Specialist Family Lawyers in Sydney

Norton Law Group is a boutique specialist family law firm based in Sydney CBD. Our experienced Sydney family lawyers provide strategic advice and representation to clients navigating separation, divorce and complex family law disputes.

Led by Senior Partner Franco Pomare, a Law Society of NSW Accredited Specialist in Family Law since 1994, our team combines decades of family law experience with contemporary thinking and a clear understanding of the financial, practical and personal consequences of relationship breakdown.

We advise and represent clients in matters including:

  • Complex parenting and child custody disputes;
  • Property settlements and division of assets;
  • High-net-worth and complex financial matters;
  • Companies, trusts, businesses and property portfolios;
  • Divorce and separation;
  • Spousal maintenance and child support;
  • Binding Financial Agreements;
  • International and cross-border family law;
  • Family violence and urgent court applications; and
  • Family law mediation and collaborative family law.

Every family is different, and every family law matter requires an individual strategy. We take the time to understand your circumstances, identify the immediate and longer-term risks and explain your legal options clearly.

Separation can affect almost every part of a person’s life: their children, home, business, finances and future security. Obtaining clear legal advice early can help you understand your rights, protect your position and avoid decisions that may make the dispute more difficult or expensive to resolve.

Our role is not simply to explain the law. We identify the immediate and longer-term issues, assess the available evidence and develop a strategy tailored to your family, financial circumstances and objectives.

Decades of Specialist Family Law Experience
Norton Law Group is led by Senior Partner Franco Pomare, who has practised family law for approximately 35 years and has been a Law Society of NSW Accredited Specialist in Family Law since 1994.

That experience brings more than technical legal knowledge. It provides the judgement developed through acting in thousands of family law matters: understanding when urgent action is necessary, when a negotiated resolution may better protect the client and when an apparently straightforward proposal may create significant practical or financial problems.

Partner Gabriella Pomare brings substantial experience in complex family law litigation together with a contemporary understanding of co-parenting, modern relationships and changing family structures. As a family lawyer, author, podcast host and media commentator, Gabriella combines strategic legal representation with an understanding of the practical and emotional dynamics that can influence family law disputes.

The Honourable Louise Henderson, a former Justice of the Family Court of Australia, has also joined Norton Law Group as a family law mediator. Louise brings more than 36 years of family law experience and former judicial insight to complex parenting and financial mediations.

Together with our broader legal team, this combines decades of specialist family law experience, modern thinking and former judicial perspective.
