About Tegan

Tegan is the Director and Principal Lawyer of Martens Legal.

After nearly a decade in traditional law firms, Tegan opened Martens Legal in 2017 to align her work with her values. Her core purpose for starting Martens Legal was to be the best mum, lawyer, and business owner she could be. Over the past 7 years, she has built a successful firm and surrounded herself with an amazing team of people who are dedicated to helping clients navigate family law matters with compassion and expertise. Recently, Tegan returned from maternity leave, refreshed and ready to continue her mission. She is excited to navigate this next chapter and live her purpose.

Tegan’s passion for family law stems from her desire to support people through some of the most challenging times in their lives. She prides herself on providing sincere and caring guidance, ensuring her clients feel supported every step of the way. Her primary focus is on property settlement negotiations, where she has extensive experience handling everything from common asset divisions involving the family home and superannuation to complex cases involving businesses and corporate structures like trusts. Tegan strives to simplify even the most complicated matters, making the process as straightforward as possible for her clients.

Tegan’s commitment to a people-focused approach is a core ethos at Martens Legal, one she instills in her entire team. This dedication to client care and service excellence has been a cornerstone of the firm’s success.

Outside of her legal practice, you will currently find Tegan in her new mum era lapping up precious moments with her little one, Lucas while also navigating the challenges and learnings that come with forever changing babies, including wake windows, sleep cycles and more!  Tegan also has a keen interest in property renovation and design, often browsing realestate.com.au and Instagram reno pages for inspiration in her (currently limited) down time.  Her ability to balance a demanding career with her personal interests and family life is a testament to her dedication and passion in all areas of her life.
