Approach
I am proactive and approachable. In contested matters I am a tactical litigator with a strong commercial approach. I quickly identify matters which need early resolution and I employ a range of alternative dispute resolution techniques to this end.
Area of Practise
Health, Medical Indemnity and Disciplinary; Professional Indemnity; Public and Product Liability; General Insurance, ISR, Indemnity and Fraud.
Industry Experience
I have practised insurance law and litigation for over 17 years with experience in a broad range of insurance practice areas including injury liability, property and commercial claims, marine insurance and defamation. I have regularly advised insurers, self insurers and government entities on relevant statutory regulation in public sector litigation and liability. My current focus is in professional indemnity, medical negligence and disciplinary proceedings, including matters involving discrimination and defamation.
Professional Memberships
