Our insurance company experience puts us in pole position to deliver for you

Insurance companies and workplace regulators are not the enemy. Without an insurer (or regulator) you don't have a claim. But they do need to be handled appropriately.

Let us show you the way to a successful claim without unnecessary stress.

We offer “no win, no fee” legal representation for personal injury claims. You can learn more about how we charge here.

It costs you nothing to find out where you stand.

In compensation law matters we operate under a no win, no fee model, as plaintiff solicitors and barristers have done so for decades.

This means that if we accept you as a client:

  • We will not charge you upfront fees;
  • If you lose your case, you will not pay our fees.
  • If you win your case, you will be required to pay our fees which will, ordinarily, be taken out of any compensation benefits you receive or will be claimed on top of the compensation from the insurer.
