DNA

Before being admitted as a solicitor, Heidi trained and worked as a DNA expert at the Forensic and Analytical Science Services (FASS). While at FASS, she worked on hundreds of cases including high profile murder matters.

During this career, Heidi gained intimate knowledge about how the DNA laboratories work, and the limitations on the use of DNA evidence. Heidi has been sought out during her career as a lawyer because of this, and has been a fundamental part of many legal teams in matters that hinged on the presence of DNA evidence.

Heidi has extensive knowledge and experience arguing issues of DNA transfer, Y-Filer profiles, and evidence recovery.

Heidi is the only Criminal Defence Lawyer in NSW to specialise in both of these fields.
