Company description
The late Michael Shanahan (‘Mick’) established Shanahans in New Lynn in 1956. Shanahans was the first law firm in New Lynn and was originally located on Totara Avenue. The firm moved to its current premises in Hugh Brown Drive in the early 1970s.
Mick Shanahan (who died in 2004 and was succeeded by one of our current directors, Mary Anne Shanahan), wrote the following reflection of his time in practice:
“It has been interesting in the course of the practice to help clients to move into their first home with a loan and then 30 years later to carry out the discharge of that mortgage, in a suburban location where there has been very considerable stability so far as movement of the local people is concerned. A great number of very close friendships have been formed with people who came to me as clients and the experience overall has been a most rewarding one, both in fulfilment of personal ambition and personal acquaintance.
