Why us

Why Injured Victorians Choose Us

Six things that shape how we work with every client, from the first call onward.

Claims Are Our Only Focus

We don't practise across ten areas of law and treat TAC matters as one of them. This is the whole job, which means fewer surprises and faster judgment calls when something in your claim shifts.

No Win, No Fee — We Cover Your Costs Too

You won't pay us unless compensation actually lands in your hands. Ask us plainly about disbursements and fee terms before anything is signed, so there's nothing to untangle later.

One Senior Lawyer, From Start to Finish

The person who takes your first call is the same person managing your file on the day it's resolved. No handovers, no re-telling your story to someone new.

We Come to You — At Home, In Hospital, Anywhere in Victoria

If getting to an office isn't realistic right now, we'll come to wherever is easier for you.

Compassionate Support, Not Just Legal Casework

We stay mindful that a claim file represents a person going through something hard, and we try to bring some patience to that, on top of doing the legal work properly.

Honest, No-Jargon Advice From Day One

We'll tell you plainly what your claim looks like, including the parts that are weaker, not just the parts that sound good.

The process

How the Claims Process Works

Four stages, from your first conversation to the money actually arriving.

  1. 01

    Free Case Review

    A no-cost conversation to hear what happened and work out what you're entitled to.

  2. 02

    We Lodge and Manage Your Claim

    We prepare your paperwork, gather medical evidence, and take over all contact with the TAC.

  3. 03

    We Negotiate, Escalate and Fight for You

    If your claim is slow, underpaid, or knocked back, we push it forward through review, dispute or negotiation.

  4. 04

    You Receive Your Compensation

    We confirm every entitlement is accounted for before your claim is closed out.

In their words

Real Outcomes for Victorians

What it's actually like to work with us, from people who've been through it.

I didn't understand any of the paperwork when I started. They walked me through every step and dealt with the TAC directly so I didn't have to keep calling anyone myself.

Michael R.

Motorcycle accident, Frankston

Impairment benefit claim resolved

My payments were cut off while I was still recovering. It took a few weeks, but they got it reinstated and kept me updated the whole way through.

Amara D.

Pedestrian accident, Melbourne

Income support dispute resolved

Losing my brother was hard enough without trying to work out what we were entitled to. They were patient with our family and never rushed us through it.

The Reyes Family

Family and dependency claim, Ballarat

Dependency claim resolved

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what Victorians ask us most.

Generally 12 months from the date of the accident, with an absolute outer limit of 3 years in limited circumstances. A common law claim has a longer window, generally 6 years, but the earlier you're in touch, the more evidence and options stay open.
