Katia is a Senior Solicitor in our Commercial Team. She believes in providing practical solutions to clients and working collaboratively to achieve their business goals.

Katia assists clients with a variety of corporate and commercial matters, including business sales and purchases, finance, corporate structures/governance and shareholder and joint venture agreements. 

She also specialises in assisting iwi and hapū clients in the Māori commercial space, providing advice on post-settlement governance and how to best manage iwi assets.

Katia is born and bred in the Waikato, having gone to school in Cambridge and continuing her studies at The University of Waikato. It was an easy decision to start a family in Hamilton to be close to whānau. When she is not in the office, she enjoys staying active and spending time with her partner and sons.

Katia is a Trustee for the Oparau No.1 Block Trust and is currently the secretary for the Angel Casts Charitable Trust.

Katia joined the McCaw Lewis whānau in 2020. She is currently on parental leave.
