1. Commercial business and contractual disputes
2. Deceased estate disputes
3. Employment disputes
4. Building disputes
5. Lease disputes
6. Debt collection
Personal Injury Claim
Beck Legal recognises the need for individuals who have suffered an injury to access professional legal advice in a supportive environment. Our Personal Injury team will make every effort to get the results you deserve while minimising any further anguish.
If you have suffered a personal injury, you may be entitled to compensation. To commence a compensation claim, you have to show that your injury occurred as a result of someone else's negligence (fault) although if your injury occurred as a result of a motor vehicle accident or in the course of your employment, you do not even have to establish negligence to be entitled to some compensation.
Beck Legal has a dedicated and experienced personal injury litigation team who will provide you with professional legal advice and act on your behalf.
Expertise includes:
· Public Liability
· Professional Negligence
· Superannuation Claims
Time is Important
There are strict time limitations imposed to commence compensation claims so it is important that you seek our advice as soon as possible after the accident. However even if the accident occurred some years ago, you should still seek our advice as it may still be possible to bring a claim.
Obligation Free Interview
If you think you may have a claim for personal injury, then you have nothing to lose by asking our advice. The first interview is obligation free.
What about the costs?
We will inform you about what the likely legal costs will be so that you can then make an informed decision. In many cases if we do proceed to act on your behalf, we will do so on a no pay unless you win basis. This can be discussed at the first interview.
Our aim is to:-
- Provide you with the best advice.
- Personalised service at every stage of your legal action.
- Make your legal action as less stressful as possible.
- Ensure that your claim is brought to a conclusion as soon as possible with the best possible result.
Public Liability
If you slip or fall in a supermarket, shop, building on any public or private property or suffer a dog bite you may claim for compensation. In any of these cases, it is important that you obtain the right advice as soon as possible after the accident to protect your rights.
If you can show the occupier of the shop or building was negligent (or in the case of dog attacks the owner of the dog) then it is likely that you will have a claim for:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical and hospital expenses
- Loss of income
- Likely future loss of earnings
Medical Negligence
If your doctor or other health professional or the hospital which treated you, have caused you personal or psychiatric injury due to their negligence, then you should obtain our advice about your rights to compensation. Lump sum compensation may not take away the pain, but it may assist your road to recovery by providing you with a better quality of life and give you peace of mind. Such claims may occur due to a misdiagnosis of your illness, inappropriate treatment causing injury/pain, incorrect medical advice, negligence during the course of an operation, or by failure to prescribe appropriate treatment or medication.
