Since 2012, she has led the Victorian Workers Compensation practice, becoming general manager for the practice in 2018, the firm noted.
Further, in 2016, Ms Hoare was elected the first female chair of the Law Institute of Victoria’s Workers Compensation Committee, was appointed to the Victorian government’s WorkCover Advisory Committee in 2017, and this year was appointed a Law Institute trustee of Law Aid.
“She is highly respected within the legal industry, by her colleagues and by her clients,” Slater and Gordon CEO John Somerville said.
“Meghan will serve the judiciary and the people of Victoria with the same dedication, drive, passion and commitment to justice with which she has always served her clients.
“On behalf of everyone at Slater and Gordon I want to congratulate Meghan on this deserving appointment and thank her for the passion and dedication she has shown to her clients over her career with the firm,” he said.
