The search is on for standout leaders to feature in this year’s Elite Women list
Australasian Lawyer and NZ Lawyer are proud to open nominations for Elite Women 2026, a special report celebrating the most outstanding female leaders in legal across Australia and New Zealand.
Each year, the report showcases the women who stand out for their ability to combine legal excellence with authenticity, resilience and people-focused leadership. From mentoring future talent to driving change within their organisations and communities, we are looking for leaders who have demonstrated the many ways women continue to shape the future of law.
Nominations can be done through this online form until Friday, 3 July.
Elite Women 2026, proudly supported by Queensland Young Lawyers and Otago Women's Law Society Te Rōpū Wāhine Toko i Te Ture Inc, will be published on the Australasian Lawyer and NZ Lawyer websites in October.
