What is an accredited specialist?

March 22, 2018 By Morgan Couzens Legal

Accreditaion Myrtleford Solicitors Morgan Couzens Legal

Charles Morgan, principal of Morgan Couzens Legal, is an accredited specialist in workplace relations with the Law Institute of Victoria. He has been an accredited specialist in workplace relations since 2004.

Many of our clients ask: ‘What is an accredited specialist?’, and ‘What does that mean?’.

An accredited specialist is a lawyer who is a leader in their field and has been accredited by the Law Institute of Victoria.

Accredited specialists must have a minimum of five years’ full-time practising experience and a minimum of three years of experience in their area of specialisation at the time they apply to participate in the scheme. The applicant for such accreditation must also pass a comprehensive examination process that is developed by legal professional experts.

After receiving the accreditation, an accredited specialist must maintain a high level of professional development with 12 continuing professional development hours required each year, and 8 of those hours specific to the specialisation. Accredited specialists must apply for re-accreditation every three years.

If you have a workplace problem which you believe requires a higher-level skillset, we suggest that you call us on (03) 5752 1280 and make an appointment to see Charles.

Charles has appointments available in our Myrtleford, Wangaratta and Wodonga offices.
