Erin Sellentin
B.A. LL.B - Solicitor
Erin Sellentin (nee Carey) joined Macrossan & Amiet as an Articled Clerk in January 2002, and was admitted as a Solicitor in 2004.
Born and raised in Mackay, Erin is the eldest of four children and the first in her family to graduate from university.
Erin completed her university studies at James Cook University in Townsville, and was awarded the Butterworths Book Prize and O'Shea & Dyer Family Law Prize for her academic achievements.
Erin says the decision to become a Solicitor was initially inspired by legal studies at high school. However, her family thinks being a Solicitor is the perfect job for Erin, because she gets to do her two favourite things- talk a lot and tell people what to do. At least this way her skills are put to good use!
According to Erin, the best thing about being a Solicitor is being able to help people during important, although sometimes stressful, times in their lives. Erin's particular strengths lie in her honesty, her professional ability and her personable approach to each and every client.
If she hadn't have become a Solicitor, Erin says she would have liked to have followed a more outdoors career path, maybe by becoming a professional archaeologist or the next tomb raider!
Since her admission, Erin has focused on commercial, banking and property law, these being particularly relevant to the local area. Erin's areas of expertise include all types of property transactions, business transactions, leasing, wills and estates, and a particular interest in body corporate law.
When not at work, Erin can be found playing premier league netball and spending time with her husband and young sons Riley & Jack. She also enjoys overseas travel, watching sport and movies and catching up with friends.
Upon her return to work on 18th January 2011 after a period of Maternity leave, Erin was appointed as Associate to Macrossan & Amiet Solicitors.
Area of Expertise:
- Banking & Finance
