Francis Burt Chambers is pleased to welcome Jen Perera.
Prior to joining the Bar, Jen was an Assistant State Solicitor at the State Solicitor’s Office in the Public and General Litigation Team.
Jen commenced her legal career in 2017 as Professional Assistant to the Solicitor-General of Western Australia, working with Peter Quinlan SC and Joshua Thomson SC (as their Honours then were) on significant constitutional and native title cases in the High Court of Australia.
Following her admission, Jen continued to be involved in numerous High Court cases (including as junior counsel) while building led and unled trial and appellate counsel experience in regulatory prosecutions and acting for government defendants in historical child sexual abuse and other personal injury matters.
Jen is onboarding through our pupillage programme, and we are excited to be a part of this new journey in her career.
Please join us in giving our newest member a warm welcome.
