I became a lawyer in 1992 and have been a Law Society of New South Wales Property Law Accredited Specialist Law since 1997.  I have a Master of Environmental Law from the University of Sydney.  My expertise in land law led to me writing the syllabus for and teaching property law for a Master’s degree for the College of Law, Sydney. 

​

Before moving to Forster in 2014 with my husband, I practised in Sydney CBD and suburban law firms until I started my own practice.  I have experience in most areas of law but specifically

​

• Commercial Law encompassing most aspects of business law including franchising, shareholder and partnership agreements

• Commercial disputes including building disputes

• Corporate law including risk management

• Property law not limited to conveyancing but more complicated issues such as creation and removal of covenants and easements, and old system, rural and shared titles

• Leasing, retail and commercial

• Wills, Estates, Powers of Attorney and Guardianship

• Employment law, employment contracts and unfair dismissal applications

• Litigation in most areas

• Family law 

 

I have appeared in the Local, District, Supreme, Federal and Family Courts and several tribunals including the State Parole Board.  I have been a member of several Law Society committees and worked with the profession in presenting seminars for the profession on several areas of law.

 

In Sydney for 12 years I was also a lecturer teaching practical training to new lawyers in NSW, interstate and in London and also taught Sports Arbitration Law.  The teaching of law requires a sound knowledge and understanding of law.

 

My practice in Forster has covered several of the above areas and I am keen to continue to provide service to clients in the Great Lakes, Manning and Forster-Tuncurry areas.  As a sole practitioner with low overheads I offer a discreet and personal service at reasonable rates.
