Specialists Accreditation

Family Law has become so complex that a lawyer must have a full-time commitment in order to keep ahead of all the changes and amendments to Family Law legislation. Recognising this, the Law Society of New South Wales introduced a Specialist Accreditation scheme in 1993.

The scheme requires lawyers to pass a series of examinations of Family Law issues. In addition, specialist candidates must demonstrate that they have been significantly involved in Family Law and that they are recognised for their knowledge, experience and temperament in Family Law.

Accreditation is reviewed annually, based upon the lawyer's continued extensive involvement in Family Law and satisfying annual requirements for study and research.

Karras Partners Lawyers is the only specialist legal practice in the Double Bay district dedicated to Family Law.
