By Victoria Frankel

Balance Family Law were recently announced as the winners of the Rising Stars in Family Law 2020 – Australia Award in the 6th Annual Legal Awards hosted by APAC Insider.

APAC Insider recognises that a good business is not necessarily determined by its size or reach. The focus of these awards is the quality and dedication of the business’ work and services. Awardees have demonstrated their expertise in their given field, dedication to customer service and commitment to excellence and innovation. Judges are reliant on feedback from existing and current clients and consider the vision and values the business in their endeavour to redefine industry best practice and stay ahead in the ambitious legal sector.

Pepe and Jono are proud and honoured to be able to provide a service that promotes harmony and balance throughout the difficult process of divorce and are grateful for the continual support and feedback provided to them by their clients and colleagues.

Outside of Balance, I am an adjunct lecturer and assessor with the College of Law in the ACT. In this role, I lecture and mentor future lawyers in the ACT and surrounding regions, as they complete their Practical Legal Training (which is the course you are required to complete to be able to practice as a lawyer).

When I am not lawyering I love to travel and have already made it to 18 countries across Europe and Asia. My personal goal is to travel to every continent, including Antarctica. My favourite destination so far is Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland, where I skydived over the Swiss Alps!

My innovative approach to law has seen me, and Balance Family Law recognised with over 23 national and international awards and accolades since 2020 including the prestigious Lawyer’s Weekly Family Law Partner of the Year 2021, Australian Law Awards Sole Practitioner of the Year 2021, Australian Law Awards Boutique Law Firm of the Year 2020 and the Gold Ausmumpreneur Award for a Service Business in 2020 and 2021. I have also received consecutive Chief Minister’s Awards for Excellence for my work with families and children on the frontline during my time working in child protection. In 2022 and 2023, I was invited to be a Judge at the Lawyers Weekly 30 Under 30 Awards, and Partner of the Year Awards, and the National Ausmumpreneur Awards.

As one of Australia’s most respected family lawyers and a gamechanger in the lawyer space, I look forward to working with you to navigate this challenging time in your life.
