’s greatest sense of satisfaction comes from helping his clients problem solve. “The law can be complex and overwhelming,” he says, “helping clients find a solution outside the square is very rewarding.”
When not in the office, Ian can be found pursuing his passion for golf, or fishing for trout on Lake Taupo. He is married with three adult children and five young grandsons. Ian also sits on the Board of Boulcott's Farm Heritage Golf Club and has a keen interest in property investment.
