How do you structure your fees?

We were among the first Queensland law firms to offer ‘No Win, No Fee’ services. Put simply, you pay nothing until we win your settlement through negotiation with the ‘at fault’ party or, as in most cases, their insurer. Learn more about our fees here.

What experience do you have with cases like mine?

To answer this question, we’ll need to learn more about your case or claim. Simply request your free consultation with us, tell us more about your case, and we can tell you about similar cases and the outcomes we achieved. Your consultation is “zero obligation” which means you don’t have to choose us as your lawyer.

Can you provide references from other clients?

Yes, of course. Simply request your free consultation with us, tell us what you’d like to know and the type of client you’d like to hear from, and we’ll gladly provide a reference from them. Your consultation is “zero obligation” which means you don’t have to choose us as your lawyer. Or, you can take a look at the “happy clients” on our website.

Do I have to pay for an initial consultation?

No! We will never charge you for your initial consultation. In fact, you pay nothing until you win your case. Our fees come directly from your end result, which means you don’t have to pay anything out of pocket.

What are common types of motor vehicle accident claims in Queensland?

When it comes to motor vehicle accidents in Queensland, there are different types of claims that can be made based on the circumstances of the accident. Understanding these types can help individuals know their rights and seek appropriate legal action. Some common types of car accident claims include (but are not exclusive to):

Whiplash Claims

Whiplash is a common injury resulting from motor vehicle accidents, especially rear-end collisions. Victims of whiplash may be able to claim compensation for medical expenses and pain and suffering.

Minor Injury Claims

These claims typically involve minor injuries such as bruises, cuts, or sprains. While the injuries may be minor, individuals may be able to seek compensation for medical costs and any impact on their daily life.

Serious Injury Claims

In cases of severe injuries such as broken bones, head injuries, or spinal cord injuries, victims may be entitled to significant compensation. These claims can cover medical treatment, rehabilitation, lost income, and long-term care.

Fatal Accident Claims

When a car accident results in the death of a loved one, the family of the deceased can file a fatal accident claim. This claim can provide compensation for funeral expenses, loss of income, and the emotional impact of the loss.
