Slater and Gordon is looking to capitalise on the superannuation sector by recruiting a specialist to head up its Queensland practice.
James Hunter has been selected to lead the firm’s Queensland-based consumer rights and compensation practice, bringing with him vast expertise in disability and superannuation insurance claims and a focus on consumer rights and personal insurance.
“Recruiting a practice leader such as James helps us execute our growth mission in Queensland,” the firm’s Queensland general manager Karen Murphy said.
“Unlocking access to justice for our clients who are not aware of their insurance policy entitlements is a simple but effective way of enhancing the real value we provide for our clients.”
Commenting on his new role, Mr Hunter said: “I am excited to be joining Australia’s leading consumer rights and compensation practice”.
“I have always admired Slater and Gordon’s client focus and the patronage they have received from all Australians needing advice, particularly Queenslanders. Many personal injury firms in Queensland transact traditional personal injury claims yet many clients have further entitlement under their compulsory superannuation insurance. This is often overlooked.
“Slaters has a great depth from its national footprint and a long history of acting for clients in the disability and superannuation insurance space. I look forward to complimenting that knowledge base and acting for our deserving clients.”
