Garling and Co. are an exceptional outfit. Matthew Garling is a talented lawyer and supported and surrounded by a great team of people including Allison Luck and others. What made Matthew... particularly impressive with my case were his ability to communicate complex legal processes and simplify options for the next steps, his genuine interest in the law, and his passion to seek appropriate compensation on my behalf. He was not ready to settle my case until I was ready to settle the case. I am very grateful to have had Garling and Co. 'in my corner' and would not hesitate to recommend this business to others.read more

I was referred to Garling & Co Lawyers, after previously retaining another law firm who failed to progress my matter for a period verging on three years.This was extremely frustrating and damaging,... causing me a lot of unnecessary stress and unreasonable delays. After my first conference with Matthew, he understood the challenges that I had faced and that I wanted to resolve my matter with the defendant reasonably and in a timely manner.My matter was resolved at mediation and during the process, Matthew and Dallas Morgan (barrister), professionally communicated the procedure to me and they negotiated a reasonable settlement, that I was comfortable in accepting.Thank you to Matthew and Allison for being patient with me during the most challenging time of my life. I can now move on with my life and heal. Had I not retained Garling & Co Lawyers, I highly doubt my matter would ever have been resolved.read more

Frequently Asked Questions

1/ What can I claim for personal injury?

Personal injury settlements often include compensation for:

Medical and care expenses incurred as a result of your injury or illness
Income lost through time off work
Future lost wages
Travel expenses to and from medical appointments
Home care expenses
An amount to cover the pain and suffering you’ve endured

What you can claim and the amount of personal injury compensation you may be eligible for depends on the extent of your injuries. As a general guide, you can claim for any losses you’ve experienced. For serious injuries, you may also be eligible to claim for future losses and your overall pain and suffering.

2/ How does a personal injury claim work?

Personal injury compensation claims are typically paid by an insurer working to reduce your compensation and minimise your claim. Because of this, most people use Accredited Specialists in personal injury law to properly prepare their claim and give themselves the best chance of receiving the compensation they deserve. When you use a personal injury attorney, your personal injury claim will undergo these steps with an insurer:

Your personal injury lawyer will assess your claim, identify the insurer, and provide advice on how to proceed.
Your claim will be submitted to the insurer; evidence and medical reports will also be collected and presented to prove your claim.
If the insurer accepts your claim, they will offer to settle your claim and compensate you. Your personal injury lawyer can tell you if the offer is reasonable or if you’re being unfairly compensated.
If the insurer denies your claim or an agreement can’t be reached, you’ll have the option to take the matter to court.

At Garling & Co, our specialist team of personal injury lawyers help you maximise your compensation on a No Win No Fee policy.

3/ How long does a personal injury claim take to settle?

Most personal injury compensation claims in NSW take between 9-18 months to settle; however, it can take longer, depending on your claim.

The amount of time it takes to settle depends on:

The amount of time needed for necessary medical assessments
Whether the insurer accepts liability for your injuries or illness
If an agreed settlement with the insurer is reached quickly (if an agreement can’t be reached, claims can take longer than 18 months to settle)
