Chay Carr

I love helping people understand their legal rights and making the complex, simple.

I work as a Senior Managing Law Clerk in the Slater and Gordon Brisbane City office. I started my law career in 1999, initially working as a Paralegal in Property, Banking and Finance Law. Since 2013 I have worked exclusively in Superannuation Law and TPD Claims.

I am a Justice of the Peace (Qualified) and currently studying a Diploma of Financial Planning.

I am driven by my desire to help people in difficult situations who can’t typically afford informed legal advice. My goal is to process my clients claims in a timely manner and keep them updated on progress. I particularly enjoy those days when a claim reaches completion and I know my client has achieved the outcome they were seeking.

I get personal satisfaction knowing my clients can get their lives back on track, accessing the medical care and support they need.

I am particularly happy with the outcome of a recent claim. My client’s superannuation fund had merged with another, and this was affecting her ability to make a claim. I was able to over-turn the insurers decision in this circumstance, as the merger should not have affected my client’s benefit. As a consequence, the insurer reversed their decision and approved my clients claim. My client received 100% of her insurance benefit. Truly a great outcome.
