We fight to get you what’s right

Your costs are covered

If you have a claim, it costs nothing up-front to hire WA Legal.

We work on a no-win, no-fee basis – so there’s no risk to hiring us.

We’ll help maximise your claim; more than what you would typically get self-managing your claim and ensuring that your claim does not get rejected altogther.

You’ll never be out of pocket. Insurance coveres most, if not all, of our legal fees. If for any reason the insurance doesn’t quite cover all of our fees the remaining gets taken out from a small portion of your payout.

Understanding whether you have a claim

If you’ve been injured as a result of a criminal act, you may be entitled to compensation through Western Australia’s criminal injuries compensation scheme.

This can include physical or psychological injuries arising from incidents such as assaults, robberies, or other criminal offences. In many cases, you may still be eligible even if the offender has not been identified or charged.

At WA Legal, we can review your situation and help you understand whether you may have a claim.

Reporting the incident and seeking medical attention

To support a claim, the incident should be reported to police as soon as possible, and medical attention should be sought to document your injuries.

Medical records play an important role in demonstrating the impact the incident has had on your health and wellbeing.

Preparing your application for compensation

Criminal injury claims in Western Australia are made to a government authority, rather than an insurer or the offender directly.

Your application will need to clearly outline what happened, how it affected you, and include supporting evidence such as medical reports and any relevant documentation.

We help ensure your application is complete, accurate and properly supported.

Assessing your claim

The claim is assessed based on the evidence provided, including the nature of the offence, the injuries sustained, and the impact on your life.

Compensation may cover:

  • medical and treatment expenses
  • psychological support
  • loss of income
  • pain and suffering in certain circumstances

Determining the outcome

Once your application has been reviewed, a decision will be made regarding your entitlement to compensation and the amount awarded.

We help you understand the outcome and whether it reflects the impact of the incident.

    You may be entitled by law to compensation

    Whether an injury occurs on the road or in a public place, compensation may be available through insurance.

    Motor vehicle accidents are covered by Western Australia’s compulsory motor injury insurance scheme, while most businesses and public venues carry public liability insurance to protect members of the public.

    If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost income and the impact the injury has had on your life.
    The team at WA Legal can help you understand your rights and guide you through the claims process.

    Protect your claim from being underpaid or rejected

    Simple mistakes in paperwork, medical evidence or reporting can delay or even jeopardise your claim.

    We help you avoid costly mistakes, deal with insurers, and ensure your claim reflects the true impact of your injury so that you can focus on recovery.

    Getting you what’s fair

    Not only do we help you to maximise your workers’ compensation claim, but also ensure that your return to work plan is fair and appropriate for your recover.
