How Can A Trauma Lawyer Help Me?
The process of making a claim for trauma or birth trauma can be stressful, particularly if you are still experiencing the after-effects of illness or injury, or caring for loved ones. Financial aid is often needed urgently to replace lost income or to help fund medical expenses. If you and your family are having difficulties navigating the claims process or an insurer is disputing your claim, our critical illness lawyers can help.
Insurers may request in-depth information and documentation to support your claim, including medical records or other evidence relating to your claim. To be able to receive benefit payment quickly, it’s important to provide information as quickly as possible to avoid delays. Our expert lawyers can provide valuable assistance to clients who wish to claim by providing advice, representation, and support throughout the process.

You’ve probably seen a lot of lawyers use the term ‘No Win, No Fee’. Long story short: you only pay us when you achieve a successful outcome. So if you don’t get paid, we don’t get paid.
Let’s break it down.
- We start by reviewing your claim in detail and give you a clear assessment of your prospects for success. We’re experts in compensation law, so we can give you an accurate assessment of your claim.
- Once we’ve established that you should pursue your claim, you can tell us if you want us to proceed as your legal representatives. To formally appoint us as your legal representative, you will enter into a ‘Conditional Costs Agreement’ with us. This is a legal contract that sets out the likely costs of running your claim based on our fees, as well as the rights and responsibilities of you as the client and us as your legal representatives.
- We’ll explain it clearly and thoroughly, with as little legal speak as possible – we promise you’ll understand it completely.
- Importantly, this agreement will set out the ‘No Win, No Fee’ arrangement in black and white. This specifies that you will not pay us anything if your claim is not successful. Our ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement also covers you for disbursements, or outlays. These are expenses that we may need to pay to progress your claim, including medical reports, expert witness fees and barristers’ fees.
- In certain circumstances, you may be required to pay the other party’s legal costs if you are unsuccessful.
- Remember, your success rests on you providing us with an honest, comprehensive account of all matters relevant to your claim.
