Resource Management

The Resource Management Act has far-reaching effects on what you can
and cannot do with your land, business, home and resources.

We can help you identify any resource management and environmental legal issues
and effects that need to be considered. We have both the expertise and experience
managing complex projects from inception through to appeals.

Charles Wilkinson

DIRECTOR | charlesw@connectlegal.co.nz

A Taranaki boy born and bred, Charles is coming up to 40 years practising law and still gets a huge buzz out of helping clients. He’s a problem solver so helping people with issues such as structuring and finance, commercial and residential property transactions, business acquisitions and mergers, estate planning, trust law and relationship property is what he does best

Charles loves getting out into the community. As Chair of the WOMAD NZ Charitable Trust, the Taranaki Arts Festival Trust, and Taranaki Gardens Festival Trust he gets to be involved with some of Taranaki and New Zealand’s biggest festivals and events and help make the place we live an even better one. Charles also loves being in the outdoors in the garden and whenever he can, heading off on fishing charters throughout New Zealand with a group of likeminded mates.

Bayley Roylance

ASSOCIATE | bayleyr@connectlegal.co.nz

After four years working as a Research Assistant and Chief District Court Judge’s Clerk in Wellington, Bayley returned home to the Taranaki region in 2018.

Bayley works alongside both Scott Grieve and the family law team. This means she can advise on commercial and property matters as well as family matters. Bayley is able to draw on her knowledge of other areas of law to take a holistic approach if needed and can offer a wide range of support to her clients.

Being back in New Plymouth has given Bayley the opportunity to work professionally in a region that is connected to her roots. She has been able to re-engage with the local theatre community and undertake her studies in te Reo Māori in a local context. Most recently, Bayley was appointed a trustee board member of the Taranaki Kiwi Trust and is supporting the trust in its mission to help the Taranaki kiwi population go “from rare to everywhere”, improving our local environment.
