What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Personal injury claims and the compensation process that follows form the core of the work described in feedback, with reviewers repeatedly noting the steady guidance provided through what is often a drawn-out and stressful experience. Clients mention being kept informed at each stage of their claim, receiving clear explanations of progress and honest expectations rather than inflated promises.

Leah Harms and Sarah Singh are singled out for their knowledge, compassion and responsiveness from the first meeting onwards, and the supportive manner in which clients are treated emerges as a recurring theme. One account describes a rejected work injury claim being taken on and prepared for review with diligence and care, while others refer to settlements and assistance with workplace injuries. The professionalism and approachability of the team come up often, as does the sense of being comfortable and updated throughout proceedings.

Patience when matters run over an extended period is noted, along with communication before and after key milestones. The Townsville office is described as accommodating, with appreciation expressed for the effort put into achieving outcomes for those who had been unsure where to turn. Expertise in injury matters delivered with genuine concern for the individual is the thread running through the feedback.

Seeking fair compensation for injury's sustained at work is a process that drags on over a period of years. Its hard to remain focused and positive. Slater and Gordon are there to guide and support you every step of the way. They don't build up your expectations and instead do there best to keep you calm and on track.

Slater & Gordon Townsville Office. We had a claim rejected in September for a work injury. Not knowing what options were available to us we contacted Slater & Gordon Townsville and had an appraisal meeting with Sarah Singh who from the first contact she has treated us with utmost compassion & concern. From that moment Sarah has worked tirelessly preparing our case for a review which has been accepted, All we can say without Sarah at Slater & Gordon standing in our corner directing us in an area that was foreign to us, we would never achieved the result we are working on positively today. Thank you sincerely. AidanR

I can't speak highly enough of Leah Harms. From our first meeting I felt confident that Leah would do all that she could to assist me with my claim. Leah kept me abreast of all aspects of my claim. A very professional and likeable person a credit to Slater and Gordon. How lucky are we in Townsville to have such a talented young lady? Greg Deveney

Slater and Gordon Townsville are amazing. From the very first meeting until the very last meeting, I was always made to feel like I was so much more than just a client. At any stage if I was feeling in the least bit apprehensive, I would contact Sarah Singh with my concerns, and she always responded promptly and put my concerns to rest. Although I would not wish for anyone to require a Personal Injury Lawyer, if the need arises do not look beyond Slater and Gordon.
