Saines Lucas Solicitors is a long-established law firm.
Operating since 1939 in Ballarat and Western Victoria the firm specialises in all personal injury claims, in particular, WorkCover, TAC, asbestos, sexual assault and abuse claims and slipping and tripping claims.
For the past three years, Saines Lucas has shared Melton offices with local firm, WPC Lawyers who provide expert services in wills, probate and conveyancing. The two firms have developed a strong relationship.
Nick Lyons, a principal of Saines Lucas, has practised extensively in all types of personal injury claims and litigation for the past 29 years. He is a Law Institute of Victoria accredited specialist in personal injury law.
In 2018 and 2019 Nick and Saines Lucas were voted as one of the leading workers compensation and transport accident lawyers and law firms in Victoria by Doyles Guide for Lawyers. Nick visits the Melton office on a weekly basis.
Practice manager Peter McGrath says the team is pleased to now provide family law services at the Melton office with the addition of senior family lawyer Natasha Papaelia, who has practised extensively in the area for 15 years.
“Natasha works exclusively out of our Melton office and can see clients in Melton or by phone or video conference if required. We are happy to help clients located anywhere,” Mr McGrath says.
