An afternoon with Erin Brockovich

Erin Brockovich took to the Australian stage in August as part of her role as a consultant and the new official spokesperson of
Shine Lawyers.


Law firms across Queensland and Victoria were invited to hear Erin speak about ‘that famous case’, and all the ups and downs that followed the release of the academy award winning movie that carries her name.

The response for both events was fantastic, with the Sebel Citigate Hotel in Brisbane and the Park Hyatt in Melbourne both at maximum capacity to hear the personal story of the world’s most famous paralegal.

Shine was overwhelmed by the positive feedback received from lawyers and law staff alike who attended the events. It reinforced the importance and influence of the work that Erin does today.

Mary McIver from Mary McIver & Associates had the opportunity to meet Erin after her speech and said “I will always remember and I take away with me the lesson that anything is possible with a lot of perseverance and tenacity.”

inspirational and a wonderful
speaker … I walked away
feeling better about myself
and the world.”

inspiration and motivator
to champion the little guy.”
