Every day, we’re privileged to work with some of New Zealand’s most innovative people and progressive organisations.

This same spirit is part of our culture at Kensington Swan. In early January Kensington Swan opened an office in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates – becoming the first New Zealand law firm to make a real commitment to the Middle East.

This is an exciting development for us, and for our clients. The Middle East presents enormous potential for New Zealand businesses looking to export to the Gulf or seek investment funding from this region. To learn more, click here to request a copy of our Annual Review – Planning for Growth 2010/2011 or contact our United Arab Emirates Managing Partner, Quentin Lowcay, to discuss how we can help grow your business.


As people and businesses are moving faster, they want to work closely with those who provide real value. Clients tell us that it’s the depth of our relationship with them, and the quality of service and care that we provide, that sets us apart from other lawyers.

To experience the Kensington Swan difference, we invite you to start a conversation with us today. After all, conversations are always the beginnings of great working relationships.
