For our summer law programme, we bring all our summer law clerks together in either Ōtautahi/Christchurch or Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland for two days of induction into all things Anthony Harper. Clerks learn about our business, our strategy and our values, as well as every-day skills like using our software systems.
