Max was lucky enough to grow up in the top of the south after his parents immigrated from Germany in 1988. The first port of call was Kaiteriteri before moving to the end of the road in Mārahau where Max again lives, now with his young family.
Between graduating with a Bachelor of Laws from Victoria University and joining Knapps in November 2020, Max chased summers splitting his time between the fjords of Norway and the equally beautiful Abel Tasman National Park working with boat charters in the tourism industry.
COVID rapidly altered his plans and Max jumped at the opportunity to join Knapps and work within his community.
After starting in Nelson, Max moved to our Motueka office in 2022 where, with the support of our specialist teams in Richmond and Nelson, he assists clients in all facets of law that Knapps undertakes.
Max has a real passion for the Nelson/Tasman area and is a well respected team member both internally and with clients.
