5 vital checks you must do when you buy a property
For most of us, a house will be the single biggest purchase we ever make. The process of house-hunting can be exhausting, with dozens of properties to view and consider.
We’re open and exercising all the required Covid protocols. The team at UML look forward to seeing you soon.

Based in Epsom, we provide a full suite of legal services from straightforward property transactions to commercial contracts, asset planning and corporate governance.

If it’s important to you, it’s important to us.
Urlich Milne Lawyers opened its doors in April 2012 but the firm’s origins stretch back quite a few years earlier. After qualifying as lawyers, Janice Urlich and Fairlie Milne gained experience in a succession of large Auckland law practices. Fairlie also followed a career as a business owner and franchisee, developing commercial insights that many lawyers never gain.
Joining forces, Janice and Fairlie decided to open a boutique legal practice in their home ground of Epsom – close to the city but without the property overheads and accessibility issues that many downtown firms face. They based their new practice around three core principles:
It sounds so simple – but so many lawyers fall down on this. When you need to talk to Janice or Fairlie, they’ll be there for you. Urlich Milne Lawyers operates with a flat structure and direct lines of communication to the partners. And there are four car parks outside our front door, so visiting the office won’t be an exercise in awkward transport logistics.
The legal world can sometimes be a bewildering place, and specialist advice can sometimes be hard to relate to reality. Urlich Milne sees its job as making your options clear and straightforward. You are best served when your lawyer listens carefully, explains the issues clearly, and works efficiently to help you obtain the result you’re looking for.
The firm’s partners live and work in the Mt Eden/Epsom area and enjoy being part of the community. Urlich Milne provides sponsorship for several local school teams, including the football First XIs at Auckland Grammar School and St. Peters College and always takes an interest in the progress of budding local sporting stars. The law is ultimately about people, and lawyers are no exception.
