What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

People bringing superannuation and total and permanent disability claims describe a process handled with patience and clear communication from start to finish. Several reviewers highlight the persistence shown when insurers initially reject a claim, with files kept moving until approval is reached, and negotiation of fair settlements without the need for court attendance. The care shown to clients facing difficult diagnoses or prolonged family matters comes through repeatedly, as does the willingness to explain each step in detail. Named staff including Kyle, Gina, Natasha, Matthew, Joshua Haddon, Jaclyn Edwards, Melinda Abrams, Ross and Marisa are thanked individually for their professionalism, knowledge and responsiveness, and the wider team is praised for returning calls and answering questions promptly.

One thing mentioned again and again is the financial benefit achieved and the confidence clients felt that their interests were being pursued. Reviewers also note the respectful, compassionate manner in which sensitive matters are discussed, and the effort invested in advocacy against large insurers and superannuation funds. The work spans superannuation disputes, disability claims, employment matters, estate litigation, medical negligence and insurance cases, with clients describing steady guidance through stressful periods and outcomes they regarded as strong.

I cannot rate Ross and Marisa highly enough as a team—I simply do not have the words to adequately express my gratitude. They were truly a blessing during an incredibly stressful time in my life. Ross and Marisa demonstrated exceptional knowledge and professionalism in their respective roles as lawyer and senior legal assistant. Throughout the entire process, they were patient, attentive, and genuinely supportive in every interaction. They took the time to guide me through each step, clearly explaining the available options and potential outcomes, while ensuring I felt informed and comfortable enough to ask questions whenever needed. Marisa’s communication was consistently prompt and professional. She was always quick to respond, kept me informed at every stage, and ensured I never felt left wondering what would happen next. What stood out most was the genuine care and compassion they showed throughout the process. They transformed what initially felt like a daunting and overwhelming experience into one that was manageable and easy to understand. I cannot thank them enough for their dedication, expertise, and unwavering support, all of which contributed to achieving a very successful outcome. I will always be grateful for the guidance and assistance they provided during such an important time.

Have been dealing with a family matter for over a year and thanks to Maurice Blackburn especially Gina and Natasha it was all handled really well. The people there are very nice, caring, understanding and patience. There passionate about what they do and represent there cases with the utmost respect while making sure you get the best service a lawyer can offer. I know my review seems over the top but it's real hahaha and the reason for it is because I'm so grateful that when nobody else thought I could do this they did and they helped me. It was a risk for them but in the end a risk worth taking. Thank you all so much for taking time out of your lives to help me continue mine.

Reviewing on behalf of my mother & father inlaw. They contacted Maurice & Blackburn to assist with a work related medical claim (Lung cancer and mesothelioma related to his work on construction sites). Ross and Marissa  were approachable, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain each step of the process. Communication was excellent throughout. We always felt informed and supported, and any questions we had were answered promptly. What stood out most was their genuine care and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for us. We would highly recommend their services to anyone who has worked in a silica/concrete dust environment and developed cancer or mesothelioma.
