About

What is this blog about?

This blog is a short summary of some of the recent decisions of the Supreme Court of New South Wales and NSW Court of Appeal in the area of will disputes, family provision, inheritance claims and elder abuse. I often find some of the cases fascinating and there is much to be learned from each case the Court hands down. This is by no means a summary of every case, but cases that have caught my eye.

As an estate litigator, it also helps me keep on top of any changes to the law, and hone strategies to help my clients.

If you want to see me blog on a particular case, please feel free to send me suggestions.

Me

In 2024 I was called to the Bar.

Before that, I was a solicitor and achieved the status of Accredited Specialist in Wills & Estates Law in 2019. There are not many of these in NSW (less than 70) and it’s a challenging process to achieve accreditation. 

I am good at what I do and achieve results for my clients.

In 2020- 2023 Doyle’s Guide recognised me as a Leading Solicitor for Estate Litigation (recommended), and in 2024 as Leading junior counsel (recommended).
