I am an accred­it­ed fam­i­ly law spe­cial­ist by the Law Soci­ety of New South Wales and a trained col­lab­o­ra­tive lawyer. I have been work­ing as a Fam­i­ly Lawyer for over 24 years and also have exten­sive expe­ri­ence in the areas of com­mer­cial and per­son­al injury law. 

My prac­tice is exclu­sive­ly ded­i­cat­ed to all aspects of fam­i­ly law and I have a pas­sion for achiev­ing work­able solu­tions for my clients whether that is through agree­ment or the court system.

Expe­ri­ence

I pride myself on help­ing clients obtain the best pos­si­ble out­come for their per­son­al sit­u­a­tion. As a result I am well respect­ed for my skills in both lit­i­ga­tion and alter­na­tive dis­pute res­o­lu­tion. What sets me apart is that I am approach­able and bring a car­ing and prac­ti­cal approach to the res­o­lu­tion of par­ent­ing and finan­cial disputes.

As well as fam­i­ly law, I have pre­vi­ous qual­i­fi­ca­tion in nurs­ing and pos­sess a real under­stand­ing of life’s chal­lenges which is invalu­able for my fam­i­ly law clients.
