Former Goodman Tavendale Reid partner, David Goodman, has joined Anderson Lloyd Lawyers as a partner owner in the Christchurch office.

Goodman brings with him more than 25 years of expertise in the water, agribusiness, fisheries, construction, technology and health industries. Widely recognised as one of the South Island’s leading irrigation sector legal experts, he also advises regularly in relation to mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, insolvencies, corporate restructurings and commercial contracts.

“I am impressed by the culture and collegiality at Anderson Lloyd and excited by new opportunities in the water and infrastructure industries,” says Goodman.
