We would love to invite you to an event celebrating Jess’ life and her incredible achievements. Jess made such a significant contribution to her clients and our community during her legal career.
She touched the lives of all she met.
We have arranged an event to bring together her legal family, her family and friends and those who will be inspired by her legacy. At the event, the Jessica Aviss memorial award will be awarded to a current law student who is best able to identify and explore barriers to access to justice, which was an issue Jessica was passionate about during her time as a lawyer.
