In this episode of Conversations Podcast, Fatih chats with AUSIT National President Angelo Berbotto about the latest news from AUSIT, including Learnbook, the AUSIT National Conference, his travels around Australia to the Law Societies of each state and more.
Guest Bio:
Angelo qualified as a lawyer and as a translator almost at the same time in the early 2000s. Spanish is his A language (English is B). He worked in a government position in Sydney before moving to London to work in commercial litigation, a position he secured thanks to his skills in French, Italian and Spanish. After completing a Master of Children’s Law in Rome, he left the corporate world to focus on child protection. In England, he represented social services in court, in cases to safeguard children from situations where they were at risk of harm. A child protection assignment in the remote island of St Helena changed the direction of his career when he became the principal lawyer for that British Overseas Territory. In 2020, Angelo returned to Australia to work as an Assistant Parliamentary Counsel, drafting legislation. Since winter 2022 he has been a full-time translator and a part-time lawyer (Family and Immigration Law in Sydney). Angelo re-joined AUSIT on his return to Australia and has been a member of AUSIT’s Ethics and Professional Practice Committee since 2021.
