Dominic's legal journey began with his extensive education at the University of Sydney, where he achieved a Bachelor of Laws, a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences with honours in history, and a Master of Laws. This rigorous academic background has equipped him with profound insights into property law, commercial law, and contract disputes, further fuelled by his keen interest in judicial decision-making. Having built a robust practice in option contracts, conveyancing, easements, and property law-related litigation, Dominic is also deeply engaged with criminal law and justice. He frequently appears in person to represent clients in various courts, including the Local, District, Supreme, and Federal Courts. His collaboration with skilled barristers, including Senior Counsel and Queen's Counsel, has been instrumental in navigating complex jurisdictions. Dominic's commitment to advancing his legal acumen led him back to academic pursuits in 2020, where he completed a graduate certificate focusing on criminal law and advocacy with guidance from a retired Supreme Court judge. As a partner since 2015, Dominic continues to provide clients with practical advice, ensuring a client-focused approach that combines technical proficiency with a clear understanding of the legal landscape.
