Paul Sandford - Partner
I have been in practice since 1973 and specializes in commercial law, trusts, rural law, general property and contract law. I am involved in a number of community organizations both as a member and as an honorary solicitor. I enjoy the quality time I have with my family and together we enjoy the great lakes we have around Rotorua with fishing and boating and diving around the greater Bay of Plenty waters. My wife and I belong to the Hash Harriers and enjoy the relaxed running activities we get involved in, and I really enjoy watching a good game of rugby.
