Jim Marsden

05 February 2026

Mr GREG WARREN (Campbelltown)—I would like to recognise James Herbet (Jim) Marsden on the occasion of fifty years practicing as a solicitor of the Supreme Court of New South Wales, fifty years of continuous legal practice and his honourable contribution to the broader legal profession in News South Wales. Fewer than 2.5% of lawyers in New South Wales sustain continuous practice for fifty years, and fewer than 0.1% do so while serving as a senior partner which puts Jim in a distinguished and unique group in our state. Jim noted in an interview that his parents always had two basic values: good service and community involvement and he has displayed these values over through his support of Mater Dei College, the Wests Tigers and his pro-bono work where he was acknowledged with the NSW Law Society Presidents Award, along with his appointment as an Honorary Fellow of Western Sydney University, and being awarded the Order of Australia. Jim is a true icon of Campbelltown and the broader Macarthur region that deserves every recognition. I would like to congratulate Jim once again and sincerely thank him for his distinguished and selfless contributions to our community and the legal profession in NSW.
