What we do
Your trusted partner in civil litigation and dispute resolution
At Braun Bond and Lomas, we provide specialised civil litigation and dispute resolution services tailored to your individual needs.
Not your typical law firm, we offer a flexible, collaborative approach that allows us to work seamlessly with your existing legal team or provide comprehensive legal representation independently.
How we can help
Braun Bond and Lomas are regularly asked to assist with providing advice about a party’s legal position, and the strength of any claim or defence they may have.
We can assist with developing and executing strategies to resolve disputes as early and efficiently as possible, often without the need for courts.
From that point, we advocate on behalf of our clients, and are focused on one thing – acting in our clients’ best interests and obtaining the best possible result for them.
Dispute Resolution
When disputes arise between parties, often they can be resolved without the need to involve the courts. We can assist with providing advice about your legal position, and the strength of any claim you may have or defence to a claim being made against you.
We also assist with developing and implementing a strategy to resolve disputes as early and efficiently as possible. We advocate on behalf of our clients, and are focused on acting in our clients’ best interests and obtaining the best possible result for them.
Civil Litigation
If a dispute goes to court, we can prepare claim (or defence) documents, and advise and advocate for clients through the court system.
Litigation is the process of bringing a claim in court. If the dispute is not resolved during the litigation process, the end point is a trial where we argue on behalf of our clients, and a judgment is made. This is a specialist area of practice and requires expert knowledge.
Your partner for specialist advice
Because we specialise in litigation, we provide expert knowledge and advice to our clients on this topic. We regularly work with other professional firms, including other law firms to provide this specialist service to many of their clients.
We can work with you on a specific matter when needed, allowing you to maintain your relationship with your usual law firm for all other legal issues.
Our difference
Strategic partnerships
We've built strong relationships with law firms across New Zealand. These partnerships enable us to offer a safe, non-competitive alternative for your complex legal matters.
Expert
litigation
Our experienced litigators are skilled in handling a wide range of disputes, including civil litigation, commercial disputes, construction disputes, employment disputes, estate disputes and more.
Personalised solutions
Whether you need assistance with a specific dispute or require ongoing legal support, we can tailor our services to your exact requirements.
Alternative dispute resolution
We believe in exploring alternative dispute resolution options, such as mediation and arbitration, to achieve efficient and cost-effective solutions.
What will it cost?
We remain committed to providing excellent service at rates that are less than comparable legal service providers. The very nature of litigation means that some cases will last for a considerable length of time. We like to discuss likely fees and a timeline at our initial meeting.
Please contact us to arrange a meeting.
Jane Smith
"I feel very lucky to be part of such an awesome workplace. All the directors are very approachable and supportive, creating an open and positive environment where everyone feels valued for their contribution. They have personally supported me to create my dream role! The work-life balance here is next level—it's clear that the company genuinely cares about the well-being of its employees."
"With initiatives that encourage healthy living, such as group exercise events, involvement in local gym challenges, and health insurance included for all staff, the company ensures we have the resources to stay balanced and perform at our best. This focus on health and wellness reflects the company’s values and priorities, creating an environment where I feel supported and empowered to thrive."
"I appreciate the culture at BBL, where the focus on both mental and physical health is a top priority. The firm offers more than the usual perks, like a token fruit bowl in the staffroom — it’s a genuine commitment from management to support our overall well-being."
