Injury & Illness

Injury & Illness

We offer no win no-fee arrangements for eligible injury and illness claims. This means you will only pay legal fees if and when you receive compensation, making it possible to explore your legal options without significant financial risk.

Injury & Illness

Motor Vehicle Accidents

If you’re a driver, passenger, cyclist or pedestrian injured in a collision involving a motor vehicle, you may be entitled to compensation. For most motor accident claims, we are able to act for you on a no win, no fee basis.

Workers Compensation

If you’ve suffered an injury at work or a work-related illness, you may be entitled to compensation. Talk to our specialist Workers Compensation team about potentially receiving cover for your medical travel and rehabilitation expenses, as well as income maintenance.

Medical Negligence

When a health professional in any position fails in their duty and causes an injury, it may be possible to claim compensation to cover medical expenses, rehabilitation and loss of income when recovering, as well as future loss of income.

Disability Claims (TPD)

If you are permanently unable to return to work due to illness or injury, you may be entitled to a Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) benefit through the insurance cover provided as part of your superannuation.


Birth Injuries

If a birth injury to a child or mother is due to the negligent actions or omissions of a medical professional or hospital, compensation can be claimed for the emotional and financial damage caused by the birth injury.

Hearing Loss

If you’ve suffered hearing loss and/or tinnitus from noise exposure at work, you may be eligible to claim lump sum compensation, as well as compensation for the cost of hearing aids and other associated expenses.

Class Actions

If you’ve suffered a financial or other loss as a result of the actions of an organisation or government department, you may be able to claim compensation as part of a class action, where legal costs are shared across the class.

Public Liability

If you’ve been injured in a public or private space and it wasn’t your fault, you may be entitled to claim compensation for financial and other losses resulting from your injury.

I couldn’t believe it. My doctor had caused my injury. The person I’d trusted to make things better had instead made everything so much worse. I was afraid of never recovering, anxious about what was ahead of me, disappointed, and most of all, angry.
