Being a calm-natured and patient person, I find that the best way to help my clients with their claims is to first focus on listening to them and understanding their needs, and then set about fulfilling those needs and exceeding their expectations.

Antonela was accommodating, reassuring and simply just kind and considerate. She made me feel as if I was making the right decision by moving forward and contacting them for help. I can’t thank you enough.

I am lucky enough to have Angy Basal and Georgia McPherson on my side all the way through to my worker compensation claim. Since they took over my case, I never worried about legal side. Very professional and very easy to reach and understand a situation really well and finally they have won a legal battle with my insurer.

I will highly recommend Law Partners to those who are struggling with legal battles with insurance or with their employer. Thanks very much for treating me with dignity and respect.

Thank you for the final paperwork and the transfer of funds into my account. After my car accident I was advised by my grandson’s girlfriend who is a solicitor, to get the services of a compensation law firm. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending your company to anyone who might need a law firm in the future.

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.

From my very first meeting with Natalie I felt comfortable, supported and heard. This was very important to me after what I had been through. Natalie spoke in terms that were easy for me to understand.
The whole process was smooth and made easier for me knowing I had Natalie’s support. I was pleased with outcome.
Thank you to Natalie and her team for making this episode in my life easier to navigate than I had thought it would be.

How long will my claim take?

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
