Andrzej Meysner has been promoted to the position of magistrate of the Magistrates Court of Western Australia.
He will sit as a magistrate in the Family Court of WA, filling the vacancy left by the retirement of one part-time magistrate and the switch to part-time of another.
“I congratulate Andrzej Meysner on his appointment as a magistrate to preside in the Family Court of Western Australia,” said Attorney General, Dr Tony Buti.
“He will be a welcome addition to the judiciary after serving for 17 years as a registrar of the Family Court and in private practice.
“Mr Meysner’s strong background in family law will help the court continue to effectively manage a significant workload.”
Admitted to practice in 2009, Mr Meysner has spent much of his legal career practising in family law. He served as a registrar of the Family Court for the past eight years.
As a solicitor, he also provided legal advice on civil and family law matters, prepared cases and appeals across numerous courts and appeared as an independent children’s lawyer.
He will commence as a new magistrate on Monday.
