Madeleine joined the highly regarded Elizabeth Evatt Chambers in September 2021. She is a capable Family Law barrister, acknowledged for her outstanding practice and her empathetic and methodical approach to advocacy.

Madeleine understands the emotional strain placed on her clients when faced with the daunting arena of Family Law. She articulates the law in terms they understand, reassuring them, and is dedicated to working towards finding the best possible outcomes.

Doyle’s Guide has listed Madeleine as South Australia’s ‘Leading Family Law Barrister ‘in 2022. This noteworthy praise is justified because of her exemplary conduct and expertise in Family Law. That same year, Madeleine joined the SA Bar and was mentored by two of Adelaide’s expert Family Law barristers, Taanya Lewis and Mark Anderson, a learning experience that significantly contributed to her successful career.

Before joining Chambers, Madeleine commenced a Masters in Family Law and completed Collaborative Training, sharing her knowledge, and learning from other professionals, a methodology that underpins her precision and confidence.

Wanting to encourage and nurture new talent, Madeleine is a committed advocate for the profession, leading and facilitating an annual mentoring program for junior practitioners designed to fast-track lawyers to find their feet in an emotionally charged and complicated area of the law.

Having completed a Bachelor of Law, and a Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Psychology), degrees awarded by Flinders University, Madeleine brings a pragmatic and deliberate approach to resolving sensitive and complex disputes.

Today Madeleine is a sought-after Family Law barrister who advocates regularly in both divisions of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.
