Clarissa is a wife and mum who is passionate about relationships, people and family. She is using her industry knowledge and skill to change the way Australian families experience divorce and separation. She is known as ‘The Happy Family Lawyer’ because she believes that your divorce can be something you can look back on with pride.
In 2013, Clarissa started writing her thoughts on how to have a 'happy divorce' on a simple blog called 'The Happy Family Lawyer'. What began as her weekly ramblings has fast become a popular resource centre for families navigating the legal aspects of their divorce and separation, who are seeking an amicable and dignified divorce.
In 2015, Clarissa published her first book, Splitsville: How to Separate, Stay Out of Court and Stay Friends – a resource for separating families.
Clarissa’s own story of finding happiness in her legal career has inspired this new direction and this book. Clarissa is now determined to be an active part of the dialogue encouraging lawyers to consider better ways of finding balance, health and longevity in their careers.
In 2016, Clarissa launched the Happy Lawyer, Happy Life podcast in response to the growing number of lawyers and other professionals reaching out to her and looking for ways of finding ‘Happiness’ in their careers. Each week, Clarissa interviews a lawyer with a compelling story and taps into how other lawyers balance life, law and happiness in their careers.
Clarissa is regularly called upon to present to family lawyers and other professionals on matters relating to law, life and business.view less
