About
Milburns Law

Our Principal, Lesley Powell, was admitted as a solicitor of the Supreme Court of Queensland in 1999 after a lengthy period as an Associate to a District Court Judge. Lesley is also admitted as a solicitor of the High Court of Australia.

Lesley has extensive experience in all areas of Family Law and Estate Law. She is dedicated to providing her clients and colleagues with an amicable, respectful, and sensitive approach to resolving matters, prioritising solutions that avoid dispute-driven litigation whenever possible. However, if this is not possible and all avenues have been exhausted, she is an experienced and competent litigator.

Throughout her distinguished and lengthy legal career, Lesley has also developed broad experience in company and trust related issues, as well as Criminal and Property Law, which can often intersect with her chosen practice areas.
