Biography

Rita, a Partner at GMP Law, draws on her vast experience in personal injury law to lead the firm’s motor vehicle accident department. She is a skilled litigator and NSW Accredited Specialist in Personal Injury Law, and also holds a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Arts.

Rita specialises in motor vehicle accident claims and public liability cases, with experience in professional negligence, work injury damages, and product liability. Known for her strong organisational skills and unwavering drive, she is committed to advocating for injured clients and securing the fair compensation they deserve.

Rita takes a compassionate, tailored approach to each case, ensuring that every client receives the best possible outcome. Since becoming head of the motor vehicle injury department in 2021 and a partner in 2024, Rita has continued to demonstrate her exceptional advocacy skills. A notable example of her expertise is a case where she secured a compensation to relatives claim as well as through a nervous shock claim for a client following the tragic death of her husband in a fatal car accident on a flooded causeway where he was a passenger. Through skilled negotiation and advocacy, Rita successfully secured a settlement totalling $1,415,000, providing her client with crucial financial support during an incredibly difficult period.

Rita was drawn to specialise in personal injury law because it allows her to advocate for those who have suffered harm and help them secure compensation for the wrongdoings of others. With deep empathy for the daily challenges faced by injured individuals, she finds fulfilment in offering support and, as she puts it, “shining a light or rainbow on their day” whenever she can.

What sets GMP Law apart for Rita is the firm’s genuine empathy and unwavering commitment to maximising compensation for clients affected by negligence. She values how the firm takes a sincere interest in every case, ensuring that each client’s needs are prioritised. Rita also appreciates the firm’s flexible cost policies, which offer support to clients who may feel dissatisfied with the services, aligning perfectly with her own commitment to fairness and client satisfaction.

Outside the office, Rita enjoys spending time with friends and family, reading, shopping, and exploring new destinations through travel.
