About Us

Your expert legal team, based in Epsom, Auckland.

Urlich Milne Lawyers opened its doors in 2012 when Janice Urlich and Fairlie Milne started practice together after developing their careers in a number of Auckland law practices. The firm is committed to offering clients the highest standard of legal advice while working efficiently and staying accessible to clients.

Client-focused.

Our legal advice will always be tailored to your real-life requirements. We understand the pressure of deadlines, so we will outline your options with the desired outcome in mind. We believe it’s not a solution unless it works for you, your family or your business.



Accessible.

Our Epsom office is easy to find, with parking on site. We’re a tight team of specialists, so you will have the opportunity to build a relationship with your trusted advisors over time.

Team players.

We offer a range of services, with particular expertise in property law, business, trusts and asset planning. We also work closely with other lawyers and professionals in related fields. If we think you could benefit from specialist advice in an area outside our core expertise, we will refer you to our network of experts.
