The firm originally shared its office with the management of The Howick and Pakuranga Times before David purchased a unit in Fencible Chambers at the corner of Fencible Drive and Moore Street, where the firm continues to be based.  Galbraiths has since had to expand it's Fencible Drive premises and these modern offices offer our clients easy parking with direct street access.

David’s son Richard Galbraith joined David in practice in 1994.  Richard had previously worked at two larger CBD law firms before joining David in Howick. 

Richard took over sole ownership of Galbraiths from David on 1 October 2002. The firm grew rapidly, establishing a reputation as the leading law firm in the area. Richard developed New Zealand’s first partial online conveyancing service through his company KeyTrack New Zealand Limited (see www.keytrack.co.nz ) and in March 2006 sold the practice to existing employees Michael Taylor and Stephen Munro. Richard and David Galbraith continue to assist as consultants to the firm, with Richard now focussing mainly on the administration and development of KeyTrack®.

Galbraiths has developed primarily in the property area, with the legal team acting for a number of property developers. The firm can now assist clients with all other legal matters, including commercial and civil litigation, court work, family and empoyment law, wills and estate planning and advice regarding setting up a family trust.

The Galbraiths team comprises four lawyers and two registered legal executives, who are assisted by the firms’ qualified accountant. They are all motivated to do the best for their clients and enjoy working in a progressive law practice.
