To Specialise In

New Guinea Work

IN this issue there appears a profes sional announcement by Parish, Patience & Mclntyre, solicitors, of 2 O’Connell Street, Sydney.

This firm has been established in Syd ney for many years, and has an exten sive commercial and general practice, with connections in the Australian Capital Territory, throughout Australia and in England.

It is intended that an office will be opened at Port Moresby shortly, under the supervision of Mr. D. L. Mclntyre, a solicitor of the Supreme Court of New South Wales. This office will maintain direct contact with the Sydney office.

We are informed that it is the inten tion of this firm to “specialise” in all forms of New Guinea work, and especi ally the settlement of New Guinea estates. The death —and in many cases, intestacy—of so many New Guinea resi dents, and the innumerable claims upon the Way Damage Commission and other Government instrumentalities, have cre ated a great deal of business which can b dealt with advantageously by experi enced solicitors. The service offered by the firm should be of value to Territories residents and to commercial houses with interests extending to the mainland.
