Brett Sherwin

Brett’s practice focuses on advising domestic insurers and self-insured clients in relation to a range of complex public liability claims.

‘I enjoy working with my clients to develop a range of strategic and novel ways to successfully resolve disputes.’

Brett also has in-house experience, having completed an extended secondment at a large Australian insurer, spending time working in two of the insurer’s teams dealing with:

• a range of public liability claims
• complex general insurance disputes, pertaining to commercial property claims, fraud, home and contents policies, and motor policies

‘I am passionate about insurance law because it encompasses such a broad range of topics and skills. It requires technical skill over complex areas of law, practical skills such as advocacy and negotiation, and, overall, a lateral understanding of client needs.'
