About Our Legal Services
Who is Liable?
Anyone who caused or contributed to your loss or damage, as well as anyone who owned the property where the accident took place (if they can be proven to have failed in their care of the property) may be legally liable for the accident. If your injury occurred in a workplace, we may refer you to our workers’ compensation services for tailored advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon should I seek legal advice after an accident?
It’s important to contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Early legal advice ensures evidence is preserved, deadlines are met and your rights are protected. Waiting too long could jeopardise your claim, especially if medical records or witness statements are required to support your case.
Can I claim if the accident happened on private property?
Yes. Public liability law applies to private property if the owner or occupier was negligent. This includes slip and fall accidents, poorly maintained walkways or unsafe areas. A lawyer can assess the circumstances and advise on whether a claim is appropriate.
What compensation can I receive?
Compensation may include medical costs, rehabilitation, lost income, future treatment, pain and suffering and permanent disability support. For tradies and other workers, compensation can also cover reduced earning capacity. A lawyer will assess all aspects of your loss to ensure your claim is comprehensive.
