MEMBERS CORNER
New recruit joins fold at McInnes Wilson OLIVIA Roberts recently joined the fold of the McInnes Wilson Lawyers Construction and Infrastructure team. She took time out from providing clients tailored legal solutions to answer a few questions for Master Builders. How long have you been a construction litigation lawyer? I have been a construction litigation lawyer for more than 12 years. Throughout these years I have gained a vast range of experience, legal and technical knowledge, and commercial understanding that is required to service clients in the construction industry. Have you worked with Master Builders before? I have been involved with Master Builders for many years and have acted for builders from Cairns to Townsville, Rockhampton, Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
What is something you would tell potential clients? I have a genuine interest in helping clients resolve disputes as cost-effectively and efficiently as possible by providing clients with a range of options specific to their situation and desired outcome in mind. I am determined and enthusiastic in my approach and I enjoy helping my clients in establishing best practice when it comes to managing projects and avoiding common pitfalls that result in litigation. I give 100 per cent to my clients, and I will continue to do so while I serve as a member of the legal profession. If you weren’t a lawyer, what would you be doing? Running my own personal training business or working for an organisation like the RSPCA. I am an active community volunteer and advocate, having been involved in community groups and not for profit organisations like the RSPCA for many years. Although I enjoy
what I do for a living, I also enjoy helping the community and standing up for what I believe in. Contact McInnes Wilson on (07) 3231 0600 or email mcw@mcw.com.au.
