Jane Fletcher replaces Brent Winkelmann, who retires after six years on the board
NZ LAW Limited has elected Downie Stewart partner Jane Fletcher to its board.
She steps in for Taupō lawyer Brent Winkelmann, who retired after a two-term tenure totalling six years. NZ LAW chair Dan Moore said that Fletcher’s skills would be “most useful to NZ LAW’s Property Special Interest Group.”
Fletcher’s experience spans a wide range of matters related to land development and subdivision, residential and commercial conveyancing, and estate planning. She is part of the New Zealand Property Law Section Land Transactions Sub-committee.
