Pictured here - our Associate for Business & Commercial, Merlaina Donald, leading a practical Warranties & Liabilities session at the 2026 Master Joiners Conference in Queenstown end of last month.

Through real-life scenarios and hands-on discussion, attendees explored what supplier contract warranties really mean and who’s responsible when things don’t go to plan.
A great conference full of practical takeaways, with Merlaina attending alongside our Employment Law Partner, Tess von Dadelszen who spoke on the latest employment law changes.

Thank you to Master Joiners for hosting the JB Morrison team!
