Marija Wood

Marija was born and raised in Serbia and travelled regularly to Australia since 2014.  Marija relocated to Perth in 2015 and in 2017 she joined the team at Perth Family Lawyers.

Marija graduated university with a Law degree in Serbia in 2015 however as Marija’s tertiary qualifications did not transfer to Australia, Marija completed a further Law degree in Australia.

During her degree in Australia Marija received three separate academic awards for her outstanding success in securing the highest mark in her subjects.

Marija continued to work throughout her degree as a paralegal, supporting the senior solicitors in the firm with their busy family law practices and gained significant exposure to complex property and parenting matters.

In 2022 Marija graduated with her Bachelor of Laws degree from Curtin University and subsequently obtained her Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice from the College of Law that same year.

Marija was admitted to the Supreme Court of Western Australia in October 2022.

With a combination of Marija’s knowledge acquired while studying in Serbia and Australia and experience gained while working with Perth Family Lawyers, Marija can provide exceptional, personalised legal advice across the range of family law issues.  Marija is empathetic, and dedicated to assisting her clients to achieve successful outcomes in their family law matters.

Fun fact – Marija is a Serbian name and the letter J is silent, therefore it is pronounced Maria.
