“Cairns is in need of a wider pool of lawyers, especially when it comes to personal injury claims,” she said.
“I have committed to living and working here in the region, but feel there is a lack of choice for injured (through no fault of their own) people who deserve fair fees, expert advice, exceptional service and excellent representation.”
After working with larger corporates, Ms Rolton started to look into smaller firms, in other areas of Queensland, with a different set of values and more aligned to her own, in a bid to find a one that would align with the needs of the Cairns community and be willing to expand.
“Travis Schultz & Partners (TSP) stood out from the rest. They’re compassionate, they value highly experienced and skilled lawyers, they have a positive work culture and a fair fee structure for clients,” Ms Rolton said.
“I knew TSP already had offices in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, so I reached out to the team in the hope they would see our community also needed an alternative to the big firms and they were more than willing to come onboard.”
Managing principal of the firm Travis Schultz said the firm was “extremely excited” for this next chapter.
“Ms Rolton has a wealth of experience being a personal injury accredited specialist and she brings our total of TSP accredited specialists to six … that is a huge amount of expertise within the team for our clients to tap into.
“Up until now, we have serviced clients in the region via a visiting serviced office arrangement, so to have a permanent presence in the region will be a game-changer,” he said.
“The expansion in Cairns is an exciting step forward as we continue to grow our client base. It’s our promise to bring a lower fee guarantee, industry-leading expertise and personalised service delivered with compassion and a community conscience, to the region.”
