Angela's expertise

Angela joined Turner Freeman Lawyers in early 2018 after completing her law degree at Murdoch University. Angela practices in personal injury including workers’ compensation, industrial deafness and dust disease litigation.

Angela acts for workers in general workers’ compensation claims and is passionate about ensuring injured workers are compensated appropriately. Angela provides advice and representation across all aspects of workers’ compensation claims and also acts on behalf of members of the United Professional Firefighters Union of Western Australia and The Rail, Tram and Bus Union in regards to workers’ compensation matters.
Angela also acts on behalf of workers’ who suffer from work related hearing loss such as noise induced hearing loss and tinnitus. These claims are brought through WorkCover WA and Angela assists her clients to ensure the process of bringing an industrial deafness claim (also called noise induced hearing loss) is completed with ease and their entitlements are maximised so they can afford the necessary medical expenses, such as hearing aids. Angela successfully brought the first claim for noise induced hearing loss on behalf of a retired firefighter in Western Australia.

Client Testimonials

“Just wanted to say a big massive thank you to Angela and Megan from your Perth office. Angela took over my case and got the ball rolling and to have Angela finally sort it out and get it all settled I feel like a big weight lifted off my shoulders. The stress on a person mentally is extremely draining and actually does more harm to someone then the actual injury, So to have her overtake and get it settled means the world to me and I’m so grateful to have had Angela and Megan support me through thick and thin. Neither one of these beautiful lady’s turned their back on me. They deserve a massive amount of recognition for everything they do…. So THANK YOU ANGELA & MEGAN… You both are amazing!”

Your kindness and professionalism was very much appreciated by us both, and especially me.  I was feeling a bit overwhelmed with the whole process and you certainly simplified it and made it easy to grasp for a layperson. We would like to wish you every success for the future and hope that if ever we are in need of legal assistance we will be more than happy to seek out your help.

Angela, just wanted to thank you personally and the Turner Freeman team for your knowledge and advice in relation to my worker’s compensation claim, as it was accepted and I am now 1 week post surgery. Will definitely keep Turner Freeman in mind if any issues arise and I will recommend anyone I know to you.

Just a quick note to say thank you for your exemplary work over the past couple of days in rather difficult circumstances. Huge kudos for being proactive and very client focused in getting DVA onside and the paperwork sorted out.  Thank you for going the extra mile and for your calm, composing and respectful manner.
