Griffith Law School

As part of the Creative Arts Open Day on Sunday 17 May, Griffith Law School participated in a Treasury “pop-up” event, engaging with students interested in studying Law at our new CBD campus next year.

Kirsty Paynter and Sarah Joseph staffed the booth, speaking with many enthusiastic prospective students, while Dean Therese Wilson and GLS student Nalani Farrell delivered an information session to an audience of around 50 prospective students and their parents.

There was much excitement amongst those attending about studying Law in the CBD from next year!

Very pleased to support RAILS - Refugee and Immigration Legal Service!

A huge thank you to Griffith Law School for coming on board as a Bronze Sponsor for our Flavour of Hope event!

Griffith has long been a friend to RAILS, their students volunteer with us, working on real cases and seeing firsthand the difference that access to legal help makes for refugees and people seeking asylum. We love having them in our corner.

Founded on a deep commitment to social justice, they are exactly the kind of partner we are proud to stand alongside.

Thank you, Griffith and we look forward to seeing you at Flavour of Hope!

We are very proud of our Vis moot team—Grace Farmer, Tiffany Humble, Ken Stringer and Mahesh Rajamohan. Despite one team member being unable to attend in Vienna for personal reasons, the team showed remarkable resilience and generosity: one member carried an increased load in both the Budapest pre‑moot and Vienna rounds, while the absent member remained closely involved, offering enthusiastic support from afar. Following four outstanding general round moots demonstrating exceptional legal knowledge and advocacy, the team unfortunately missed out on being among the top 64 ( out of 384) finalists. They met this with grace and positivity, warmly supporting fellow Australian teams from Bond, UQ and UNSW and continuing to learn by attending final round moots. Each has described the experience as wonderful and life‑changing.

We had a wonderful Orientation week at Griffith Law School! We saw great participation at both our Gold Coast and Nathan campus events, and at Nathan, students had the honor of hearing a welcome address from The Hon Michael Kirby AC CMG, who also took part in a well-attended panel discussion on the current state of human rights globally.

The week culminated in an inspiring day at the Banco Court, where students were welcomed by the Chief Justice, the Bar Association, and the Queensland Law Society. They then heard from Griffith Law School alumni, gaining insights into their career journeys since graduating from law school.

Yesterday our Dean took our Visiting Committee on a tour of what will be our new CBD digs from 2027! It was wonderful to be in the space and to start to envision this exciting new environment for our students and staff and the opportunities to engage more actively with the legal profession.
