Biography

Haydn obtained his Bachelor of Laws from the University of Western Australia in 1988 and was admitted to practice later that year after completing articles at Kott Gunning. From 1990, Haydn worked at the Australian Government Solicitor’s office as a legal officer conducting major asset transfers, customs prosecutions, tax recovery, corporate receiverships and bankruptcy before returning to private practice and setting up his own legal practice in 1996 which he balanced with part time university teaching and working as a senior case officer at the Child Support Agency.

Haydn joined full time academia in 2007 at Notre Dame University Australia and held various positions as senior lecturer/associate dean before joining Murdoch University in 2011 working as senior lecturer/academic chair before returning to private practice in 2014 to establish his own firm, practising in family law and commercial matters. Haydn returned to full time academia in 2019 as lecturer under a fixed term contract with Curtin University and joined ECU in 2021 in a full time permanent position as lecturer.
