As the first female Partner in Braye Cragg’s long history, I am immensely proud to lead our team.
Each case presents a unique challenge and an opportunity to make a real difference in both my client’s life and the Newcastle community. It’s not just about securing the best outcome in court, it’s about ensuring the best outcome for the individual we represent. I offer more than just legal representation – I provide a chance to defend my client’s reputation and integrity.
With regular appearances in court, I’m fortunate to have a dedicated team who are always up to speed and ready to respond to any questions, ensuring our clients receive the immediate advice they need.
Being recognised as a Leading Regional New South Wales Criminal Lawyer and a recommended New South Wales Traffic & DUI Lawyer in the Doyles Guide Rankings from 2019 – 2023 is not just an honour, but a testament to our commitment to excellence.
