Thomas was admitted as a Solicitor to the New South Wales Supreme Court in 1998.
Thomas specialises in general insurance and compensation law and has acted for thousands of injured people in work accidents, motor vehicle accidents and negligence cases over the last 18 years. He also acts for leading Australian insurers, underwriting managers, brokers and other risk carriers in relation to bringing and defending insurance recovery claims in many Australian jurisdictions.
Thomas’ background both litigious and litigious encompasses working both in private practice and in house.
The first decade in legal practice saw Thomas advising and conducting defendant litigation on behalf of Insurance companies. This knowledge and experience gained provided him with a valuable insight into how insurers operate in the compensation market. Such knowledge and insight has given Thomas a balanced view of both the plaintiff and defendant’s claim positions which in turn operates to better secure fair and reasonable compensation for his client’s.
