ABSTRACT:
The Lawyers and Conveyancers Act was passed by the New Zealand House of Representatives in March 2006. It became law after the Governor-General assented to it in the name of The Queen. The Act, which replaces the Law Practitioners Act 1982, implements many significant changes, particularly with respect to the district law societies, and the duties and obligations of barristers, solicitors and conveyancers. It is expected that the Act will come into force over a period of some 18 months. But one particular reform has fairly rapid effect, and is worthy of detailed consideration in light of its Commonwealth-wide parallels, and the broader considerations which it highlights.
