Don’t suffer financial hardship from your injury
If you have been injured due to an incident then you have come to the right personal injury law firm. Depending on your situation, you may be entitled to claim compensation for all your medical expenses as a result of the injury you sustained. You may also be eligible for either or both past and future economic loss plus a potential lump sum payment. This is calculated on the basis of hindrance this accident has had on your enjoyment of life such as no longer being able to play footy with your kids or lift weights in the gym.
Personal Injury Class Actions
Class actions can also be brought under one of the types of compensation claims when the negligent act of the person or company against whom the claim is being brought, has affected a large number of individuals as opposed to a single person.
If you have been injured through no fault of you own and suffered loss as a result, speak to one of our personal injury lawyers today about your entitlement to make a personal injury claim.
The majority of personal injury claims are settled outside of court. This is done through dispute resolution, either by way of informal settlement conference or mediation. One of these types of dispute resolution are always attempted before the matter proceeds to assessment conference or hearing to be determined by an Assessor or Judge.
No Win No Fee
Generally, compensation claims are run on a No Win No Fee basis which means that you don’t pay a cent on legal fees if you are unsuccessful, however be weary that most solicitors still charge for disbursements (that is any costs other than their time that they incur). This can still amount to a fairly hefty bill.
At Jameson Law, we have a guaranteed No Win No Fee Agreement including any disbursements we incur to run your case. This means that if your claim is not successful, we do not charge you anything. This allows us to maintain a high rate of success as we will let you know upfront, if we feel that your case will not win.
Any costs payable to Jameson Law will be deducted from, and will not exceed, any compensation that you are entitled to receive meaning you will not pay anything out of pocket.

Pain and suffering are proved by medical evidence. This includes clinical notes and reports from treating doctors, diagnostic imaging reports (x-rays, MRIs, CT scans) as well as obtaining reports from doctors who are authorised to comment of the degree of impairment. The maximum amount of compensation that can be awarded for pain and suffering is $521,000.
Can I make an additional claim with my Superannuation insurance?
Definitely. If you are unable to work in your occupation as a result of the accident, then we will compile a TPD claim with each of your superannuation providers with whom you are insured.
TPD is different from regular personal injury claims as the entitlements are awarded by the superannuation fund. TPD is an insurance cover that most superannuation funds provide to their clients.
To be eligible to claim for TPD;
you must have suffered an injury or illness
this injury or illness is the reason that you have ceased work
you have not been working for the past 3 months

What are the most common types of Personal Injury Claims?
Motor Vehicle Accidents
If you have sustained an injury in a motor vehicle accident through no fault of your own, either physical and/or psychiatric in nature, you may be entitled to make a claim. Car and other motorised vehicle accidents are an everyday occurrence in every Australian state, and therefore there are strict rules and regulations governing compensations for victims of such accidents. You will need to speak to a personal injury lawyer to establish whether your injuries will entitle you to a compensation claim. Lawyers at Jameson law can assist you in your personal injury claim if you have been injured as a result of a car accident which occurred in NSW, QLD, VIC and the ACT. As noted above, motor vehicle accident claims are commenced by lodging a claim form with the relevant CTP insurer. The claim form is uniform across all insurer’s and can be obtained from the State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA) website, which is the board that regulates motor vehicle accident claims in NSW. There has been a drastic change to the motor vehicle accident claim process in NSW since December 2017 following the implementation of the Motor Accident Injuries Act 2017 NSW. It is recommended that you speak to a Lawyer immediately or as soon as possible following a motor vehicle accident to ensure that your claim form is lodged within the time limits. A claim for weekly benefits should be lodged within 28 days. If you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident involving a car or motor vehicle on the road, visit our road and car accident page for more information on how to make a claim.
Workers Compensation
Employers are bound by the law. Employers are bound by the law to provide a safe working environment for their employees and to take all precautions to eliminate risks and prevent injury. If an employee has been injured at work, they have entitlements to claim for personal injury compensation. Worker’s compensation also covers dust injury claims for example asbestosis which is a disease caused by the inhalation of asbestos fibres for an extended period of time. Visit our Workers Compensation page to see if you are entitled to make a claim.Public Liability
Public places such as shopping centres, schools, supermarkets, footpaths and roads ought to be safe for all people. Owners and/or people responsible for public places must take all necessary actions to ensure that their patrons are not at risk of sustaining personal injury or harm. If you have been involved in an accident in a public place, contact our law firm to speak to a personal injury lawyer about your potential of recovering personal injury compensation.Medical Negligence
Every health professional such as a GP, surgeon or a dentist has a duty of care towards their patients. Medical malpractice is when a medical professional breaches their duty of care and causes injury or harm to their patient through an act or an omission of an act- that is a failure to do something. his does not have to be an intentional act or omission. Once it is established that duty of care has been breached and an injury has been sustained as a result; this gives rise to claim for personal injury compensation. Visit our medical negligence page for more information.Abuse Claims
The Australian law provides a detailed compensation scheme for those who suffered institutional sexual abuse, along with civil claims against the perpetrators for pain and trauma. Due to the claims’ sensitive nature, time limits are of the essence. If you’re a survivor, reach out to us as soon as you can and book in an initial consultation.Product Liability
The Australian law protects consumers against faulty products by imposing a duty of care on companies to produce faulty-free products. We can make a personal injury claim on your behalf under product liability in the case of defective components, machinery, or vehicles, hazardous chemical products or pharmaceuticals, faulty goods, electronics, or appliances, and medical devices or implants which don’t perform their functions and instead cause personal injury. If you’ve encountered a similar situation, our team can provide you with adequate legal advice to proceed with your compensation claim.Income Protection and Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Claims

To be eligible to claim for TPD;
you must have suffered an injury or illness
this injury or illness is the reason that you have ceased work
