Caitlan Pehm

Senior Associate

Caitlan has worked in the legal industry since 2010 and joined Neville Hourn + Borg in 2012 as a legal secretary. Over the course of her career with the firm, she progressed to Senior Paralegal before becoming a solicitor and, now, Senior Associate.

Caitlan completed the Diploma in Law through the Legal Profession Admission Board and was admitted as a lawyer of the Supreme Court of New South Wales on 4 June 2021. She also holds a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice and is an Approved Legal Service Provider to the Independent Review Office (IRO).

Throughout her legal studies, Caitlan continued to work full-time at Neville Hourn + Borg, gaining extensive practical experience in litigation, personal injury and negligence law. This early exposure provided her with a strong practical foundation and an understanding of the litigation process well before her admission. Since then, she has been involved in a broad range of matters at both State and Federal levels.

Caitlan’s practice focuses primarily on personal injury and compensation law, with particular experience in workers compensation claims, work injury damages claims, motor vehicle accident claims, public liability claims and total and permanent disability claims. She also has experience in general litigation, debt recovery, wills and estate planning.

Caitlan prides herself on being approachable, accessible and straightforward with her clients. She understands that navigating a legal claim can be overwhelming and is committed to providing clear, practical and realistic advice at every stage. Her approach moves away from the traditional “lawyer mould”, ensuring her clients feel comfortable, informed and confident that their matter is in capable hands.
