A specialist lawyer will review your circumstances and tell you how much you can claim.

What can I claim?

It’s hard enough to cope with an unexpected injury – you shouldn’t have to deal with financial pain too. Depending on your injuries, you may be entitled to payments for lost income, medical expenses, travel expenses, domestic assistance, pain and suffering, permanent impairment, and future losses. Call us for free advice on how much you can claim.

Common claims include:

Negligent treatment is when an injury, illness or worsening of a condition has occurred as a result of medical treatment that was below the expected standard of care. If you’ve suffered medical problems or losses due to negligent treatment, it’s likely you can sue your doctor for medical negligence and claim compensation.

This usually involves actions or inactions that lead to delays in administration of appropriate and timely treatment, or administration of incorrect treatment or no treatment at all. If you believe that you’re a victim of medical negligence as a result of misdiagnosis or a delay in diagnosis, you may be entitled to damages.

If birth injuries or defects could have been prevented by the treating medical practitioner by exercising reasonable skill and care, then you may be able to make a medical negligence claim. We’ll help you claim everything you’re entitled to.

To determine whether you can sue your plastic or cosmetic surgeon, we need to first determine whether the surgeon breached their duty of care. If your cosmetic or plastic surgery has gone wrong, our specialist medical negligence solicitors can review your situation and advise you on whether you have a strong claim.

I have been very fortunate to have picked a team which shows professionalism and caring about a very personal matter giving always there time even out of the working hours to care about someone and show that it’s more than just a matter.

They have made my problem much more easier to deal with and have shown me the respect in continuous follow-ups to make me understand and deal with this matter in a much easier way without Angy and Chantille it would be very hard road to take. Thank you for caring and thank you for making me feel important in such a hard situation.

Thank you and all your staff for the help you have provided in these trying times. I was feeling pretty negative about my future but after my first meeting with my lawyer I knew I had someone on my side who really wanted to help me. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending you to anyone who needs your services.

After an injury that totally removed me from the workforce my future was bleak. I approached several Law companies receiving very little guidance, then I found Law Partners. With my settlement I keep my home and possessions and family intact. I also have good friends for life in the team at Law Partners.

Team Roger, Renee and Isabella are fantastic and very patient, you will be respected by this professional team. Car accidents are a minefield with insurance companies, I really recommend these people, and am grateful I chose Roger as my solicitor. Law Partners also have the best information on the internet. I chose Roger out of many firms I spoke with. You will see why once you meet.

Shanelle's story

Shanelle's story

I didn't choose to seek compensation, I needed to

When department manager and devoted mother Shanelle was refused surgery for her injury, she turned to us for help. “It’s just good to know that there are people out there who actually care that I’m injured. And that’s what Law Partners is about – they care.”


Frequently asked questions.

If you’ve been injured in an accident and incurred any treatment costs or had any time off work to recover, you’re more than likely to be eligible to claim compensation. Or if you’re unable to work because of injury or illness, then you may be able to claim a lump sum payout though your super fund.

Depending on your injuries and how they happened, you may be able to claim compensation for lost income, medical expenses, travel expenses and home help. You may also be entitled to lump sum payments for pain and suffering, permanent impairment, or future losses.

  • We get to know you. We’ll get to know you personally, listen to your side of the story and give you free advice on your options.
  • We ask more questions. We’ll look beyond the obvious and see if your injuries have led to other complications, to claim everything you’re entitled to.
  • We build the evidence. Led by your lawyer, your dedicated team including hand-picked medical specialists will build strong evidence to maximise your claim.
  • We pursue your claim. We win over 99% of our cases and we’ll fight until you receive the compensation you’re entitled to and deserve.
  • You receive your compensation. Your compensation will be paid into your bank account.

Most personal injury claims settle within 9 to 18 months; however, some can take longer. The amount of time it takes to settle your claim is determined by:

  • How long it takes for your injuries to stabilise so that they can be assessed by medical experts
  • Whether the insurer accepts liability for your injuries
  • Whether we reach an agreed settlement with the insurer quickly
  • If we don’t reach a settlement with the insurer and need to litigate the matter, it can take longer than 18 months
