Marta is an associate in our Dispute Resolution team, working across a broad range of civil litigation matters. Her practice includes contentious trust disputes, complex relationship property matters, and shareholder disputes involving closely held companies and significant asset structures.
 
She appears as counsel in a range of courts in the civil jurisdiction. Marta was admitted to the bar in October 2020 and previously worked as a Judge’s Clerk at the High Court, giving her valuable insight.
 
Marta’s recent work includes a contentious shareholder dispute resulting in a company’s liquidation, relationship property proceedings involving substantial assets, complex trust and company relationship property litigation in the High Court, debt recovery proceedings for a trust, and mediating a multi‑entity farming relationship property dispute. She frequently acts for private clients, farming and agricultural families, and trusts with diverse asset structures.
 
Outside the office, Marta enjoys the best of Hawke’s Bay living, exploring local walking tracks with her young family and their two beagles, and making the most of the region’s exceptional food and wine.
