Meet our Legal Director

Hi! I'm Tahnee ...

... a compassionate and empathetic barrister & solicitor specialising in family law and well-being.

I appear in litigation trials and provide legal advice in property settlements, parenting matters, international child abduction and Hague Convention applications, consent orders, and divorce.

I have successfully advocated for clients in the Federal Circuit Court, Family Court, Supreme Court, Magistrates Court and interstate jurisdictions.

I have both private and public sector experience and was the Solicitor for the Northern Territory's in-house lawyer with the Department of Health, Police Fire and Emergency Services and the Crime Victims Services Unit.

I graduated with a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Business with a double major in Management & Entrepreneurship from James Cook University, and I am admitted to the Supreme Court and High Court of Australia.

I enjoy going to gym, cycling, spending time at the beach, reading non-fiction, fostering animals, and meditation. My interests also extend to business start-ups & entrepreneurship.

Embrace the New You

Separation is often portrayed in a negative light, and when a relationship ends, someone must be at fault.
