Slater and Gordon Lawyers went above and beyond to help our family through an extremely difficult time. Our family had a lot to deal with in a short period of time and Raelene Lingam and her team were kind, caring and patient as they guided us through the legal process. Raelene went to a great deal of trouble to ensure we understood every step, were put at ease and did not need to worry about the claim. Raelene and her team including Ashley Watson were professional, efficient, caring and respectful throughout our dealings with them especially in my fathers last days. Raelene would call often to keep us up to date or to find out how my mother and the family were coping. I would highly recommend Raelene Lingam and her team at Slater Gordon. Thank you so much Raelene for being so kind and for everything you did for our family.
I’m Legal Counsel practising solely in Slater and Gordon’s New South Wales Asbestos & Dust Diseases team with over 15 years cross jurisdictional legal experience in Australia and the UK. I also have a background working in healthcare as a senior intensive care nurse, which has given me a unique understanding of health services and many transferable skills which I have found to be invaluable when dealing with terminally ill clients and their families.
I work closely with my clients and their families to help them navigate the complexities of the legal & statutory systems to ensure they and their loved ones receive a just and fair outcome. I feel I have done my job well when I can minimise my clients’ stress and guide and support them through the process of obtaining compensation, allowing them time to focus on more important aspects of their life as they face the difficulties of living with an incurable illness.
I look forward to helping and supporting people suffering with an asbestos and/or silica dust related disease, with their journey.
