Accredited Specialists

The Law Society of NSW operates the Specialist Accreditation Scheme to help the general public identify solicitors who have demonstrated excellence in a particular area of law.

Only solicitors who fulfil the requirements of the Scheme are entitled to use, after their name, the words ‘Accredited Specialist’ in the nominated area of practice.

Put simply, Accredited Specialists are the bees knees of lawyers.

To become an Accredited Specialist a solicitor must have practised law full-time for
at least five years and worked in their area of legal specialty for at least three years.

Following this, a solicitor must pass the Law Society’s rigorous assessments in
communication, problem solving and client relations in their specialist area of law.

To maintain their status as an Accredited Specialist, a solicitor must annually renew
a certificate to practise the law and membership of the Law Society, plus update his
or her skills and knowledge at the specialist level.

Accredited Specialists know the law inside out. To get the best result in this
difficult and specialised area of law, it’s in your best interests to get
yourself a specialist.

We have won great results for so many clients who came to us from other
solicitors who said they couldn’t help them. Watch some of our client stories to see for yourself.

At Monaco Compensation Lawyers, we aim to achieve the highest professional
standard. So our practice groups are headed by one and in some cases two Accredited
Specialists, whose experience and skill have been recognised by the Law Society of
New South Wales.

This means that your case will be handled by some of Australia’s most
experienced and trained lawyers. See their recent wins
