Having worked in law for seven years after graduating from University of Canberra in 2015, Georgia Briggs opened Briggs Law in Canberra in February 2021, merging with the decade-old Wagga Wagga practice led by her mum, Julie Briggs. Both born communicators, Georgia says their key strengths are communication and advocacy, providing good advice to clients that they understand, and having a rapport with clients, which means they’re comfortable to ask questions.

Tell us about your organisation and your role within it.

“Briggs Law is a small firm, operating in Canberra, Wagga Wagga and all surrounding areas. We operate in many different areas between the two Principal Solicitors: Julie Briggs works in migration law, contract and employment law and arts law; I work in criminal, family, and care and protection law, and also Wills and Estates. I run the Canberra office and Julie the Wagga office, but we work together and for clients across both offices. We have a handful of dedicated support staff helping us with files and clients.”

What is the most rewarding part of your job?

“The most rewarding part of our work is helping people, particularly in what can be their most vulnerable or tough moments in life. We are so proud to be able to help guide people in an area of the world they may not be familiar with and provide clear and expert advice on their legal issues.”
