About Claire

Claire joined the team at Turnbull Hill Lawyers in 2018, having graduated from the University of Newcastle with a Bachelor of Communication (with Distinction) in 2015 and a Bachelor of Laws (Hons) and Diploma of Legal Practice in 2017. She was admitted as a lawyer to the Supreme Court of New South Wales in February 2018 and is also on the High Court register of practitioners.

Claire’s approach

She assumes an empathetic and personable approach with her clients to ensure they feel supported throughout the difficult family law process.

What Claire does

Regularly appearing in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, Claire has the experience and confidence to represent clients in complex parenting and property matters when Court intervention is necessary. However, Claire understands that, for many clients, avoiding the emotional and financial toll of Court proceedings is a priority. Claire’s primary focus is helping clients obtain favourable outcomes while avoiding the cost and delay of litigation, through negotiations, mediation and alternative dispute resolution processes.

Claire acts in financial matters involving complex corporate structures, trusts, and self-managed superannuation funds. Claire also acts in often high-conflict parenting matters, including relocation disputes, urgent applications, family violence, drug and alcohol abuse.

Claire volunteers at University Legal Centre advice nights from time to time to provide free legal advice to those who may not be able to afford legal services.
