Commercial Litigation Property Lawyers

Proud History, Bold Future, Since 1834

Lisa Rankin

Principal Lawyer

Insurance and personal injury disputes can involve complex facts, competing interests and significant commercial consequences.  I take a thorough, pragmatic approach so clients understand their position and can work towards an effective resolution.

I have extensive experience in insurance, personal injury and general litigation matters.

I act across motor vehicle accident, workers compensation and public liability claims, consumer law matters, property damage claims and insurance policy disputes.  I act predominantly for insurers in personal injury matters while also representing individual plaintiffs, which gives me a balanced perspective on the issues that arise throughout the life of a claim.

I am approachable and solution-focused, with a pragmatic and commercial approach to dispute resolution.  I am thorough in my investigation and management of claims and focus on providing clear, timely advice.

I regularly appear as an advocate in Tasmania’s courts and tribunals and have experience in complex litigation, including Supreme Court trials.

I am a former President of the Tasmanian Branch of the Australian Insurance Law Association.

Outside of work, I enjoy travel, dining and dance, and spending time with my Cavalier King Charles spaniel.
