Paul attended Melbourne Grammar School and the Australian National University before recently completing his Masters at the College of Law.

 

Paul has a strong background in family law, practising almost exclusively in that jurisdiction both in Melbourne and Canberra. Prior to joining the Bar, Paul was employed with Victoria Legal Aid as a Senior Family Lawyer. He is well versed in all aspects of family law practice and has extensive advocacy experience in the Federal Magistrates Court and the Family Court of Australia. In late 2010, Paul appeared in a successful nullity application founded on the pressure exerted on a bride by her parents to marry the groom of their choosing in India (Kreet & Sampir [2011] FamCA 22).

Paul has a passion for advocacy and in addition to family law he is keen to appear in mediations, criminal matters, intervention orders and in the Children's Court.

Paul is a keen kite surfer and is reading with Patrick O'Shannessy.
