Sarah was professional, approachable and had some good questions for internal clients. She also did a good job at facilitating a team session (tough crowd).

Helen assisted Marlborough District Council in a recent review of our legal structure and provided our Executive Team with a range of options for our legal function going forward. Helen was extremely helpful in fostering communication with General Counsel’s from other local authorities and also assisted in the recruitment of a General Counsel for Marlborough District Council. I found Helen to be very professional and knowledgeable and her ability to respond quickly to issues and offer timely advice was particularly helpful.

You did a fantastic job in outlining what it means to be a high performing team and what the journey looks like for Kāinga Ora legal. The work you did with Auckland Council was particularly interesting – ‘simple’ tools but with clearly with a significant amount of thought and analysis sitting behind them.

We needed an independent review of some of our organisation’s legal functions. Juno Legal were fantastic in providing a highly skilled former General Counsel who joined a high calibre panel that also comprised a Queen’s Counsel and Crown Law. I really appreciated Juno’s understanding of what type of lawyer we needed and their responsiveness throughout the engagement.
