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.

Will I be successful in my claim as a passenger in a public transport accident?

Will I be successful in my claim as a passenger in a public transport accident?

As a public transport passenger you have very little to no control of the way a vehicle is operated and how the driver responds to the surrounding circumstances. Being injured as a passenger in a public transport accident can feel so unfair and out of your control.

If you were injured in a public transport accident in Queensland, you are able to seek compensation for any injuries and associated losses that you sustained.

While we can’t guarantee success without knowing the specific circumstances of your accident, prospects of a successful outcome for a passenger in a public transport accident in Queensland are very high. It would be very rare for a passenger to be the at fault party and be unsuccessful in a claim for compensation.

The issue of winning or losing any claim rests on liability, that means proving someone else is at fault and responsible for the accident. The person who caused the accident may be the driver of the vehicle you were travelling in, or the driver of another vehicle.

The person who caused the accident is the negligent party. The party at fault may have been careless, operated the vehicle carelessly, failed to stop, drove without due care and attention, the at fault party may even be unidentified, in the case of a hit and run.
