Melissa Bourke, a director in Innes Dean Tararua Law in Palmerston North, and Brent Winkelmann, a partner in Le Pine & Co in Taupō, have joined the seven-member board. The board’s other members are:

  • Kristine King (Chair), Duncan King Law, Epsom, Auckland
  • Gerard DeCourcy, Downie Stewart, Dunedin
  • Mark Henderson, Corcoran French, Christchurch
  • Dan Moore, Norris Ward McKinnon, Hamilton
  • Natalie Smith, Johnston Lawrence, Wellington

“We welcome Melissa and Brent to the NZ LAW Limited board, and we look forward to their contributions to the group,” said Kristine King, NZ LAW Limited chair. 

“NZ LAW would also like to acknowledge the two directors who are retiring after each having served six years on the board. Jacqui Gray, a partner in Hastings firm Gifford Devine, has had responsibility for member firm staff training and development. Oamaru lawyer Michael de Buyzer, from Berry & Co, has held the board’s insurance portfolio. Jacqui and Michael have set the bar very high for the directors who will take over their portfolios. We thank them very much for their commitment and work they have done for NZ Law,” she said.
