Mc

MC is New Zealand’s largest litigation firm, by far. With 160 litigators in Auckland and Wellington, we’re at least five times the size of our nearest rival. As Office of the Crown Solicitor at Auckland, MC is the repository and custodian of specialist knowledge that’s been accrued over generations to benefit the Crown, while ensuring prosecution decisions are independent from politicians. We derive legitimacy from Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Today's MC is a blended firm, with our litigators doing both Crown prosecutions and every other kind of litigation. That gives the Crown a huge resource of litigators to prosecute criminal cases, with expertise in every area of the law that might arise. MC has been growing strongly since the mid-2010s and we're in competition with the other big New Zealand firms for talent. Our new MC Centre is Auckland is designed not so much with clients in mind but to provide the best work environment of any law firm in Australasia. To that end, we are the first law firm in the Asia-Pacific region to achieve WELL v2 pre-certification from the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). It has required us to provide evidence and in some cases make improvements to meet standards measuring 108 different features covering ten concepts: Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Movement, Thermal Comfort, Sound, Materials, Mind and Community. MC aims for platinum certification. As New Zealand’s largest litigation firm by far, MC invests more than any other in litigation training. The MC Centre boasts a full training courtroom designed exactly like a courtroom at the Auckland High Court, the only one of its type in Australasia and perhaps unique in the world. It is where you can learn to be the best litigator of the future from the best litigators of today. Follow us to learn more about who we are and what we stand for.
