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.
Reviews for Hall Payne Brisbane
I can't recommend Jessie more highly, she was compassionate and very effective in achieving a great out come for me in what was a very horrible situation.
I know I could not have got this result on my own and am forever thankful.
Jessie Browne and the team at Hall Payne Lawyers are the best. My case was handled extremely professionally, everything was communicated clearly and the outcome exceeded my expectations.
10 out of 10
I engaged the services of Hall Payne to help me during a challenging time at work and whilst pregnant. I was linked in with Ignat Kozlov and his team.
Ignat was absolutely fantastic to work with. Not only is he extremely thorough & responsive, but also very empathetic. He listened carefully to my concerns & took them seriously, was reassuring & applied so much industry knowledge. If you have a concern related to the health care industry as a health care professional, you can't go wrong with Ignat.
Thank you so much for your support, legal guidance and effort you put into my case. I would highly recommend Hall Payne Lawyers & Ignat.
Kept things simple.
Alex was amazing to work with - professional, supportive, and always on top of everything. She made a stressful situation so much easier and truly had my back the whole way.
Couldn’t recommend her more.
I had a great experience with Justine and the Hall Payne team. They were quick and very professional in handling my matter.
I highly recommend them.
Jessie was professional and understanding. She was efficient and timely in moving things forward. It was a pleasure working with her.
I initially contacted Leanne at Hall and Payne Lawyers for help with obtaining my Australian Citizenship. Leanne gave invaluable help and guidance throughout the citizenship process.
Her expertise, patience and attention to detail made what could have been a daunting experience feel manageable and smooth. Communication was excellent and Leanne kept my informed every step of the way.
I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with immigration/citizenship issues.
