If Michael Stork had a spare 10 minutes

April 17, 2026

Tiffany Cosby interviews Michael Stork, 2026 Law Society Council member, to find out how he likes to spend his time.

What would an ideal weekend for you look like?

I really like country driving and adventures with the family. There is a bakery in York that does the best bee stings.

What’s a skill you’d love to learn?

I would love to be able to swim fast(er) and graduate out of the “slow lane” at the lap pool.

Which do you prefer, an infinity pool or a sandy beach? Why?

Definitely an infinity pool, somewhere sunny with a fruity cocktail. I spend enough time at the beach already.

Finish this sentence: Sometimes I’m quite …

Difficult. Sorry.

Name one thing on your bucket list

Once my teenage boys fly the nest I would like to live in an apartment with amazing views, and will do my best not to hassle the strata council too much.

What is your daily non-negotiable?

I need to buy my lunch each day. I like the flexibility. I can’t face knowing what I am eating for lunch when I leave home.

Where is a place you’ve always wanted to travel to?

I would like to drive from Perth to Cairns on “The Outback Way”. One day!

Describe your personal ‘brand’ in four words

A work in progress.

What food will always remind you of your childhood and why?

Schnitzels. A German grandmother explains that.

If you had a spare 10 minutes right now, how would you use it? 

I would probably end up posting something on LinkedIn.
