Elyse Bonnici
General Counsel & State Manager (Tasmania), Sydney
With extensive experience in personal injury litigation, I have dedicated my career to representing clients across a broad spectrum of cases, including Workers Compensation, Work Injury Damages, Motor Vehicle Accidents, Public Liability, Medical Negligence, Superannuation Claims, and Dust Diseases.
I have had the privilege of acting for individuals from diverse backgrounds and age groups, including children, dealing with a wide range of injuries—from brain and spinal injuries to orthopaedic and psychological conditions. My approach is rooted in empathy and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by those who have endured significant injury and loss.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Laws and am admitted as a solicitor to the Supreme Court of NSW and the High Court of Australia. I am an Accredited Specialist in Personal Injury Law and was recognised in the Doyles Guide as a Recommended Public Liability Lawyer in 2022.
I am passionate about using my expertise to help injured Australians navigate complex legal issues and achieve outstanding results. I take pride in offering a jargon-free, personalised service where my clients feel informed, respected, and supported in a flexible and compassionate environment.
I thrive on tackling intricate legal challenges with practical and cost-effective solutions. I understand the profound impact of life changing injuries and am dedicated to providing unwavering support to my clients throughout their legal journey, ensuring they receive the advocacy they deserve.
In my role as State Manager of Tasmania and General Counsel at LHD Lawyers, I oversee legal matters to ensure we deliver the highest standard of service to our clients, while managing legal risks and providing strategic guidance to ensure regulatory compliance.
