Hughes Robertson

Welcome to Hughes Robertson, a trusted institution located in Wellington, Willeston Street, 22. As an establishment of interest, we are committed to providing reliable legal advice in a wide range of areas. With a proven track record, we offer sensible solutions by combining our experience with the latest technology and an up-to-date knowledge of the law.

Litigation is one of our specialties, and we have represented both large and small companies, as well as private individuals. While we strive to explore all avenues to avoid time-consuming and costly litigation, we understand that sometimes it becomes unavoidable. In such cases, we will be by your side every step of the way, continually advising and informing you of possible solutions and strategies. Ultimately, we work for you and will follow your instructions.

Whether you are buying or selling property, we will advise you on all necessary aspects such as finance, registering a new mortgage, or discharging an old one. Additionally, we have expertise in the complexities of commercial property and business transactions. We can negotiate on your behalf to ensure that rental and lease terms are in your best interest and meet your needs.

Our experience also extends to subdivisions, where we can guide you through the necessary steps to complete your project within the shortest possible time frame, minimizing costly overruns.

Debt recovery is another area in which we excel. Our skilled team can assist you in recovering debts, whether through strongly worded letters or legal proceedings, such as placing charging orders on property or issuing bankruptcy notices. The mere threat of these measures often leads to a successful outcome for our clients.

At Hughes Robertson, we currently administer a large number of Trusts for our clients. We provide advice on the most appropriate structure for your phase and stage of life, with Family Trusts being the most common due to their asset protection benefits. However, we understand that a Family Trust may not be suitable for everyone, and we encourage seeking advice sooner rather than later.

In addition to our expertise in property and trusts, we are fully experienced in estate planning and management. We can assist you in ensuring your will is up to date, as no one likes to think about it, but death and taxes are certainties in life.

For those involved in the forestry industry, we can provide guidance on forestry rights and the relationship between forestry owners, land owners, and territorial authorities.

If you are in the building industry, we can assist with problems caused by water ingress, construction defects, and provide advice on contracts, invoices, and dispute resolution.

During the stressful time of a relationship break-up, our efficient and prompt legal advice can help ensure that a mountain is not made out of a molehill. We are here to provide solutions rather than litigation at this time.
