Bio
Eugenia Matthews
I am a colleague of Ms. Goode. She has been the Prosecutor on matters, where I have been the Solicitor for the Defendant. I have always found Ms. Goode to be professional in her dealings with me. We have been able to work collaboratively to resolve matters. All interactions with her have been respectful. Whilst we have disagreed many times, none of our interactions have been problematic. She has a calm demeanour and a brilliant legal mind, able to understand concepts and implement them to suit the situation, currently at hand. Ms. Goode is a skilled Practitioner. Her knowledge of the law, is in my opinion, excellent. She treats all respectfully and with impartiality. What impresses me most about Ms. Goode is her integrity. I cannot fault her at all. South Australia will lose an excellent legal mind. It has been a pleasure to have worked with her.

Natasha is a conscientious, ethical and congenial Police Prosecutor. While we have always been on opposite sides of the bar table, she deals with solicitors with courtesy and professionalism. Natasha has a particularly strong interest in Aboriginal welfare and social justice. Having worked in traditional communities, she is familiar with the cultural and social needs of First Peoples. Natasha has a high degree of empathy and constantly self-educates about the needs of community members. She would be an asset to any organisation. It has been a pleasure working with Natasha and I wish her all the best in the NT!
