Abuse law

I treat every client as an individual and approach every interaction with compassion, care and understanding.

Myfanwy is a Senior Associate with Shine Lawyers’ Abuse Law team. Based in Shine’s Wollongong branch, she represents clients with compensation claims involving:

“Abuse law requires empathy, patience and a trauma-informed approach. My priority is ensuring clients feel respected, supported and understood at every stage of the process.”

Before focusing exclusively on abuse law, Myfanwy practised extensively across both plaintiff and defendant personal injury and abuse law matters. She has worked at leading firms including Curwoods Lawyers, Clyde & Co (London), Sparke Helmore Lawyers, McCabes and Wotton + Kearney. Her experience acting for defendants in abuse claims provides her with valuable insight into how matters are assessed, defended and resolved.

Myfanwy studied law alongside a Bachelor of Arts and later completed postgraduate qualifications in human rights and legal practice. She was admitted to practice in New South Wales in 2017.

“My work as a lawyer allows me to advocate for people who have experienced serious trauma and to help them navigate the legal system with dignity and care.”
