    Kiera is one of Australia’s most experienced electoral, political and campaign lawyers.

    Representing NGOs, political parties, candidates, and advocacy organisations, Kiera has built a reputation for handling high-profile, impactful cases. She played a pivotal role in the 2019 and 2022 federal elections, as well as in 2022, 2023, and 2024 state campaigns and the 2023 referendum.

    Key cases include:

    • the landmark Court of Disputed Returns case of Garbett v Liu, which clarified the law on misleading advertising in elections;

    • judicial review of a decision by the Attorney-General not to grant a pardon in AG (Cth) v Ogawa;

    • High Court and Court of Appeal wins relating to misleading and deceptive conduct in Wormald v Maradaca and Berry v CCL Secure;

    • legal challenges to COVID voting restrictions during the 2022 federal election.

    Kiera's career in constitutional and public law, along with over a decade in commercial litigation, equips her to provide practical expert advice to those engaging at the forefront of the political process.

    In 2024, Kiera founded Ripple, a boutique firm dedicated to supporting a strong democracy.
