Macpherson Kelley boosts family law practice
Macpherson Kelley has added three new lawyers to its family law team, including one principal lawyer.

Macpherson Kelley has welcomed principal lawyer Natalie Fielding along with senior associate Violet Lazari and lawyer Natalie Virgona to its Victorian offices.
Supported by her team, Ms Fielding said she is thrilled to join a firm that goes the extra mile when it comes to client service.
“Family law demands specialised care and compassion when it comes to advising clients due to the challenging and often personal nature of matters and disputes,” she said.
“For me, it was integral that I worked with a firm where servicing clients’ needs is firmly engrained in its culture.”
Commenting on the additions, national managing principal lawyer Grant Guenther expressed how the team’s expansion would build on the existing talent of Victoria’s family law team.
“We’ve seen our family law team really step up and get some excellent results for their clients. As such, we wanted to make sure that the team grows with the increase in quantity and complexity of family law matters coming through the door,” he said.
“Natalie brings the specialised expertise we need to take our client offerings to the next level. Her contribution will be invaluable to the success of this group, and we are very grateful to have her and the team on board.”
