Call us for free advice on how much you can claim.

If you’ve been injured in an accident at work, you might be entitled to claim workers compensation. Law Partners can help you claim everything you’re entitled to.

If you’ve developed an illness because of your work, you might be entitled to claim workers compensation. Law Partners can help you claim everything you’re entitled to.

If you’ve developed a psychological injury or condition as a result of your work, you might be entitled to compensation. Our workers compensation specialists have an excellent track record of successful claims for psychological injuries.

Our clients are at the heart of everything we do.

Here’s what they say about us.

I was reluctant at first to put a claim in but I contacted Law Partners and was called back by Elyse to have a chat. From that moment on, Elyse, Brooke & Sarah have been brilliant. They have answered all my questions straight away, explained everything in detail, given me all the different options available and in the end, resolved my matter with a positive outcome. It has been a very pleasant experience working with them and I would gladly recommend Law Partners, Elyse and her team. Thank you!

I just wanted to say thank you for everything Law Partners have done for my family and I over the last 18 or so months. Thank you so much for handling our case with the utmost professionalism and thank you for always being just a phone call or email away to answer our questions and give us a great result.

I moved from another firm to Law Partners and right from the start it was a totally different experience. My solicitor Sarah King and her paralegal Cassandra Hughes were empathetic, encouraging and highly attentive.
I received regular updates, they sought to clarify issues as they arose,
They prepared for each new step and checked in with me after each new event in the process.
They turned a scary experience into an ok experience with a positive outcome.
I cannot recommend them enough.
Thank you thank you.

I would highly recommend Law Partners to assist anyone with their compensation claim, I was represented by Ben Cortese and one of the paralegals, Allisa.

I was beyond happy with Ben and Allisa’s amazing professionalism and dedication in achieving the best possible outcome for my case, as I was involved in a serious car accident which left me with a broken nose and emotional trauma, they were there to guide me at every step of the way and supported me throughout the whole process, an absolutely amazing team.

I truly can’t thank the team at Law Partners enough. The amazing work that Jennifer and her team and Elyse and her team are doing for me is appreciated beyond what I can convey here in a short review.

The friendly, thorough and professional manner in which they’ve all approached my case has helped me tremendously during this difficult period in my life.

Just had my first phone call, and so far feel relieved. Matthew who took my initial inquiry was empathetic and professional and Antonela who discussed my potential case was professional, courteous and warm. It made me feel like someone was on my side and I wasn’t alone. I wish I’d called sooner.

What can I say? Absolutely amazing support and results from Lydia and her team at Law Partners. Dealing with an accident claim since 2019 and have had nothing but the best service.

I’d like to thank Lydia and the team for going above and beyond through the whole process of the claim. This will definitely help with the process of getting back on track with life after a traumatic accident.

Thank you again.

My lawyer Elyse Bonnici and her team were an absolute dream to deal with. Nothing was ever to much trouble, no matter how many questions I ask, it was never too many. She made me feel like I was THE most important case she was dealing with.

She dealt with me in a professional, friendly and caring manner. I would highly recommend Law Partners, especially Elyse.

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
