Show Notes

In today’s episode, we sit down with Helen Davison and Dora Ko to explore best practice when representing culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) clients in family law.

Dora began her career in private practice before moving to Women’s Legal Service. In 2022, she was appointed as a Judicial Registrar in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2), and since 2025, she has been leading a busy mediation practice.

Passionate about educating the profession, Dora regularly writes and speaks on the importance of culturally competent representation. In this episode, she shares practical insights every family lawyer should hear.
