Maynard Marks has joined Halliwell, a global forensic engineering and technical specialist business. This marks an exciting new chapter, creating new opportunities for our clients and people across New Zealand and the wider Asia-Pacific region.

Halliwell is a multidisciplinary forensic and technical consultancy supporting insurers, reinsurers, brokers, legal firms, property owners and public sector organisations. Its services span risk determination, loss investigation, remediation, project delivery and litigation support.

These capabilities bolster Maynard Marks’ extensive experience supporting clients across remediation projects, risk mitigation, building disputes, insurance assessments and other complex property and building-related matters.

Founded in 2008, Maynard Marks has grown to a team of over 60 specialists based in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch. Our multidisciplinary services include building surveying, structural engineering, architectural design, quantity surveying, project management and environmental and asbestos consulting.

Maynard Marks will continue to operate under the co-branded identity Maynard Marks, A Halliwell Company, and, in due course, the business will transition fully to the Halliwell brand.

Stuart Wilson, Director of Maynard Marks, said: "Since founding Maynard Marks, we have built a business dedicated to helping clients navigate complex property and building challenges while contributing to safer, higher-quality and more sustainable built environments. Joining Halliwell represents an exciting next chapter for our team, providing access to broader regional resources and technical expertise while creating new opportunities for our people and clients."

Colin Taylor, Managing Director of Halliwell APAC, said: "The transaction with Maynard Marks is a highly complementary addition to our growing multidisciplinary offering in the Asia Pacific region. Their strong reputation, depth of technical expertise and market-leading capabilities across the property and building sectors significantly strengthen our presence in New Zealand and enhance the services we can provide to clients throughout the region. We are delighted to welcome the entire Maynard Marks team to Halliwell."

While this marks an important milestone for Maynard Marks, our focus remains the same: delivering trusted, practical and technically robust advice that helps our clients achieve better outcomes for their properties, projects and communities. We look forward to continuing to build on this commitment as a part of Halliwell.
