Brook Law is pleased to welcome Nancy Burroughs to the team. Nancy has been involved in the law for over 15 years, initially as a legal secretary for husband Kerry, and then undertaking legal studies while raising three children.

Originally from a sheep and wheat farm in central New South Wales, Nancy has now been living in the Waikato region for over 30 years. She has experience in property law, trusts, estates, and elder law.

Aside from work, Nancy is involved in the Anglican church, both at Saint Stephen’s in Tamahere, and Saint Peter’s Cathedral in Hamilton. Currently Nancy is walking towards completion of the Wilderness Challenge to walk 1200 kms in 12 months. Only 835km to go.

The Government has announced a new one-off residence category, the 2021 Resident Visa.

The 2021 Resident Visa recognises the immense contribution migrants have made to New Zealand during COVID-19 and the uncertainty they’ve faced with closed borders and necessary changes to immigration settings.

It will be available to those who have already submitted a resident visa applications under the Skilled Migrant Category (SMC) and Residence from Work (RfW) category and those who have submitted an SMC Expression of Interest, as well as many other work visa holders who may not have been eligible through the current skilled residence pathways.

Immigration New Zealand expects that around 165,000 migrants currently in New Zealand will be eligible for residence under this new category.

Brook Law is available to help you assess whether you may be eligible for residency under this new category.

We are able to offer a free 30-minute consultation to help you assess your eligibility.

Contact us on 07 838 3385 or at [email protected] to book an appointment.
