DO FLETCHER is our name and with it comes a long history spanning four generations. Our story started in the 1930s when Vern Fletcher worked for a local firm. His passion for the law, and ensuring the needs of his clients were always met, drove him to establish a new legal practice in the 1950s. Vern was Nelson City Council's solicitor for over 40 years, specialising in town planning which is now known as Resource Management. In 1958 Ron Fletcher followed in his father's footsteps by joining the legal profession, eventually serving as Managing Partner of the family firm. Ron spent the late 1950s and 1960s providing legal advice on personal injury, which came to an end when ACC was put in place. Between the 1970s and his passing in 2013, Ron was one of Nelson's most successful commercial lawyers. He had a special affinity with his horticultural and agricultural clients, whether Italian tomato growers in the Wood, large dairy farmers up the Matakitaki Valley, or apple growers at Mairiri. In the early 2000s Ron transitioned into a consultancy role, helping his son, Hamish, establish a business of his own. Hamish Fletcher started practising in conveyancing before eventually finding his passion in Fisheries and Maritime law. Hamish Fletcher Lawyers opened its doors in 2003 as a small boutique business with a proud family history. This year we are fortunate to celebrate our 20th anniversary and to have had dedicated team members support us along the way. Despite our humble beginnings, we have grown over time and are now one of the region's largest law firms with teams specialising in Trusts & Estates, Property Law, Commercial Law and Dispute Resolution.
