Lawyer

Wills and Estates

Amy is a Lawyer in our Wills and Estates team.

Prior to joining the firm, Amy worked for a boutique law firm and a medium size law firm focusing on estate planning and estate administration. Amy also gained hands-on experience in providing legal administrative support in a range of practice areas such as commercial, property, employment, family and superannuation law prior to her admission.

Recognising the handling of wills and estate matters can be emotionally taxing for clients, Amy takes the time to work closely with each client to better understand their unique circumstances and provide them with high quality legal solutions.

Amy was admitted to practice in 2021 after completing a Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Laws at Victoria University on an Achievement Scholarship.

Amy is currently on parental leave, and we look forward to her return in July 2025.
