Cameron Solley (pictured) has joined Meridian Lawyers, bringing with him more than 20 years of experience in professional risk, public and products liability and personal injury across domestic and international markets.
He has, Meridian said in a statement, “considerable experience” responding to professional indemnity and personal injury claims against companies, associations, individuals and government agencies where the allegations may be of breach of professional duties of care and breaches of occupiers’ liability.
Speaking about the firm’s newest principal, Meridian managing director Paul Baker said: “Cameron’s deep experience and skills in professional indemnity insurance expand on the current capabilities in our Brisbane team.
“With his background in brokers’ negligence and other professional indemnity claims, in addition to his health-related experience in the disciplinary area, Cameron’s skills complement those of the team in Brisbane and bolster the service offering to our clients on a national basis.”
Meridian Brisbane managing partner Dennis Cronin added: “I am delighted to welcome Cameron to the Brisbane team and our insurance practice.
“Cameron is an astute and technically proficient lawyer who is a great fit for our business. Cameron’s experience and his insights will be of great value to our team, our client base and the business more broadly.”
And Mr Solley noted that it is an exciting time for him to be joining Meridian.
“I have long admired the high regard in which Meridian is held for its excellence in client service,” he said.
“I am looking forward to being a part of a national insurance team, working alongside the team in Brisbane, and having the opportunity to enhance the service offering to my clients.”
