She regularly writes and delivers papers for specialist family law seminars dealing with developments in property cases, superannuation, child support and international child abduction.

Attorney General Philip Ruddock appears pleased with the new appointment: “She is a highly regarded lawyer with the personal attributes required of a judicial officer,” Ruddock said.
