For a bit of fun, the whole team gets involved in "Fun Fact Friday" where we share facts on a certain topic and the odd joke. Our principal Browns Plains lawyers, and sisters, Alison and Jillian Barrett, are also passionate social justice campaigners. They run an informative Facebook page, Sisters-in-Law, that helps locals in their area find general advice for relevant community issues.
