The support from Rohan in the 1970's enabled us to buy our first house. Always a great sounding board to help resolve issues. I always found his integrity to be above and beyond - used to remind me 'If this is not good for both parties, do not go ahead.' Your attitude to life will be with us always.

We were very sad to hear of Rohan´s passing.
We have a generational connection with Rohan. He was our family lawyer for many years, a sailing buddy and a friend.
Rohan was an astute lawyer, a gentleman, a brilliant sailing buddy and a very likeable rogue.
I know he will be sadly missed by his family and friends. He has certainly left his mark on the world.
Our kindest thoughts are with Rohan´s family.
