JUDGE GAVIN MANSFIELD
His Honour Judge Mansfield was appointed as Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2) in December of 2021. His Honour owned and operated a small business before deciding to embark on a new venture and undertake his Juris Doctor. In 2011, following the completion of his postgraduate legal studies at the University of Canberra, he was admitted to practice and soon after commenced working at the office of the ACT Director of Public Prosecutions. This led to a busy career as a solicitor advocate in criminal, civil, and family law litigation at the Canberra law firm, O’Connor Harris & Co., during which time he was made Partner.
As a Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court, his Honour currently presides solely over matters in the family law division, deciding on parenting and property issues at the final hearing stage of proceedings. His Honour also has an interest in the improvement of the intersection between the Court and state departments in deciding matters that involve Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families.
