Who we are
Introducing our team of lawyers, paralegals and support staff.
Jennifer Samuta (NEE MCCOMBER)
DIRECTOR & PRINCIPAL SOLICITOR
Contact: jennifer@samutamccomber.com.au
I started Samuta McComber Lawyers after working as a solicitor in private practice, the community legal sector, and running my own Migration Agency. After several years of practice I saw a distinct need across various ethnic communities in Australia for accessible and relatable solicitors .
I have a strong interest in representing clients who are facing the cancellation of their visa and facing deportation under sections 116 and 501 of the Migration Act 1958. I have had a number of success for my clients in their appeals to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.
I am passionate about my work, but the high regard I that I have for family, freedom and fairness is what lights my fire and fuels my fight on behalf of my clients. I am an advocate for Pacific Islanders living in Australia, who are impacted by immigration laws and policies in a distinct way according to their cultural and social ties to this country.
KOLInio SAMUTA
CLIENT RELATIONS (SYDNEY & BRISBANE)
Contact: kolinio@samutamccomber.com.au
I am an iTaukei (Fijian) speaker and am the initial contact point for Fijians living in Australia or overseas who prefer to communicate in their native language.
Communication and understanding is always important, but especially during significant life events such as migrating to another country for family or work. I work very closely with Jennifer and Meka, and believe that overcoming a potential language barrier will assist clients with obtaining a better understanding of their current visa status or their prospects for migration to Australia.
My multi-faceted life experience gives me the advantage of compassion, empathy and understanding.
When I’m not at the office, I can be found training either myself or my three sons on the athletics track. In my earlier years I represented Fiji as a decathlete at international competitions.
