Doyle's Guide has released its family law rankings for 2021, with lawyers from Lander & Rogers' national Family & Relationship Law group once again recognised as leaders in their areas of specialty. Twelve of our family lawyers have been listed across five categories. We continue to be ranked first-tier for Family & Divorce Law in Australia, and in Melbourne.
The results follow a strong year for Lander & Rogers' Family & Relationship Law group, which expanded its practice into Brisbane in January 2020 and consolidated our position as the largest and most experienced family law group in Australia. Earlier this year, the group's partners also became qualified arbitrators, having completed training with the Australian Institute of Family Law Arbitrators and Mediators (AIFLAM) to offer clients an alternative to litigation in family law property matters.
