For lawyers

Every new NZ company needs a lawyer — reach them first

A new company just incorporated. There's no shareholder agreement yet, no employment contracts, no terms of trade, no commercial lease advice. The directors are about to make expensive decisions without legal guidance. FreshFirms tells you the day they exist.

FreshFirms watches the public NZ Companies Register every weekday and emails you a filtered feed of newly-registered companies — with director names, business type, suburb and registration date. These are founders who haven't yet engaged a commercial lawyer, and who will need one within weeks: for shareholder agreements, company constitutions, employment contracts, supplier agreements, intellectual property protection and lease reviews.

With ~60,000–65,000 new companies incorporating in New Zealand each year, the pipeline is constant. A single new client relationship from a well-timed introduction — even just a shareholder agreement and employment template — can be worth NZ$3,000–$10,000 in the first year and a long-term referral relationship. On Pro you can filter by industry to focus on the sectors you specialise in.

Pick your region and cadence — weekly on Starter, daily on Pro — and be the firm that reaches out with a brief, helpful note while competitors wait for referrals.

FAQ

Why target companies the week they incorporate?

New directors face legal decisions immediately — shareholder agreements, employment contracts, terms of trade. The firm that contacts them first usually wins the work before they find anyone else.

What services do new companies typically need from a law firm?

Shareholder agreements, company constitutions, employment contracts, supplier and client agreements, intellectual property basics, lease reviews and commercial advice as the business grows.

Is this data from the official NZ Companies Register?

Yes. FreshFirms sources all data from the public Companies Office register and the NZBN service, both operated by MBIE.

Can I filter by industry?

Yes, on the Pro plan — so a firm specialising in construction, hospitality or tech can focus on the most relevant leads.
