Shelley Stevenson
I’m a family law specialist with over 25 years experience working as a barrister and solicitor. I do my very best for each of my clients, well organised and well prepared every time. I will clearly explain your options and keep you informed all the way through. I have good relationships with my clients and other important people in the process, like court staff, psychologists, social workers and other lawyers. If I am not the best person to help I will refer you to someone who is.

A little more about me
I have a BA (history) and LLB from Victoria University and was admitted as a barrister and solicitor of the High Court of New Zealand in May 1994.
I started work in a Wellington law firm in criminal, civil and family court work and soon became a youth advocate. I assisted my supervising partner and then conducted on my own a number of jury trials. On my OE I worked in child protection litigation for local authorities in Kent and London, UK. I returned to New Zealand and became a family law specialist in Wellington including three years in government.
I started practice as a barrister in March 2016.
