Laura Lincoln
Laura Lincoln holds a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Wollongong, a Bachelor of Health Science from the University of Sydney and a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice from the College of Law. She was admitted to practice by the Supreme Court of New South Wales and the High Court of Australia in 2018.
Laura practices exclusively in family law and has done so since commencing her career in the legal profession. She is passionate about achieving positive outcomes for her clients across all areas of family law.
As a parent herself, Laura understands how difficult it can be for children impacted by separation and how important it is to consider their needs throughout the process. Laura also recognises that her clients are experiencing one of the most difficult times in their lives, and offers professional legal advice tailored to their circumstances and navigates a pathway forward to resolve the matter.
Laura assists clients with their property matters, some of which have included corporate clients with complex company and trust structures and other assets held internationally. She has a keen eye for the forensic analysis of financial documents as is often required in complex cases.
Laura is also experienced in drafting and advising clients regarding Binding Financial Agreements and advising clients regarding Child Support disputes. Laura has drafted Child Support Applications and has successfully appealed decisions made by the Child Support Agency.
Laura always strives to settle matters amicably and without commencing court proceedings where possible, assisting clients to resolve their matters through negotiation, often attending dispute resolution conferences with her clients.
In the event that a matter is unable to settle, Laura is an experienced family law litigator, regularly appearing in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. Laura has also appeared before the Specialist Judges in Division 1 of the Court, which deals with the most complex Family Law disputes.
Outside of work, Laura enjoys spending time with her family, walking her dog Luna and catching up with friends over dinner. Laura’s interests include travel, real estate and dance.
