We’re proud to celebrate Rachel Robilliard on being named a 2026 Future Legal Leader by NZ Lawyer and Australasian Lawyer, a well-deserved recognition of the impact she’s making across the law, for her clients, and within her community.

Rachel is a Senior Associate in our Environment and Planning team, where she advises on iwi, farming, and irrigation matters. Her work spans complex resource management issues, from fast-track consenting processes through to appearances before New Zealand’s senior courts.

Beyond her legal practice, Rachel brings a strong sense of purpose to her governance roles across a range of organisations. Her deep connection to her Ngāi Tahu whakapapa and rural community underpins the genuine, trusted relationships she builds with clients.

Congratulations, Rachel 👏🏼 this recognition couldn’t be more deserved.

We are delighted to announce the promotion of James Cowan to Partner at Anderson Lloyd.

James is a leading employment lawyer whose practice encompasses the full spectrum of employment law and dispute resolution. He has built a distinguished reputation as a specialist in complex workplace investigations, navigating sensitive matters with precision and integrity.

His ability to guide organisations through their most complex and confidential people matters has made him a trusted adviser to clients across industries - and it is this depth of expertise and judgement that makes him a natural fit for partnership.

John Farrow, who leads Anderson Lloyd’s employment practice alongside James, speaks to what sets him apart:

“James is an innovative, lateral and at times unconventional thinker. He is always willing to share his unique analysis, guide and mentor junior members of our team, and strongly argue his point even when he is in the minority. His views both challenge and grow the teams he works with, and these same attributes help him provide sound, considered advice to clients.“

Please join us in congratulating James on this well-deserved milestone.

Our Queenstown office is proud to have adopted a plot through the Ben Lomond Adopt a Plot Programme.🌲

The programme is a community‑led initiative responding to the growing threat of wilding pines in the Ben Lomond and One Mile Basin area and is administered by the Whakatipu Wilding Control Group with support from , and .

As a plot holder, we’ve committed to hand‑clear wilding pine seedlings and maintaining the area each year to prevent regrowth. We’re proud to be playing our part in protecting and restoring this special local landscape.🌿

Last Friday morning looked a little different in our Queenstown office - in the best way - as we welcomed eight Year 13 students from for a breakfast panel.

Over breakfast, our team sat down with students for an open conversation about life as a lawyer, navigating law school, and the many different directions a legal career can take.

Students also got a closer look at our internship programme which is built around mentoring, paid work experience, and financial support for further study. We’re looking forward to our AL in Schools scholarship interviews later this month.

A huge thank you to the Careers and Pathways teachers at Wakatipu High School, and to the students for showing up so genuinely!
