About Genevieve

Genevieve Morgan is a Principal in the Family Law team based in Sydney. She is an Accredited Family Law Specialist recognised by the NSW Law Society and practices as a Collaborative Lawyer. Genevieve offers comprehensive advice across all facets of family law, including parenting disputes that may involve allegations of family violence, abuse, substance abuse, and relocation concerns. She also handles property matters featuring complex financial arrangements and valuation challenges, as well as child support and spousal maintenance issues. Genevieve approaches her work with a frank yet empathetic style, understanding the emotional strain that often accompanies relationship breakdowns. She aims to ensure clients are fully informed of their options and the potential outcomes, empowering them to make decisions that best suit their and their family’s future. While she advocates for alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation and collaborative law when suitable, Genevieve is also a strategic and resolute litigator when court proceedings are necessary. Beyond her practice, Genevieve serves as co-president of the Central Sydney Collaborative Forum and contributes to family law policy as a member of the Law Society of New South Wales Family Law Committee. She is listed on the Register of Practitioners in the High Court of Australia and holds memberships with several professional bodies, including the Law Society of New South Wales, the Family Law Section of the Law Council of Australia, the Women Lawyers Association of NSW, and various collaborative professional organisations. Her expertise has been recognised by Doyle's Guide, which named her among the Leading Parenting & Children's Matter Lawyers in NSW for 2024 and 2025 and recommended her for 2026, as well as a Leading Family and Divorce Lawyer in NSW for the same years. She was also identified as a Family Law Rising Star in 2019, 2021, and 2023. Genevieve holds a Bachelor of Communication, a Bachelor of Laws, and a Master of Applied Law specialising in family law.
