North Herring Lawyers is a busy general practice in Queanbeyan, just across the border from the ACT.
Led by its two directors Megan North and Andrew Herring, North Herring Lawyers has a reputation throughout the region for its excellence in service, professionalism and legal acumen.
The firm has been operating in the region since 2008 and has grown to a team of over 14 across a range of practice areas including:
As employers, Megan and Andrew believe in developing the skills of their more junior team members across the firm, continuing the firm's tradition of broad general practice rather than specialised practice areas.
That said, Megan is regarded as a leading practitioner in the field of property law and conveyancing practice, having previously been recognised as Solicitor of the Year by the Real Estate Institute of the ACT.
Andrew has held accreditation as a specialist in advocacy since 2008, and remains one of only 14 such accredited specialists throughout NSW. He leads the dispute resolution team and also works as an Adjunct Lecturer with the College of Law (ACT).
