Sarah Thornton – Senior Lawyer


Sarah joined Jacqui Ion Lawyers in February 2024 with 10 years’ family law experience.

She specialises in parenting arrangements, property settlements and divorce applications.

Sarah spent two years as the Legal Associate to the Adelaide registry of the Family Court after graduating from Adelaide University in 1996 with a Bachelor of Laws (Hons) and a degree in Psychology.

After an overseas working holiday where Sarah undertook paralegal work on large-scale litigation, she returned to Adelaide and was employed in the family law sections of Thomson Playford Lawyers and then Norman Waterhouse Lawyers.

Sarah then pursued her other passion for wellness by successfully running her own small business in the allied health industry in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide.

We couldn’t be more thrilled that Sarah has returned to her first love by joining Jacqui Ion Lawyers. She blends attention to detail with a calm and caring approach to achieve excellent results for her clients.
