TSP promotes four across South-East Queensland offices

Personal injury firm Travis Schultz & Partners has promoted four lawyers across its Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast offices.

The promotions recognise the significant contributions of Candice Heisler, Libby Thomas, Karla Macpherson and Aiden Warneke, each of whom has demonstrated a strong commitment to the firm’s values, their local communities and representing injured Queenslanders.

Ms Heisler joined TSP’s Brisbane office in 2023 and has been promoted to Special Counsel.

She has 15 years of experience in compensation law and is respected for her knowledge across motor vehicle accidents, workers’ compensation, public liability and medical negligence matters, and manages complex and catastrophic injury claims.

Ms Macpherson (pictured above) is based at the firm’s Gold Coast office and has been promoted to Senior Associate.

She is known for her diligent approach and guiding clients through the challenges and complexities within the claims process.

TSP has also promoted two lawyers within its Sunshine Coast office – Libby Thomas and Aiden Warneke.

Ms Thomas (pictured above) has been promoted to Senior Associate following consistent professional recognition and multiple award nominations.

She had a background in health care.

Ms Warneke (pictured above) has been promoted to Associate. She has been with the firm since 2020 and was admitted as a lawyer in 2023.

Ms Warneke is valued for her client-focused approach, and the ability to support clients navigating serious injury and trauma.

Managing Partner Travis Schultz OAM said the promotions reflected both individual excellence and the firm’s broader commitment to developing specialist personal injury practitioners.

“These promotions reflect more than hard work and technical legal ability, they recognise the judgment, compassion and dedication needed to support our clients through some of the most difficult periods of their lives,” Mr Schultz said.

“We’re proud to be growing a team of industry leading experts who not only achieve strong results, but do so in a way that genuinely puts clients first. Strengthening that capability across Queensland remains a key focus for our firm.”
