Michael Moyes appointed as a partner
Duncan Cotterill appointed Michael Moyes, a recognised industry leader in technology, privacy and intellectual property law, as its newest partner, working out of the Auckland and Wellington offices.
Moyes has 20 years of experience in commercial IP matters and many of New Zealand’s most significant and ground-breaking technology projects. He also advises on compliance with privacy and consumer protection laws.
Duncan Cotterill chairman Struan McOmish said Moyes brought strong business and legal acumen to the firm and would be an essential asset to the team.
“Not only will he bring extensive expertise in technology projects but, with the significant changes to New Zealand’s privacy law due to be enacted this year, our team will be busier than ever advising on the interplay between technology and privacy compliance, McOmish said.
The appointment brings the Auckland-based partner numbers to 12. Moyes is based at Duncan Cotterill’s Auckland office in the Australis Nathan Building in the Britomart precinct.
