Public Liability Accidents
No Win No Fee
Injured in a public place? We’re here to help.
If you’ve been injured in a public or private space due to someone else’s negligence, whether it’s a slip in a supermarket, a fall in a carpark, or an accident at a rental property, you may be entitled to compensation under Queensland’s public liability laws.
At Brandon & Gullo Lawyers, we understand how overwhelming it can be to navigate the legal system while recovering from an injury. That’s why we’re here to guide you through the process with compassion, clarity, and confidence.
How does it work?
Public liability claims fall under the Personal Injuries Proceedings Act 2002 (Qld). These claims are designed to compensate people who are injured due to unsafe conditions or negligent actions in public or private spaces.
You may be able to claim compensation for:
· Medical treatment and rehabilitation
· Pain and suffering
· Loss of income (past and future)
· Care and assistance
· Out of pocket expenses
Common examples of public liability claims:
· Slipping on a wet floor in a shopping centre
· Tripping on uneven pavement or poorly maintained stairs
· Injuries at rental properties due to faulty maintenance
· Accidents at schools, parks, or sporting venues
· Medical negligence
What’s the process?
We’ll walk with you every step of the way. Here’s how it works:
Step One: Free Case Evaluation
We’ll assess your situation and let you know if you have a claim, no cost, no obligation.
Step Two: Notice of Claim
We’ll prepare and serve a formal Notice of Claim on the responsible party or their insurer.
Step Three: Evidence Gathering
We’ll collect medical reports, witness statements, and records to support your claim.
Step Four: Medicolegal Assessment
Independent specialists will assess your injuries and provide expert reports.
Step Five: Settlement Negotiation
We’ll represent you in a compulsory conference with the insurer to negotiate a settlement. Most claims settle at this stage.
Step Six: Court (if needed)
If your claim doesn’t settle, we’ll advise you on the next steps and represent you in court if necessary.
