Background 

Keryn is an Associate at Govett Quilliam and is a member of our Family Team. 

Keryn specialises in family law related matters, including Care of Children Act proceedings, guardianship issues, protection orders and adoption.  In 2008, Keryn’s family law experience resulted in the Family Court appointing her as “Lawyer for Child” to represent children in family disputes - a role she finds both rewarding and challenging.  Keryn also practices in the often complex area of relationship property, as well as matters under the Protection of Personal and Property Rights Act.

Outside of Govett Quilliam, Keryn is a Trustee of the Taranaki Community Law Centre.

Keryn enjoys spending time with family, cooking, reading and traveling.
