When you visit your GP with a challenging medical condition, your doctor refers you to a specialist. This is similar to selecting a personal injury specialist for your compensation claim. Kerry Splatt, a Queensland Accredited Specialist in Personal Injury Law, leads our lawyers and solicitors.
Choosing an Accredited Specialist to advise on your legal case means working with a lawyer recognised by The Queensland Law Society as knowing personal injury litigation. Contact us now for your free comprehensive case review.
We know that earning an income can be a struggle when you are physically or psychologically injured. You likely can’t afford the fees associated with personal injury litigation, but you need a compensation payout to pay the bills. So Splatt Lawyers will fund your case until you settle. At this time, we will recover our costs.
Our 100% No Win, No Fee legal funding means you will never be out of pocket during the life of your matter. We will pay for your medical assessments and reports required as evidence and fund your rehabilitation costs. If we lose your case, you will owe us nothing. Splatt Lawyers carries 100% of the risk of your legal matter.
When seeking advice from a Queensland compensation law firm, you could feel stressed or anxious about the size of your legal bill. It would help if you had legal expertise to achieve justice, but the time of a good lawyer is not cheap. So it’s pleasing to know that Splatt Lawyers has a pricing cap on all legal services.
In Queensland, Section 347 of the Legal Profession Act stipulates how accident lawyers can charge you for their services. The maximum they can bill is 50% of your net settlement payout. This cap does not mean you will be charged half of your payout for managing your claim; it simply means no law firm can exceed 50% billing.
Furthermore, Splatt Lawyers uses independently audited time billing. Which means you are charged for the hours of work it takes to achieve an outcome. Simple matters with clear liability require less work, so your bill would be lower. Complex cases take more time but often lead to a more substantial outcome.
NOTE—Unlike other law firms, we do not charge an additional fee (sometimes known as an uplift fee) when we win your case.
Most people only have one negligence claim in their lifetime and will often choose a No Win, No Fee lawyer to manage their case. Considering how you will be charged and who checks my bill for accuracy is natural.
Most Queensland compensation law firms use timed billing, which means your legal team will charge you by the hour for work on your matter; they should not be charging a percentage of your payout. At the same time, some law firms might use questionable billing procedures.
Thankfully, an external legal costing firm reviews all Splatt Lawyer’s legal files. They’re responsible for examining how we bill every legal file so our fees are open and honest. We’re committed to fair treatment for all our Queensland clients.
