MEDIA RELEASE FROM CAVELL LEITCH QUEENSTOWN
Cavell Leitch Queenstown team grows as resort's property industry strengthens
August 14, 2014
Award-winning law firm Cavell Leitch is expanding its Queenstown team as the resort’s commercial and property industries
continue to strengthen.
Lana Christensen is the newest member to join Cavell Leitch’s growing Queenstown office.
Christensen joins the Cavell Leitch team as a Solicitor, bringing nearly seven years of industry experience in
commercial and property law with her. She adds to the already impressive legal team of Principal Partner, Stephen Brent
and Senior Associate, Karen Castiglione.
Christensen believes her skills will complement Cavell Leitch’s offering: “Having worked in a smaller law office in
Christchurch I have been involved with a wide range of issues across many different areas of law,” she says.
“Queenstown is going through a period of growth right now and Cavell Leitch is a great resource to help with any legal
issues people may have.”
A keen netball player, Lana comes to Queenstown from Canterbury with her partner and loves the lifestyle and scenery
that the region offers. “Queenstown is an amazing place to be able to live and work, I’m just trying to get out and see
as much of it as I can,” she says.
Cavell Leitch Queenstown Principal Partner, Stephen Brent says: “The outlook for commercial property development in
Queenstown is strong, with several new buildings in the pipeline such as the Countdown, Mitre 10 Mega and Pak’n’Save
developments on Frankton Flats, as well as the continued expansion of Remarkables Park. We believe that Queenstown will
continue to grow and prosper, so we have made the decision to grow our firm with this in mind.
“We are thrilled to have Lana join our team. She brings not only youth and enthusiasm, but a wealth of experience with
her. She’s a fantastic young Solicitor who will be able to handle a great deal of work cost-effectively for our clients.
We’re really excited about having her join the team and expanding our Queenstown office.”
