Central Coast law firm, Seton Family Lawyers, has been recognised at the prestigious Australian Law Awards, taking home two major accolades, Regional/Suburban Law Firm of the Year and Wellness Initiative of the Year.
The awards highlight the firm’s exceptional contributions to both the legal industry and the wellbeing of its professionals, and bring attention to the strength and excellence of the region’s legal community.
In their 24th year, The Australian Law Awards were celebrated at a black-tie gala ceremony on August 30 at The Star, Sydney.
The awards celebrate the achievements of legal professionals across the country.
The Regional/Suburban Law Firm of the Year award acknowledges Seton Family Lawyers for exceptional client service, legal expertise and community involvement.
The Wellness Initiative of the Year award honours the firm’s innovative Ironbark Initiative, which supports the mental health and overall wellbeing of its team and the broader community.
Solicitor Director Michael Seton highlighted the importance of prioritising mental health and wellbeing.
“In 2016, I was on the verge of burnout, but with the support of those closest to me, I made crucial changes to prioritise mental health,” he said.
“By 2021 I realised I was overworked and losing my passion for law.
“With the help of my support network, I realigned my work with my values, leading to the creation of Seton Family Lawyers.”
Seton developed the Ironbark Initiative in 2023.
It empowers team members to prioritise their health and wellbeing by subsidising self-care and providing paid hours of leave to contribute to family harmony and support local charities and community organisations.
“In 2024, it’s an honour to have the wellness initiatives we’re implementing as a firm recognised at a national level,” Seton said.
“I’m grateful to our incredible team for making this a reality.”
