Laura Silburn

Laura specialises in professional indemnity and health matters with a particular focus in defending professional negligence claims, insurance litigation, and commercial disputes.

Laura has experience in defending complex, high-value professional indemnity and financial lines claims, having acted for insurers, major contractors, and a broad range of professionals including architects, engineers, project managers, surveyors, accountants, brokers, and medical and health practitioners. Her experience encompasses both defence and coverage work across both Australia and the United Kingdom.

'I enjoy professional indemnity work because every matter presents a different combination of legal, technical, and commercial issues. I find it rewarding to work closely with insurers and insured professionals to understand those issues and develop practical strategies for resolving each claim.'

Laura adopts a commercial and pragmatic approach to claims, bringing a well-rounded perspective gained from working as an insurance disputes lawyer and during a year-long role as a Senior Claims Officer at one of Australia’s largest insurers. She builds strong, long-term relationships with clients, providing the reliable support needed to work through complex matters.
