Pania Watt has built a strong practice in workers compensation, work injury damages and total and permanent disability claims in both NSW and QLD. She has a particular interest in work related Post Traumatic Stress Disorder injury claims for NSW Paramedics and Police and is known for her calm and direct approach.

Pania graduated from Southern Cross University with a Bachelor of Laws in 2009 and was admitted to the Supreme Court of Queensland in March 2010.

Pania began working alongside Brendan in 2004, initially at Northern Rivers firm Stone & Partners, and then at Bourke Love McCartney Young from 2005 to 2009. She began her practice in plaintiff insurance work at Bourke Love Lawyers after admission in 2010 and is now a Director of Bourke Legal. After working in Ballina for 13 years, Pania is now based in Bourke Legal’s office at Kingscliff.

“I get a great sense of satisfaction out of helping people who’ve been injured get back on their feet again and regain control of their lives,” says Pania. “I enjoy seeing my clients empowered by the knowledge they gain to ensure that they, or their loved ones, won’t be in the dark about their rights or entitlements in the future.”

Pania is a member of the NSW Law Society, the Far North Coast Law Society and is an Approved Legal Services Provider with IRO (Independent Review Office).

When not in the office, you will find Pania spending time with her family on the Gold Coast, where she lives with her husband and two children.
