Robert's specialty is property and trust law. He was a Partner for 23 years at the firm, and in that time headed Simpson Western's property team for over 20 years. Robert now applies his knowledge and experience to the firm's trust and private clients.

Robert has significant experience in all aspects of property law. He advises a range of commercial and private clients on commercial and residential property transactions including the drafting and negotiating of commercial leases.

Robert also helps lead a team that specialises in advising clients about their asset protection, lifestyle planning and trust requirements.

Robert was involved in our local business community and was a Governance Board Member of the Takapuna Beach Business Association for 16 years. The Board has been influential in transforming Takapuna into a vibrant and flourishing retail and commercial centre.

Away from work, Robert has a passion for classical music and jazz.  Robert is a proud supporter of the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, Auckland’s professional orchestra. He has been trustee of the Auckland Philharmonia Foundation, the charitable trust that supports the long-term future of APO, for more than 10 years. On a personal level, Robert enjoys playing the piano, but admits he has reached his (limited) potential!

Robert played in and coached youth cricket teams with some success. He also enjoys post-war British and European cars and is the proud owner of a beautiful 1969 Lancia Fulvia.
