Who We Are
We're not like other law firms
We offer a new way to access top quality legal and corporate services, delivering results, transparent value and exceptional client experience.
Our Story
Internationally, we’ve seen an exponential demand for new ways to access legal and corporate services. A rapidly growing number of NewLaw providers are finding innovative ways to transform the experience for both client and advisor.
Inspired by their success, and with the intention of bringing similar innovation to the New Zealand market, we created SHIFT.
In a changing world where flexibility and autonomy are increasingly important, and where in-house teams and corporates are often required to do more with less, SHIFT fills a gap in the legal market, accommodating the changing needs of both clients and advisors.
