Dea Pllana

Lawyer

Hi, I’m Dea. I am originally from Adelaide and joined Emera Family Law in 2025.

Prior to joining Emera Family Law, I spent a couple of years working at a boutique law firm where I gained experience across various areas of law, including family law. It was during this time that I discovered my passion for supporting clients and helping them navigate the complexities of family law matters.

I have assisted with a wide range of cases, including parenting disputes, matrimonial and de facto property settlements, and divorce proceedings.

I understand the emotional challenges that often accompany these matters and am committed to helping clients reach positive, out-of-court resolutions wherever possible. My goal is to ensure that our clients feel supported, informed, and empowered throughout the entire process.

Joining Emera Family Law has given me the invaluable opportunity to work alongside a team of strong, inspiring and experienced women, from whom I continue to learn every day.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends, hosting board game nights, reading and going on weekend getaways.
