LeeSalmonLong has promoted commercial litigator David Bullock to partner.

Bullock specialises in company and contractual disputes, tort claims, judicial review and regulatory litigation, and sports law. He has been involved in proceedings at all levels of senior court in New Zealand, as well as in Pacific Islands courts. He has also taken point in both local and international arbitrations.

“I am excited to join the LeeSalmonLong partnership and it is a privilege to work with a great team of talented lawyers who share a commitment to high quality advocacy. I have been fortunate to have developed a varied litigation practice that focuses on complex disputes spanning both private and public law matters.  I look forward to continuing to help clients to resolve their disputes,” Bullock told NZ Lawyer.

He has enjoyed a long tenure with the firm, having joined in 2014.

“LeeSalmonLong has gone from strength to strength. The firm has grown in size while continuing to bring an agile, intelligent and commercial approach to dispute resolution,” he said. “The firm has come to regularly act in some of the largest disputes before the New Zealand courts, and in novel cases at the cutting edge of developments in the law.  We have also continued to develop our strong commitment to pro bono and public interest litigation.”

Bullock is presenting pursuing doctorate studies at the University of Toronto. He obtained his Master of Laws from Yale University, and was once clerk to the New Zealand chief justice.
