Cody grew up in Tasmania, where he began a combined Law and Commerce degree. While working at a large accounting firm during his studies, he was offered a full-time position but ultimately realised his true passion lay in law—a path many had predicted for him as a child, often joking that his knack for a good argument made him a natural fit.

 

At 20, Cody relocated to the sunny Gold Coast after graduating with a Commerce degree from the University of Tasmania. He went on to complete a Bachelor of Laws at Griffith University in 2008 and commenced his legal career at a family and personal injury firm on the Gold Coast. In 2009, he was admitted to practice in both the Supreme Court of Queensland and the High Court of Australia. During his time at a mid-sized firm, Cody gained extensive experience in family, injury, and criminal law, areas in which he continues to specialise.

 

In 2018, Cody founded Beck Law, which has since grown into a national practice with a team of 11 staff. His work frequently takes him across Australia, from Cairns to Melbourne and Perth. In mid-2021, the firm underwent a rebrand following his purchase of an office space opposite the beach in Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast.

 

Cody thrives in the courtroom and takes pride in advocating passionately for his clients. With appearances in courts nationwide, he has extensive experience in all areas of family law, including binding financial agreements, parenting matters, property settlements, and domestic violence proceedings. His criminal practice spans traffic matters, work licence applications, serious criminal charges, bail applications, and minor offences in the Magistrates, District, and Supreme Courts.
