Accredited Specialist “Proven Expertise”
Zora Kekeff is a
Family Law Specialist Accredited by the Law
Society of New South Wales.
The Law Society’s Specialist
Accreditation Scheme, certifies Solicitors who
are specialists in their field and sets very
high standards for Solicitors wanting to
specialize. The Law Society accreditation
standards were developed to provide clients with
a way of identifying experienced Solicitors and
require each Accredited Specialist Solicitor to
prove the quality of their skills and services
in their chosen field of practice as follows:-
The Solicitor must firstly have
been in full time practice for at least 5 years
and must have at least three years experience in
working in the specialty area, and show to have
over 25% of the cases in their workload in the
specialist area before they qualify to seek to
become a Specialist.
The Solicitor
must then pass to high standard, difficult
written and oral examinations in the area of law
chosen to specialize in as well as examinations
in communication with clients. The Solicitor
must demonstrate to the Accreditation Board, a
high standard of ability in problem solving and
client service as part of the Specialist
Accreditation process. In addition, to enable a
Solicitor to continue to maintain the Accredited
Specialist title, a Solicitor must complete in
each year a minimum of 20 hours of mandatory
continuing legal education in the specialist and
associated areas.
This ensures that
the standard of legal services provided by an
Accredited Specialist in their field are amongst
the best available.
