Oliver, Lump Sum & Allowance Payments

Louise achieved in a short couple of months my lump sum payout and allowance payments - I can't thank her enough as my ACC claim had been under review for two years. I'd still be waiting years for my payment without Louise's help!

Cathie, Home Modifications Claim

It was great having Louise act on my behalf during my recent review case for access to the upper area of my house. She was able to quote case law to give previous examples of judicial verdicts that gave reason for why my case should be accepted by ACC. We got a positive verdict. 

If Your Claim Has Been Denied, Seek Legal Advice

Don't wait, it's important to seek legal advice if your claim has been denied. 
 
Due to the complex nature of most ACC cases, mostly to do with the medical evidence that is required to support your claim, we are always honest and upfront in the initial consultation with you.
