Not one to shy away from debate and confrontation – an important attribute in a male-dominated industry – Donna Scully is an advocate not just for women, but for the entire insurance community. For more than 30 years, Scully has passionately defended the interests of injured people, always going above and beyond to facilitate open debate and continuous dialogue on issues and solutions surrounding claims, whiplash and fraud.
Scully works closely with major insurance companies to bridge the existing divide within the sector and has been a balanced voice during ongoing whiplash reform discussions. Known for her efforts to collaborate with the industry to combat fraud, Scully helped establish AskCUE PI, a universally required search of insurer databases to detect previous claims and prevent fraud. She was also chair of the Motor Accident Solicitors Society [MASS] for two years, created the Fraud Forum at MASS in 2010 and provided strong leadership during major reforms to the civil justice funding system. Scully has also hosted and organised multiple roundtables and events to confront issues on women’s role in the insurance industry.
