What I do

As a highly experienced litigator on both sides of the litigation fence I know just how valuable certainty of outcome for parties in dispute is; a negotiated resolution of conflict in a secure confidential environment avoids the high cost in real dollars, time and angst that is all too often the unsatisfactory, uncertain and costly litigation process.

 

My areas of interest

Mediation

  • Disputes arising out of professional negligence;

  • Public and products liability claims;

  • Personal injury claims including motor vehicle accidents and workplace injury (workers’ compensation);

  • Insurance contracts disputes;

  • Commercial disputes;

  • Legal costs disputes;

  • Wills and succession disputes;

  • Neighbourhood and community organisation disputes including sport clubs.

 
 

Litigation Support

  • Claims file review to identify gaps in evidence and deficiencies in strategic planning which impede resolution.

  • Your eyes and ears to convey instructions to lawyers at dispute resolution processes - cost and geography can pose practical challenges to having your voice heard in court-ordered settlement conferences or mediations and other dispute resolution processes.

  • Work surges and short term overload; being part of your team when there are not enough hands on deck.

Insurance Advisory

  • Insurance policy and regulatory compliance.

  • Claims portfolio audits.

  • Ensuring adequacy of long-tail claims strategies and reserves.

  • Insurance product development and policy drafting.

  • Training.
