Julia Arena

Julia is a Solicitor in our Civil Law team.

Julia joined Andersons in November 2017 as the recipient of UniSA’s Tort Law prize sponsored by Andersons.

Impressed by her hard-working nature and quick learning abilities, Andersons decided to employ Julia as a Law Clerk until she was admitted to practice in September 2018.

Julia holds a Bachelor of Laws (Honours) and a Bachelor of Journalism and Professional Writing, as well as a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice.

Trained by Andersons’ Chief Operations Officer, Dion McCaffrie and working directly with Partner Suzanne Pinyon, Julia has gained invaluable skills from two of the State’s best.

But it’s her background in journalism and passion for all forms of communication that gives Julia an edge over other solicitors. For her, communication is paramount — whether that’s communication with her opponents, the courts, or most importantly, her clients.

A regular writer for Andersons LawTalk blog and various other Australian and South Australian news websites, Julia ensures our team is up-to-date with legislative changes, Parliamentary inquiries and other legal news. 

Julia is also a member of the Law Society of South Australia’s Bulletin Committee which sees her advising, assisting, writing for and providing feedback to the Editor of the monthly Law Society journal, The Bulletin.

When she isn’t drafting documents, emailing, researching, or writing blogs, Julia can be found on a plane to just about anywhere.
