Maria Bastas
Office Manager
I joined Patinos Personal Lawyers in 2023 as an Administration Assistant. I have worked in the legal industry for over 17 years for various Litigation and Commercial firms in New South Wales and Queensland.
Since joining Patinos, I have enjoyed the diversity of work, during which no two days are the same. The culture at Patinos Personal Lawyers, with its supportive and talented members of staff, has enabled me to grow and be the best I can be in my role.
When I am not immersing myself in my career, I enjoy spending time with my family, road trips, and going to the beach.
