Meet The Team
Ruby grew up in Gippsland before venturing out to study law at Bond University in Queensland, at the tender age of 16. Ruby was one of the youngest people ever admitted to legal practice and has made regular Court appearances since the age of 21.
​
Ruby began her legal career as a clerk for a Property and Family Law firm on the Gold Coast. Ruby worked at what was then Queensland's largest conveyancing firm prior to her admission, before moving to a general practice in South Gippsland where she focused heavily on family law and criminal law matters.
In 2016 Ruby commenced work for a suburban firm, practicing exclusively in Family law and Intervention Order matters. Ruby has exclusively practiced in family law since that time holding the position of Senior Associate at a Family Law firm in Melbourne's CBD for the past 3 years.
​
With invaluable knowledge and experience behind her, Ruby has returned home to assist her community and to provide high quality representation right here at home.
