In early 2016 Karen Overend left her partnership in New Zealand’s leading legal firm Duncan Cotterill to start her own company – Overend & Associates. Her goal was to establish a firm with a straight talking, pragmatic approach to property and construction law. Simon Inc created a brand positioning platform for them which distanced them from other legal firms in the country. The visual identity aimed to challenge stereotypes of how a legal firm should look and feel, focusing on aligning them more closely with the sector they were operating within.
