Australian law news

Law is an incredibly dynamic field. Each day you get to work and have to know what the new case law is, and what new legislation has been asked. The law is always changing to reflect our society's values more and to create a fair and equitable environment for us to live and work. Australia is lucky to have such a vibrant and open legal system and I feel lucky to be a participant in our legal system. This site is a collection of my thoughts and analysis into current and historical cases and interesting trends in legislation across the federal and state system.
