This year's Mental Health Awareness Week theme was all about Belonging – and we had some real fun with it! 💙

Alongside our Pier Law tradition of gifting compliment cards, we introduced a few new activities throughout the week to bring our team closer together.

From our kindness vending machine (because who doesn't love receiving a little gift!), to creating a team time capsule and taking on secret missions that resulted in some hilarious entries, there was plenty of laughter, kindness and connection throughout the week!

We wrapped things up on Friday with a shared lunch to celebrate World Food Day, enjoying delicious dishes and celebrating the different cultures within our team🌏

As we come out of the winter months, it was the perfect opportunity to give everyone a little connection boost and remind ourselves that it's often the small gestures that make the biggest difference.

Renovating is exciting… until consent questions pop up 🛠️

A recent Court of Appeal decision has changed how disputes over cross-lease renovations are assessed, making it even more important to understand your rights before you start building.

Whether you're planning an extension, enclosing a deck, or making structural changes, a quick conversation with us now could save you significant time, cost and stress later 🏠

Just a couple of new recruits joining the Pier Law team… 🐑🤍

Caroline brought in these two little lambs for a visit, and naturally, the team couldn’t resist a cuddle!

Nothing says spring quite like lambs in the office! 🌿

Before you sign, make sure you understand every key term, especially the solicitor’s clause 🖋️

We've broken down this often-misunderstood clause, what it’s designed to do, and when it may be the right choice depending on the transaction.

As always, we recommend having a lawyer look over your Sale & Purchase Agreement before signing anything - remember, we're here to make sure you're protected before you even step foot into your dream home 🏠

Dream team vibes with a best friend? 💫

Before you launch, it’s good to talk through the details that can quietly make or break the relationship later. We've listed some key considerations for starting a business with a friend - clear responsibilities, decision-making, and planning for the “what if"📄

Thinking about making an offer on your first home and wondering if you can back out later? You’re not alone.

Many first home buyers ask what happens if plans change, inspections raise questions, or finances shift. We break down the key factors that can affect backing out of a property offer, and what to consider before you sign🏡✨🤝

Random Acts of Kindness Day gave us the perfect excuse to do something we’re quite fond of… baking! 🧁

Our team whipped up some homemade goodies to donate to Full Bellies Charitable Trust , a wonderful local charity providing school lunches to children across Canterbury.

We love what Full Bellies is doing for families in our community, and we were very happy to play a small part (with plenty of flour and sugar involved!).

Hopefully our baking helped make a few little lunchboxes – and days – that bit sweeter 💛

Our offices are looking a little brighter this Daffodil Day! 🌼

Each year, we order a beautiful bunch of daffodils for each of our offices as one small way of supporting the Cancer Society and the important work they do for people and families affected by cancer across New Zealand.

We always love seeing these bright blooms around the office – and knowing that our annual tradition helps support such an important cause💛
