On 19 April 2023, The NZ Asian Lawyers Litigators Committee, led by Augustine Choi, hosted a lively panel discussion and social function at Bankside Chambers.
Our panelists, Bankside barristers Christine Meechan KC, Julie Ding and Sam Lowery, and moderator Augustine Choi, shared their thoughts on the language, cultural and knowledge barriers often faced by Asian clients and parties when resolving disputes in New Zealand. They also discussed what to do as counsel or as the solicitor when those issues arise.
