The Honourable Robert Benjamin AM SC

Lessons from the Bench

Presented by The Honourable Robert Benjamin AM SC


An exclusive opportunity for Family Report Writers to hear directly from His Honour Robert Benjamin in this special session: Lessons from the Bench.


Drawing on decades of experience in the Family Court, His Honour will reflect on trauma-informed practice, what truly distinguishes a high-quality family report, and why the best interests of the child - not the competing narratives of parents - must remain paramount in our thinking. Known for his intellectual rigour and, at times, his willingness to think beyond the conventional, this is a rare opportunity to gain insight from one of the Court’s most respected judicial minds.


A conversation not to be missed.
