Andrew Van Berkel
New Client Guide
Works in Melbourne
Andrew is a final-year Juris Doctor student at the University of Melbourne, having previously completed a Bachelor of Biomedicine. His combined interest in health and the law has naturally led him toward the personal injury space.
Before entering the legal field, Andrew spent several years working on construction sites. This experience, together with his medical sciences background and completion of a university course in personal injury litigation, has helped him understand the challenges people face after being injured at work, on the road, or in a medical setting. He aims to approach each client’s situation with empathy and practicality.
At Polaris, Andrew assists with legal research and has been supporting work on the potential class action relating to Vitamin B6 toxicity.
Outside of work, you’ll find Andrew at the footy or on the golf course.
