Gerald Mallinick, one of the founders of the law firm now known as Webber Wentzel, who has for many years looked after the legal side of Sea Rescue, has decided to take a well earned rest to spend some time with his family.Always thinking how to do his bit for NSRI, Gerald has again made sure that NSRI is not left in the lurch. He has handed the pro bono reins to highly respected sailor Patrick Holloway, who is Webber Wentzel’s legal eagle in maritime matters.“ We are truly blessed to have had Gerald help us, and again now to have Patrick stepping up to the plate,” said NSRI CEO Ian Wienburg.“Better still, both Bradley Edas and Kirsty Gilmour in Patrick’s team have offered to help us every now and again when we need legal advice with contracts, properties and the like.” said Ian.
