Michelle Antunovich

Senior Lawyer / Legal Director

Michelle joined Trewin Norman in 2020 and following previous leadership roles at two national firms, took up a directorship from 1 July 2020. Michelle graduated from Murdoch University in 2006 with a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. After completing her honours thesis studying the “helping behaviour” of humans, she took time off to travel before starting her career in personal injury law. Michelle was admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of WA in 2009 and to the High Court of Australia in 2011. She has worked on a wide range of personal injury claims since being admitted into practice, including catastrophic injury claims, fatal accident claims, motor vehicle and workplace injury claims, public liability claims, and claims for victims of crime. Michelle is a keen gardener and Dockers supporter, and when she isn’t working, you will probably find her wetting a line desperately trying to join the 1m dhu club.
