Gouldson Legal was a company I never expected to be in need of. Faran Gouldson, Heather and Ellie who we dealt with were exceptionally caring, supportive and professional right through the entire process. Their communication was excellent and they always made time available to talk to and discuss anything and everything. Faran made an incredibly difficult time more manageable. Highly recommend! Thank you again Faran and team for all you did for us.

I’ve just successfully been through the legal process against the hospital that sent me to a Care Home instead of carrying out the procedures recommended by the Neurosurgical Specialist. A long process but with my Solicitor at Gouldsons followed up all areas of my treatment — I had initially received all my notes under FOI and felt I had a case. I was kept in the loop throughout the process and am happy with the result. I can now get on with my life so thank you.

We started out negotiating directly with the CTP insurer concerned, after all their promises of a appointed claims manager to provide advice in our best interest we found that they were paraphrasing clauses within the act to reduce their claim lability. As a result we sought legal advice. We chose Gouldson Legal as they were less hi pressure with their advertising than some of the ambulance chasing companies and also offered a claim fee cap. From the outset we found Gouldson Legal totally professional and understanding of our situation. Through our claim process we were continually informed via phone and or Email of every eventuality, plus their advice on the procedures that the claim would go through and the amounts that we could expect to receive. The end result of our claim ended at 2.5 times the best offer that was made from our dealing directly with the CTP Insurer. The CTP Insurers want everyone to deal directly with them for one reason only, it will reduce their payout. From our experience you will need legal assistance and advice and as such we can only recommend Gouldson Legal. Judy and Peter

What a great team I had with Kaine Shanahan and Alicia Walker! Kaine ran my MVA claim for me with his paralegal Alicia. They have both been in the game for a very long time and know their stuff! And it shows! They kept in touch and kept me abreast of everything! Kaine is very down to earth which makes this whole process a lot easier! Alicia is a very experienced paralegal who is always on top of everything and who I know works tirelessly in the background. What a golden team! John Harvey later took over my file - he also knows his stuff as also been in the game a long time and he was super efficient in bringing my claim to a speedy conclusion for a great result! Thank you John!! Thank you Kaine, Alicia and John for your amazing professionalism and great work on my claim. I would recommend you all always. Ps - Trish is a delight who always has a smile as big as the sun!

Frequently Asked Questions

A personal injury claim is a claim for compensation after an individual has suffered injury (either physical, emotional, or mental) because of another person’s negligence.

Unsure if you are eligible for compensation? Our personal injury claim lawyers will review your case for free.

At Gouldson Legal, every client is entitled to a free case review. Simply call our office or complete the online form to speak with our personal injury lawyers. Brisbane clients are welcome to meet at our offices in Brisbane CBD.

One of our personal injury claims lawyers will meet with you to discuss the situation and take you through the claims process, step by step.

We begin the process for personal injury claims by taking the time to understand your situation. Then, while you focus on your recovery, our team will focus on your needs and obtaining the best possible outcome for your situation.

Lawyers at Gouldson Legal should be contacted as soon as practicable. In Queensland, strict time limits apply to personal injury claims.

Regardless of the circumstances in which you have sustained a personal injury, claim lawyers will advise that pre-court proceedings must begin within 9 months of your injury (numerous dates and time frames will generally apply).

Ultimately, you must commence personal injury proceedings in a Court within 3 years from the date of your injury*, or your right to claim may be lost.

* This limitation is different for children under the age of 18. It’s important to contact your personal injury claim lawyer for advice as soon as possible.

We understand that a personal injury can severely impact your wellbeing, your family, and your ability to earn an income.

Our personal injury claims lawyers will calculate your entitlements based on updated information and medical evidence. Depending on your situation, you may be eligible to seek compensation for:

  • Treatment and rehabilitation costs.
    This may include physiotherapy and pharmaceutical costs. Our team can help with organising this to ensure you aren’t out-of-pocket during the claims process.
  • Past and future loss of income and superannuation.
    If you have been unable to work due to personal injury, and/or your injury will impact your ability to work in the future, this will be included in your personal injury claim.
  • Impacts on quality of life, including pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment.
    For any personal injury, compensation lawyers at Gouldson Legal will assess any sustained psychological injuries, mental distress, or physical pain in the claims process.

To fully understand what compensation you may be entitled to, contact one of our personal injury claims lawyers for a free, confidential chat.

With our team of expert accident claim lawyers, based in Brisbane, Queensland clients count on Gouldson Legal to resolve claims as efficiently as possible. However, it’s important to remember that every claim is as individual as the person making it.

When it comes to your personal injury claim, lawyers will advise that numerous variables can shorten or prolong the time it takes for decisions to be made or the claim to be finalised. To speed up the process, ensure you lodge a claim as soon as possible and keep accurate and detailed records at hand.

For a full breakdown, contact Gouldson Legal’s team of personal injury claim lawyers.

Queensland residents who sustain a personal injury (whether in a motor vehicle accident, at work, by reason of a doctor’s treatment, or otherwise due to another person’s negligence) have a right to commence a claim for compensation from the negligent person via their insurance.

Your personal injury claim lawyers may advise you regarding:

  • CTP insurance, which indemnifies vehicle owners and drivers who are deemed to be the driver at fault in an accident and caused personal injury to another party.
  • The workers’ compensation scheme, which provides a compulsory scheme of insurance for all workers in Queensland.
  • The Personal Injuries Proceedings Act, which provides the framework for compensation in a number of other circumstances.

Every homeowner’s insurance policy provides a level of public liability insurance. Personal injury coverage will cover any injury someone may suffer while attending on your property.

Our personal injury lawyers (Brisbane & surrounds) will assess your unique situation and provide advice. If you receive a lump sum compensation for personal injury, you may not be eligible for social security or family assistance payments for a period of time. This is known as a lump sum preclusion period.

In Queensland, personal injury compensation lawyers don’t come more dedicated than Gouldson Legal. Each and every case is reviewed by a team of fully qualified lawyers–including the company Director–to ensure it is considered from all angles.

At Gouldson Legal, three simple principles guide everything we do:

We don’t represent cases. We represent people.
We keep in contact. You’ll never be left in the dark.
We work harder and smarter to get the best result for you. Not us. You.
