Annelise O’Kane

Solicitor

Annelise graduated from the University of Melbourne with a Bachelor of Arts initially and then completed her Juris Doctor in 2020 (Masters).

This background has provided her with an understanding of the intersection of different areas of law. However it was Family Law which took her interest and so she applied to become a Judge’s Associate.

This time at the Court provided an invaluable experience to commence Annelise’s career as a family lawyer. Annelise has detailed knowledge of court process and procedure and her experience allows her to navigate the court system to provide clients with practical advice.

She has been recognised in the peer voted Doyles Family Law Rising Stars – Victoria, 2025.

Annelise is committed to supporting her clients to achieve the best possible results for them.

Outside of work, she has interests in skiing, running and most sports as well as reading and spending time with family and friends.
