The matter took some time due to the complicated nature of different injuries for different accidents and different insurers.  We were able to get all parties together and resolve the matters for a total of $910,000 just prior to hearing.  

Nate had very little memory of an accident where he was riding his motorbike around a bend and swerved off the road colliding into a letterbox.  At the time, he was living at home and working as an apprentice mechanic.  Nate has a history of Asperger’s, ADHD and OCD.  The matter was denied by the insurance company and was proceeding towards a final court hearing.

Premier lawyers retained a negligence expert to provide a report as to the circumstances of the accident and the medical reports were also supportive.  We participated in a settlement conference with the legal representatives of the insurer and were able to obtain a settlement of $850,000.  In order to assist Nate, we provided him with an advance until his settlement money came through.  Nate is now able to move on with his life and look for suitable employment.

When John contacted us he was unaware of his rights against the insurer of the at fault driver, NRMA, and his claim was significantly out of time.

Premier Lawyers succeeded in having NRMA accept the claim despite it being lodged out of time. When John’s permanent impairment was assessed at 4% by a government doctor from the Medical Assessment Service, we successfully appealed this decision, increasing the figure for John’s permanent impairment to 30%. This meant John was entitled to much more compensation.

NRMA made an initial settlement offer of $20,000, which we knew to be far less than the true value of the claim. Six months later we negotiated a settlement sum for John of $475,000.

Karina decided to deal with the insurer on her own and came to an agreement with them to settle her case for $10,422.13.

Soon after, Karina got in touch with us and instructed us to look into her settlement as she felt that the insurer had taken advantage of her.

We agreed with Karina, took on her case and got the insurer to undo the settlement.

Not long after we were able to settle Karina’s claim for $575,000.

The insurer of the other car denied fault and blamed Steve for the accident saying it was his fault. Therefore the insurer stated he is not entitled to any compensation.

Steve instructed us to commence a claim on his behalf. The matter was lodged in the District Court of New South Wales and thereafter we settled the matter for $275,000.
