The New Zealand Law Society’s Property Law Section (PLS) helps property lawyers meet the many changes and challenges of law practice.
Established in April 2000, PLS supports and represents New Zealand property lawyers.
Whether you are new to property law, working your way up the career ladder, or an experienced property lawyer, PLS membership has much to offer.
The PLS has a ‘Find a Property Lawyer’ directory which will help you quickly find a specialist property practitioner in your area.
PLS is governed by an Executive Committee of property lawyers, supported by three subcommitees.
Property law related guidelines, which have been approved by the Law Society Board, can be found here.
PLS members benefit from receiving the quarterly subscription to The Property Lawyer, as well as regular updates by email bulletin.
PLS have put together a selection of resources that may be useful to property practitioners.
PLS is involved in running regular seminars and collegial events around the country.
Lawyers are trained to understand and advise on the implications of buying and selling property. Buying and selling a property extends far beyond the transfer of legal title.
