Our Team : Koffels Solicitors and Barristers

Established in 1990, Koffels Solicitors and Barristers is a Sydney-based law firm known for combining legal excellence with clear, practical advice. As a family-named firm, we take pride in building long-term relationships with our clients and delivering outcomes that genuinely matter to them.

We act for individuals, families, and businesses across a wide range of legal matters, from complex litigation and family law to historical institutional abuse compensation claims. Our approach is grounded in a deep understanding of the real-world pressures our clients face, whether they are navigating deeply personal issues or managing commercial risk.

What sets Koffels apart is our strong commercial insight. The firm’s principal has first-hand experience owning and operating a successful multinational advertising business, and our broader team brings qualifications and experience in business, finance, and accounting. This allows us to provide legal advice that is not only technically sound, but commercially and personally informed.

Above all, we are committed to being accessible, strategic, and client-focused — delivering legal solutions with professionalism, empathy, and clarity.

“The opportunity to understand our clients’ circumstances so that our advice is practical, insightful and tactically correct is paramount.”

“I really believe in representing my clients’ interests. The satisfaction in my work comes from helping them succeed.”

“One of the most important skills in life is to be able to listen. It is imperative we listen so we can understand our clients.”

“A lawyer should bring to the table a strong work ethic, technical competence and an ability to convey accurate and honest advice.”

“My varied experience has provided me with a strong foundation for accurate, succinct advice, aimed at delivering the best possible result.”

For me, the most rewarding part of private practice is helping clients achieve their desired outcomes. I pride myself on working closely with my clients and their other advisers to find commercially pragmatic and effective solutions to their legal issues.

“I understand that when done correctly, a civil matter can result in not only monetary compensation but result in my client’s empowerment..”
