The 2026 listing of leading New South Wales Family Lawyers (High-Value & Complex Property Matters) details individuals who have been specifically highlighted not only for their expertise generally in family law matters but also for their ability and track record in matters where the contested net asset pool is significant (i.e. in excess of AUD $100 million) or there are complex commercial, property, estate planning and taxation matters that need to be taken in to account as part of the overall resolution process. These lawyers should also been viewed as having particular expertise in preparing Binding Financial Agreements for individuals and families with significant net worth.
