Comment from Steven Gasser, Director of Family Law
“I am immensely proud of our Family team and what we have achieved together. The recognition in this year’s Chambers & Partners Guide reflects the commitment and care that run through everything we do for our clients.
We continue to grow in both depth and capability, with the recent additions of Kirsty Kelleher, and Camilla Hooper who was ranked as an Associate to Watch, further strengthening our practice. It has also been rewarding to see the progression of our home-grown talent — Jack McBride, Jon Keeley, and Ella Potter — and to see Ingrid Starcic recognised in Chambers and promoted to Associate Partner this year. These milestones are testament to the hard work and quality within the team.
I also want to acknowledge our brilliant paralegals and trainees Ally, Megan, Ellie and Briannah and Linda Humphreys, who is very much the glue that holds us together.
A special thanks to my fellow Partners Jacqueline Fitzgerald and William Hogg for their continued support and insight. Together, we are building a team that combines technical excellence with genuine care for our clients.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to all our clients and industry colleagues who took the time to provide feedback to Chambers and who continue to support us and our clients throughout the year.”
