Frank Chan
Senior Associate | Private Client
LLB
I graduated from the University of Auckland in 2002 and have since built a diverse legal career spanning residential and commercial property, trusts, wills, estates, and banking and finance law.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of advising families, small to medium businesses, family trusts, estates, property developers, and financial institutions.
My work has included:
• Managing all aspects of residential property transactions, including sales, purchases, subdivisions, and financing.
• Acting for both landlords and tenants in commercial property transactions, including leasing, development projects, and due diligence.
• Guiding clients through the full lifecycle of estate management — from preparing wills to obtaining probate and administering and finalising estates.
• Supporting trustees and families with trust administration, changes of trustees, succession planning, and long term wealth protection.
• Serving as the primary legal services provider for a registered bank, delivering advice across a broad range of banking and finance matters.
I genuinely enjoy connecting with clients from all walks of life and take pride in offering practical, effective legal advice that empowers them to achieve their goals, whatever they may be.
