Amanda is a dual-qualified barrister of both Australia and England & Wales. She first began practising in 2012 as a solicitor in Sydney, Australia, specialising in family and criminal law matters. She has represented clients in high-conflict children’s matters, property divisions, and all types of criminal cases (drugs, sexual assaults, fraud, arson, robbery and serious violence). Amanda regularly appeared in Sydney metropolitan Courts equivalent to the English County, Crown and High Courts.

Amanda relocated to London in 2017 and worked predominantly for local authorities as an in-house advocate in children’s matters before being called to the Bar of England & Wales in 2020. Amanda then specialised in family law, appearing in both public and private law matters, particularly children’s law matters representing parents, Guardians and local authorities.

Amanda was then called the Bar in Australia in 2023 and in this jurisdiction also specialises in family law (private children and financial remedies). She is now based primarily in Sydney, travelling to London each year for long periods of time to maintain her practice and international family law skill set.
