Alex Witten-Hannah

Alex Witten-Hannah is a lawyer known for advocating on behalf of homeowners, particularly in cases involving local council regulations and heritage rules. He recently represented the owners of a villa in Mt Eden, Auckland, who faced an abatement notice from the council for installing double-glazed windows without prior consent. Witten-Hannah criticized the council's actions as overly restrictive, arguing that modernizing historical homes with energy-efficient solutions should be supported rather than penalized.
