Niamh O’Dowd

Admissions and qualifications

• Solicitor, High Court of Australia, admitted 2016.
• Solicitor, Supreme Court of Queensland, admitted 2016.
• LLB (Hons), Bond University.
• Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice, Bond University.

Niamh has practised in family law and nothing else since her admission. Before her legal career she worked in client facing roles in Australia and overseas, which is a large part of why she is quick to work out what a client actually wants out of a separation rather than what they have been told they should want.

What she acts in

Niamh’s family law practice covers:

• Complex parenting disputes.
• Relocation.
• Property disputes and division.
• Domestic violence.
• Spousal maintenance and child support.
• Financial agreements.
• De facto relationships.
• Same sex relationships.
• Divorce.

She works towards resolution first, because the money spent litigating a property pool is money that comes out of that pool. But resolution is not always available, and when proceedings are required she prepares the court documents, appears for clients and instructs counsel in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.

What clients tend to get early from Niamh is a clear read on the key issues in their matter, so they know which fights are worth having and which are not.
