25.01.2022 HELLO Having noticed a few new followers tagging along, we thought it was time to re-introduce ourselves and what we do. Shaw & Bunner Legal launched in the Hunter Valley NSW in early 2018.... We (Gemma Bunner + Kerri Shaw) had worked together for over a decade in a large national law firm, specialising in personal injury law. Balancing work and young kids, we took the plunge to open our own practice with a mission to offer clients the expertise of a large firm with the benefits of personalised service you would expect from a smaller practice. We started with zero files. No clients. Zilch. In just under three years we have built a practice that we are immensely proud of and a team that we adore. We offer Conveyancing services with Erin Martin at the helm bringing 20+ years experience to the table and a Wills & Estate practice offering peace of mind and convenience to the local community. Moreover, our passion is to deliver specialised personal injury services across NSW in all areas of compensation claims. So welcome. We are here to help. #reintroduction #hellothere #whoarewe #whatdowedo #ourstory #startuplawfirm #heretohelp #bigfirmskillssmallfirmapproach
