Sarah is a Westport local who got her first taste of legal experience as a student shadowing Jane in the Westport Office.
Sarah studied law at the University of Canterbury, was admitted to the bar in November 2023 and gained her practicing certificate in December 2023.
Sarah began with Stevens Orchard Lawyers in 2020, completing multiple summer and winter internships, before moving into a full-time role as a law clerk upon graduation. She now works as a solicitor with areas of interest in conveyancing, wills, and enduring powers of attorney – assisting on estates, trusts, commercial and relationship property matters.
Outside of work, Sarah enjoys CrossFit, baking, tramping, reading, and spending time with friends and family.
Sarah is mostly based out of our Nelson office but will occasionally travel to our Westport office to work and visit family.
It’s our common ground of genuinely wanting to do good that drives us. It makes us approachable, supportive – but highly effective.
