Scott Jacobs
Solicitor
WorkCover
Following the completion of a double degree in Arts and Law at Deakin University in 2006, I completed my Articles at Wisewoulds in 2007.
I joined Wisewoulds on a part-time basis in 2003 and was able to gain professional experience in the firm’s WorkCover group at the same time as studying at University. This naturally provided a valuable introduction to litigation.
Since my admission to practice in April 2008, I have been part of the firm’s commercial litigation and insurance law and litigation teams and have appeared for clients in the Magistrates’, County and Supreme Courts, VCAT and the Coroner’s Court. I represent individual as well as corporate clients.
Throughout this time I have focused mainly on the area of public liability, though I frequently practice in areas involving personal injury, property damage, professional negligence, motor vehicle accidents, coronial inquests and general commercial disputes.

In my spare time, I listen to heaps of music, I enjoy going to the movies and catching up with friends over a drink and a bite to eat. I also really love sport. I play cricket for Kew during the summer months and over the years I have also played a fair bit of footy, tennis and basketball. I also spend every winter following my beloved Dees.
