Gabriella Pomare is a family lawyer, award-winning author, and co-parenting advocate who has dedicated her career to guiding families through separation with dignity and clarity. She studied law and journalism at UNSW Sydney and completed part of her legal studies at Columbia Law School in New York before being admitted as a lawyer in Australia.
With over a decade of experience focusing exclusively on family law, Gabriella is a Partner at The Norton Law Group Family Lawyers in Sydney. She has handled complex parenting and property disputes, including international relocation cases, high-net-worth matters, and issues involving family violence. Her leadership and impact in the profession have been recognized through nominations and awards, including the Lawyers Weekly Australian Law Awards and Women in Law Awards.
Her debut book, The Collaborative Co-Parent (Morgan James, 2025), has already gained international acclaim, being named a Distinguished Favorite in the Parenting category of the 2025 NYC Big Book Awards and a finalist in the 2025 ABLE Book Awards. Blending her professional expertise with her personal journey as a separated parent, Gabriella’s book serves as a practical guide on how to co-parent effectively. It offers a roadmap for parents seeking to put their children at the centre, not in the middle, of family restructuring. With tools, strategies, and lived experience woven throughout, the book empowers parents to reduce conflict, communicate more effectively, and embrace resilience in the face of change.
Gabriella is also a sought-after media commentator, with appearances on TODAY, FOX, Good Day Atlanta, CT Buzz, ABC10’s Your California Life, and more. Through her legal practice, public speaking, and her platform The Collaborative Co-Parent, she is leading a global movement to reframe separation—not as the breakdown of a family, but as the creation of a new one with new rules. Her mission is to ensure that every child of separated parents grows up knowing they were always put first.
