National law firm Meridian Lawyers has moved to bolster its insurance ranks, with the appointment of a new principal, as well as a senior associate, for its Melbourne office.
Drina Govic and Gabrielle Fergus have joined Meridian Lawyers, strengthening the firm’s insurance practice.
Ms Fergus’ experience includes managing domestic and commercial recoveries and liability claims, coverage disputes and fraud/investigations. She joins as a senior associate.
The pair have come across from Ligeti Partners and will be based in the Meridian Melbourne office.
The news follows the firm’s taking of two principals from McCabes earlier in July, its promotion of 12 lawyers to more senior roles in early July, and its raiding of McCabes’ insurance ranks, reported by Lawyers Weekly here, here and here.
Speaking about the arrival of Ms Govic, Meridian managing director Paul Baker (pictured) said that the firm is “so pleased” she is joining.
“She is a high-calibre insurance lawyer with an outstanding track record and loyal client following. There are many synergies with Drina’s practice and Meridian’s existing client base,” he said.
“We share many clients in common, and with Drina’s added expertise and involvement in our insurance practice, we will broaden the scope of our legal service offering.”
