We are very proud to say that in the last week our Principal Solicitor Georgia Briggs ran, and was successful in, a Doli Incapax hearing.

According to information provided to the office, this was the first Doli Incapax hearing to ever occur in the Territory.

The principle of Doli Incapax is a fundamental aspect of our criminal justice system, governing the criminal responsibility of a child between the ages of 12 and 14 years old.

A milestone moment for Ms Briggs, our office and the ACT criminal jurisdiction.

Briggs Law was proud to sponsor CIT Photography students in their end of year exhibition for 2024: Perspectives. The exhibition allows each student to showcase their year's work, from their favourite to their most technical, on display at the High Court of Australia for the next week. We encourage all the visit!

Our firm is so proud to support the arts, from sponsorships of exhibitions or artists to pro bono work for Arts Centres, boards or individual artists. We love being able to encourage our creative counterparts through contributions from the firm.

Georgia even personally added a new piece to her collection, being honoured to be the first ever formal buyer of student Orlanda, who photographed a stunning aurora australis which will now take pride of place in her office! The moment was commemorated with a (quite resourcefully crafted) 'SOLD!' sign.

Yesterday our Principal Solicitor Georgia had the pleasure of presenting to 160 High School Students in the Riverina about their rights and obligations under the Law. This year's focus, at the request of several teacher/schools, was on Defamation and Social Media.

Briggs Law is very proud to assist with the education and guidance of Young People when it comes to law, an area they are often unfamiliar with despite their daily engagement!

The Take Charge Youth Forum is a great initiative by REROC and we were very pleased to have been invited back for 2024. We hope to be rolling out the FULY program into schools and other youth organisations and forums in the future.

Our Principal Solicitor Georgia joined a panel discussion along with Ian Metz and Paul Edmonds to discuss transitioning from student to solicitor and other Tips and Tricks for New Lawyers for the ACT Law Society's Intensive Conference yesterday.

We were very pleased to be invited to speak and provide some key points to, and answer burning questions from, the next generation of solicitors.
