No Win, No Fee - Personal Injury Lawyers

If you don’t win, we won’t charge you anything for our work — that is the basis of our law firm.

If you do win, under Australian law, we can’t charge you a percentage of the settlement. We can only charge you by the hour for our time. However, we can give you an estimate as a percentage of the settlement you receive. The bigger the case, the smaller the percentage of your payout our fees will represent.

We are built to serve our community. Our policies are clearly laid out, and we will go over all of the details, any questions and concerns you may have right away before signing any paperwork or moving forward.

Compensation fees vary across Australia, but generally, how we can charge for our time is highly regulated. A more in-depth breakdown of the costs you can expect can be found in our guide to legal costs for a compensation claim. This page will explain the terminology you may encounter as you look over our fee agreement, and case-specific details you should be aware of.
There are two main costs that are usually associated with compensation claims through Gerard Malouf & Partners:

• Disbursements: This includes gathering information such as medical records, administrative expenses, inspections and court fees — the typical fees it takes to uncover the details to build your case.
• Professional fees: This is the cost of our time and professional effort for you.
  Many of these fees could even be paid for you by the defendant in court known as party costs. Party costs occur when the losing party must pay the legal costs. These costs are generally less than the legal/solicitor costs.

What happens if I’m unhappy about the service?

In thousands of matters, we have only encountered a handful of complaints about our fees – less than 0.1% of all cases. We state in our fee policy in our costs agreement that we will reduce our fee arrangement if you are unhappy and there is a reasonable basis.
