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.

I was in a segway accident in Queensland…

I was in a segway accident in Queensland…

The open nature of a segway means that serious injuries are often sustained in a segway accident. Because segways are smaller, light weight and require balance they can be more difficult to operate safely. They can also be difficult for other road users to see. Operating a segway in Queensland can be a dangerous venture.

Examples of segway accidents are:

Being the rider of a segway and losing control on a road, footpath or bikeway/bike path
Being struck by a segway
Riding a segway and being struck by another segway or another vehicle
Losing control of a segway because of a mechanical fault

Whether you own or hired the segway involved in the accident, you may be entitled to compensation.

Common injuries sustained in a segway accident in Queensland

Common injuries sustained in a segway accident are:

Gravel Rash
Burns
Broken and fractured bones
Foot, ankle and leg injuries
Hand, wrist and arm injuries
Head and neck injuries
Spinal injuries
Nerve damage
Closed head injury
Psychological trauma

Given the nature of a segway accident, the victim often sustains serious and complex injuries and it is not unusual to suffer a trauma response. Being injured in a segway accident can be frightening, traumatic and can have lifelong consequences. A lawyer will work with you through this uncertain time.

If you have been involved in a segway accident in Queensland, we recommend reading the following articles:
