Rout Milner Fitchett is one of Nelson’s longest established law firms. We can take care of all your everyday legal needs such as Residential and Business Conveyancing (including subdivisions and leases), Trusts, Estates, Wills and Relationship Property together with more specialised fishing and admiralty matters, Employment and Immigration issues and Commercial Litigation.

Rout Milner Fitchett has gone through several incarnations since its establishment in the 1880s. In the early 1940s Ivan Fitchett joined Messrs Vernon Rout and William Milner, who had been in partnership from the 1920s. Following their deaths, he purchased the practice in 1945. His son John Fitchett, the present principal, joined the firm in 1972.

Over the past sixty years a number of partners have come and gone, but the Fitchett line has been unbroken. With a third generation Fitchett currently at Law School, there is every chance of the tradition continuing for the next sixty years.

John Fitchett is now a sole practitioner. His long association with both the firm and the city gives a breadth and depth to Rout Milner Fitchett.
