Elly is an experienced litigator and financial services regulatory lawyer, specialising in regulatory, professional indemnity, and complex dispute matters.

Elly acts for insurers, insureds, and professionals in claims involving regulatory investigations, disciplinary proceedings, and civil liability exposures. Her experience also extends to advising on insurance portfolio transfers under court-approved schemes, including matters requiring management of statutory interpretation and obligations, regulator engagement, and procedural compliance.
