Fiona Ellis, Legal Practice Director

Fiona graduated with a LLB (Hons) from Charles Darwin University, and was admitted as a Lawyer to the Supreme Court of Western Australia after completing a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice with Business Certification. She further completed the Legal Practice Management Course with the College of Law enabling her to practice as the Principal of Alba Legal Pty Ltd, of which she is the company director.

Formerly employed by one of Bunbury's local law firms with experience at a rural private practice in Katanning and also with Aboriginal Legal Service of WA, Bunbury she classes herself as a Generalist Lawyer who practices is several areas of Law rather than a Specialist Lawyer that is expert in complex matters in one area of Law. This is reflected in her lower charge out rate and fixed pricing for smaller matters.

She was called to Law later in life after serving the local community as a Sister at St John of God Hospital, Bunbury and a Practice Nurse at both Bunbury Medical Centre and Brecken Health. On deciding to pursue further studies with a Masters in Nurse Practitioner, she found her self drawn to legal courses and decided to make the career change into the legal profession. She completed her law studies full time whilst working parttime as a Radiology Nurse to support her family being the sole carer to 3 children. She therefore understands how difficult it can be to make ends meet in todays society and the importance of providing cost effective solutions to legal problems.

Her background and highly competitive spirit lends her to be results focused and goal orientated rather than financially motivated. This philosophy allows her to provide results driven, high quality, low cost legal services to the local area. Fiona has time and patience for everyone and every pocket. It is always worth a 15 minute free no obligation appointment as to how to best to proceed.
