Megan Stanley
Principal Solicitor
My clients are deserving and honest. They come to me to help prove wrongdoing.
Megan Stanley brings extensive experience in personal compensation law to Hall Payne’s Brisbane office. She initially worked in regional Queensland before obtaining a position in a large UK legal practice.
In the UK she gained exposure to a range of legal matters, including personal compensation litigation.
Since returning home, Megan has continued to practice solely in personal compensation law; an area of litigation about which she remains passionate.
“My clients are deserving and honest,” she says.
“They come to me to help prove wrongdoing.”
Megan is committed to achieving the best outcome for her clients. In many cases, this requires strong negotiation to settle a matter out of court.
“My goal is to obtain an appropriate settlement so my clients can take control of their lives, and make the choices that are right for them.”
Megan is admitted as a solicitor of the Supreme Court of Queensland, the Supreme Court of England and Wales, and the High Court of Australia. She is a member of the Queensland Law Society and Australian Lawyers Alliance.
In Megan’s free time, the outdoors beckons. She loves motorcycle riding, climbing, hiking and camping and also enjoys socialising with friends over great food and wine.

Justine was very knowledgeable and was very helpful in my matter. Would recommend other people to her.
Words cannot explain how impressed I am with Cale from Hall Payne Lawyers. He has been so professional in every way, and also been able to simplify so I could understand the more technical things.
He has guided me through the whole process, and at the end has delivered far beyond my expectations.
I recommend Cale unconditionly and without hesitation.
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional service provided by Hall Payne Lawyers. They helped me navigate through a difficult situation where I was falsely accused at my workplace in aged care.

Thank you, Hall Payne Lawyers, for your unwavering support and professionalism.
Leanne Taylor has consistently delivered excellent results. Thank you, Leanne!
Mark Diamond proved, despite difficult circumstances, that he is a top notch employment lawyer and a fine negotiator. Mark's union experience is a great bonus and it really shows in how he provided me with practical, sensible and targeted advice.
I would recommend Mark to you particularly if you work in transport: he is uniquely placed to help you get the best outcome.
We have had the pleasure of dealing with Leanne Taylor regarding a claim and I can not speak high enough about the dealings and outcome.
Using a highly qualified lawyer like Leanne and the Team at Hall Payne is the only way to go when dealing with large companies to achieve the correct outcome in a timely manner, hassle free.
Thank you Leanne and all the Hall Payne Team, I could not recommend you highly enough.
I recently worked with Justine Matthews, from Hall Payne Lawyers, to defend against a serious accusation, and I couldn’t be more impressed.
Justine was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated throughout the entire process. She compiled a strong defense strategy, kept me informed every step of the way, and provided much-needed reassurance. Thanks to her hard work, the matter was resolved positively and within a very tight timeframe.
I highly recommend Justine for anyone in need of expert health law legal help and can not thank her enough.
Recently I had the pleasure of working with Alexandra Jarret at Hall Payne Lawyers. Alexandra is not only very professional but exceptionally intelligent. Alexandra is definitely a leader in her field who is capable and competent to handle tricky cases.
I am so glad I have Alexandra on my team as a reliable and highly skilled professional. Highly recommend.
