Gavin Francis

Gavin is a solictor with very considerable experience in Personal Injury claims in all Courts and in all jurisdictions, having worked in this area with a number of other firms over many years.

Prior to joining Saines Lucas Solicitors in December 2010, Gavin not only worked as a solicitor, but also combined this work with work as a Mediator.

Since 1993, Gavin has conducted in excess of 1600 Mediations, mainly in the Personal Injury field but also in all other areas of the law. Gavin is also a graded Arbitrator.

Gavin likes his sport. Generally speaking he is now a spectator rather than a competitor. In particular, he likes AFL football. He barracks for Hawthorn.
