Legal help from people who genuinely care
Most people don't come looking for a lawyer because they're having a great day.
They come because something important is happening.
Buying a home. Planning for the future. Navigating a major life event. Taking the next step in business.
Whatever brings you here, you want clear advice, honest guidance, and someone who can help you move forward with confidence.
That's what we're here for.
Helping everyday people get things sorted
At Parr Law, we believe legal advice should help make life easier, not more complicated.
Our role is to help you understand your options, protect your interests, and navigate important decisions with confidence. We'll give you the advice you need, explain things clearly, and help you understand what comes next.
Practical legal support focused on helping you achieve the outcome you're working towards.

Meet Chris Lapage
I became a lawyer because I enjoy helping people make progress in their lives.
I understand that legal matters are rarely just legal matters. They're often connected to the things people care about most.
I’ve worked in both large national firms and smaller local practices, giving me experience across a wide range of legal matters and clients.
Before becoming a lawyer, I spent more than a decade working in professional rugby as an analyst and coach. That experience shaped my practical, people-focused approach to problem solving and communication.
Today, I bring that same mindset to legal practice: listen carefully, communicate clearly, and help people move forward.
"Chris Lapage assisted me with a variety of legal matters. I found Chris to be a rock of support, he's extremely gentle-mannered and calming to be around, he explained all the documentation to me in simple to understand terms, making sure I knew what I was agreeing to when signing the forms. He was patient throughout my many questions and queries, and overall I feel like I had a friend during a hard time. I am very grateful to Chris. Thank you."
