About Courtney

Courtney is a solicitor who has worked exclusively in personal injury compensation law for nearly 20 years, both before and after being admitted as a solicitor. She has experience across a wide range of claims, including workers’ compensation claims and motor vehicle accident claims (including motorcycle and other road accident injuries). This has involved acting for injured claimants in most areas of personal injury law including serious and catastrophic injury claims (with injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, acquired brain injuries and other head injuries, amputations, severe burns and spinal cord injuries), construction accident claims, mining accident claims, workers’ compensation injury claims, work injury claims, workplace injury claims, motor vehicle accident injury claims, motorcycle accident injury claims, other road accident injury claims, public liability injury claims, death and fatality claims, bullying and harassment claims and psychiatric injury claims. Courtney enjoys handling complex claims, such as traumatic brain injury, fatal injury and nervous shock claims, as well as claims involving complex legal principles. She is particularly passionate about helping individuals who have experienced trauma to navigate the legal system and access the compensation and entitlements they deserve. Known for her compassionate and client-focused approach, Courtney takes the time to truly understand her clients’ stories and the challenges they face. She is a pragmatic and skilled negotiator and she works hard to explain complex legal principles in a straightforward, accessible way. She is committed to minimising retraumatisation and ensuring her clients feel supported and empowered throughout their legal journey. Courtney is motivated by a deep commitment to fairness and justice and she strives to achieve outcomes that help her clients regain control of their lives. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her children and extended family. She also loves cooking, sewing and gardening.
