National legal practice Colin Biggers & Paisley has appointed Selcuk Gokmen as a senior associate in its insurance team, based in Melbourne.
Gokmen packs experience in both the insurance industry and private practice, bringing Colin Biggers & Paisley’s liability team a holistic perspective to the defence of insurance claims. He will be working closely with partner Ana Kolovos and special counsel Tim Coghlan in Melbourne.
"[Gokmen’s] appointment is in direct alignment with our values and culture and we're absolutely delighted to welcome him to our Melbourne team,” said Cathryn Prowse, co-group head of the national insurance team. “With more than a decade's experience in insurance law, combined with experience working for a multinational insurance company, his skills and vibrant energy will be invaluable in his work with Ana and Tim, who lead our large liability portfolio.”
The appointment of Selcuk follows six senior promotions in the insurance team earlier this year in what Prowse called a “growth trajectory” for the team.
