Stephanie Burlace

Stephanie has been in practice for 25 years, primarily focusing on family and criminal law. She has been involved in numerous family cases as a lawyer for child or advocating for adult parties, in child care, relationship property and protection order cases.

Stephanie is a strong advocate for her clients and children. She is mindful of the needs in sensitive domestic violence cases, ensuring safety is a focus for those involved.  She provides clear, accurate legal advice in a timely manner. Providing support and guidance, as well as strategic positioning is a strong skill for her; yet this is clearly balanced with a focus, whenever possible, to not undermine existing relationships.

Stephanie clearly has enjoyed her long career to date and can reflect on a number of past successes, particularly those within the familial relationship where families have been able to come together, having been encouraged to successfully focus on what is truly important to them. Foremost she notes that “family has always been incredibly important to me. I  was fortunate to have had wonderful parents to learn from and some of my closest family members are those I have chosen to be family later in life”.
