Denham Bramwell Lawyers has announced the appointment of two lawyers, Tala Grace Skeens and Shenali Lewke Bandara, as its new associates. A news release posted on the New Zealand Law Society site highlighted the achievements of both women, who are expected to join the family law practice of the firm.

She also brings a multicultural perspective, rooted in her respect for various tikanga within her own whānau.

Bandara works across the firm’s family law, trusts, and wills and estates divisions. With previous experience in specialised family law chambers, Shenali has built a strong understanding of complex cases, particularly those involving trusts and family-owned businesses. Her focus is on supporting clients in establishing sound legal structures to protect their assets and navigate sensitive family dynamics.
