ABOUT US
We help Queenslanders get back up!
The back story
Compensation law is a contact sport—good lawyers for you versus insurer lawyers dead-set on paying nothing or as little as possible.
So, what happens when lawyers that once worked for the insurance company start working for you instead?
Picture the half-back and five-eighth of the Brisbane Broncos defecting mid-season to the opposition. Suddenly the playbook, the signals, the tricks— all yours.
That’s exactly how accident legal was born. Partners Matthew Baker and Pat O’Shea spent over 40+ years collectively on the insurer’s side perfecting every defence tactic. A decade ago they decided to champion injured Queenslanders—and trained our team in every single insurer playbook. Result: one of the state’s most feared compensation outfits, fighting for the people who need it most.
Our point of difference
01
We reject the status quo
Insurance giants bank on fatigue and confusion. Most compensation law firms respond with conveyor-belt claims and radio silence. We refuse.
02
We remove every financial barrier
No Win—No Fee
No Disbursement Loan Promise – we front every cost, charge zero interest, and recoup only when the insurer pays. More settlement money stays with you.
03
We champion everyday Queenslanders
You’re not a file number—you’re a mate, a neighbour, a Dad or Mum, a Son or Daughter. Your fight is personal, so we bring it home: to your lounge room, your kitchen table, your hospital ward, your late-night phone call.
04
We put expertise on the frontline
A senior lawyer, armed with the tools and tactics of insurance companies, runs your case from first call to final cheque. No hand-offs. No rookies.
05
We answer – always
24/7 direct line. Call at 2 a.m.; speak to a lawyer, not voicemail. All messages returned within 24 hours.
06
We custom build every strategy
No templates—just tailored, forensic claims that reflect the real cost of your injuries and future.
07
We accelerate your recovery
We work with your doctors to secure insurer-funded treatment early, so you heal while we battle.
08
We measure success by your outcome
If it doesn’t put more security, dignity and dollars in your pocket, we rethink it—fast.
09
Our pledge
Armed with insider intel and outsider resolve, we will out-prepare, out-persist and out-care every opponent in your path. Until your life is back on track, we’re not done. You can guarantee better days ahead!
