Position

Before joining Wilberforce, Sam practised in New Zealand as a barrister, and as a solicitor in one of New Zealand’s leading litigation firms. He had a broad practice and frequently acted on large cases involving difficult contractual and equitable issues. In one such case Sam acted for PwC as liquidator of Ross Asset Management, New Zealand’s largest Ponzi scheme – a matter which raised novel questions about the intersection between equitable and insolvency principles.

Sam’s practice spans all of Chambers’ key areas, including trusts, commercial disputes, property, pensions, and insolvency.

Career

Called 2021 (2017 New Zealand), joined Chambers in September 2022.
