Testimonials
Below are some examples of otherwise tragic situations that have given rise to a successful claim or other restorative outcome.
- A woman who received a faulty breast implant in Australia after they were withdrawn from sale in the US.
- A child who, through an accident, suffered brain injury and was left with virtually no capabilities. This case was settled for an amount that enabled him to live a more comfortable life.
- A store man who worked in a job where the nature and conditions of the continuing work environment lead to injury. For instance, where a job requiring repetitive lifting lead to back problems.
- A driver who was held up while working and received a needle stick injury; creating significant relationship strains and which may lead to him contracting HIV or hepatitis. In this case we are pursuing a workers compensation claim based on the psychological damage and are also monitoring his situation because a substantial victims compensation claim may arise.
- A victim of sexual abuse which occurred in an institution brought a victims compensation claim and was also able to successfully sue.
- A kitchen hand who was working "under the table" was burnt on the job. Working illegally when she sustained the injury she would not be covered by workers compensation, yet she was able to bring a successful claim.
Please note: Any situation of event described in this site is used as an example only and may not necessarily be applicable in any other case.

A word of caution: if you make a fraudulent workers compensation claim there are severe penalties that apply. Also note that willful injuries can not be legally claimed.
