Auckland district law society’s website www.adls.org.nz has been ranked fourth in New Zealand in the Business and Legal category of the Melbourne-based Hitwise Top 10 awards.

The awards are presented to web sites which receive the highest percentage of market share in their category across 160 industries over a specified quarterly period in New Zealand and Australia.

Hitwise said the award to ADLS reflected the comparison against other legal web sites in New Zealand including those of law firms, legal business providers and agencies offering advice and information based on legal matters, justice and legislation.
