If you’ve seen an ad for a legal firm on the back of a bus or by the side of the motorway, chances are they do compensation. For many law firms, it’s one of many practice areas they offer – along with wills and estates, commercial, contracts, family law, and on and on. They have lots of different lawyers working across lots of different matters.

At Lifestyle Injury Lawyers, we only do compensation. It’s our speciality. Whether it’s a road accident, a work accident, a slip and trip in a public place, or a total and permanent disability claim through superannuation, these are the sort of claims made by our clients which we devote our entire focus and energy to every day.

And unlike those other firms, we’re not huge. That means we give each matter we take on our personal attention. We make it a priority to keep each and every one of our clients informed and we always return phone calls! This can make a big difference in compensation claims, when people are also dealing with the physical and emotional challenges of injury – pain, rehabilitation and recovery. The last thing you need is to be stressing over dealings with your lawyer.

Why we’re different

Some compensation claims can be complicated. Gathering the evidence to support the claim, undergoing important medical assessments and dealing with insurance companies are all time-consuming and sometimes challenging aspects of making a claim. But our dedicated team of specialists are here to guide you through the process, clarifying each step and the expected timeline.

The challenges of making a claim are off-putting for many injured people, despite having a valid case for compensation. They may see the costs involved in making a legal challenge not worth the risk. But we take the risk out of the process by offering a No Win-No Fee policy on all approved cases. That means you don’t need to worry about legal fees until your case is resolved to your satisfaction.

Many legal firms who also offer no win-no fee arrangements will also charge an ‘uplift’ fee or larger percentage of the damages award once the case is successfully resolved. This is considered their ‘reward’ for taking on the burden of risk in your case. We don’t do that at Lifestyle Injury Lawyers – we only charge for the work we do.

‘Our philosophy is that you’re meant to get the compensation, not us, and your compensation claim should not be relegated to an inexperienced lawyer or worse, a paralegal,’ said Mitchell Herlihy, Senior Associate at Lifestyle Injury lawyers.

What our clients say

Google reviews by some clients who’ve engaged Lifestyle Injury Lawyers as their legal representative in recent times reinforce our claims of caring, personalised and expert service.

‘Mitch, Romeo and Taylah are all very professional, down to earth and genuinely great people. It took 2.5 years for the insurance company to settle and I could not have been in better hands. From the very first visit from Mitch right to the end, I was always 100% informed where we were at with my claim and what was coming up in the future.’

‘The work that Mitch, Romeo, Taylah and Jesse have put in to my case has been over and above amazing. For someone who has no idea about the legal world, they simplified everything for me as well as supported me.’

‘Mitchell and his team at Lifestyle Injury Lawyers have been nothing but the absolute best. They are an extremely honest firm that helped to achieve the best possible outcome in my claim. I honestly couldn't be happier with the outcome and the efforts of this team.’
 
‘They made the process extremely simple and straightforward and got everything done in a timely matter. There was no mucking around with them, and they have been a pleasure to work with!
 
‘Extremely professional but with a very personal approach. Open lines of communication were displayed at all times, nothing was ever a drama for them. Phone calls and emails were returned as soon as possible and I always felt assurance and support while I was dealing with an unpleasant event. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lifestyle Injury Lawyers to others.’

‘I was involved in a rather nasty car accident in 2021. From the moment I met Mitchell and Romeo they put me at ease about my situation. They explained to me the process moving forward and what our course of action would be to achieve an outcome. Throughout the process both Mitchell and Romeo maintained good positive communication with me. I can now move on with life that my situation has been resolved.’
