      Claims our Sydney personal injury lawyers can assist with

      Our personal injury lawyers have over 25 years’ experience getting Sydneysiders the compensation they deserve. Here are some of the most common personal injury claims we’ve handled. Depending on your situation, you may qualify for more than one claim.

      Why are we the best Sydney personal injury lawyers?

      In 1999, Leon Monaco opened our first Sydney branch with one clear goal: to make justice accessible to all Australians.

      Now, 25 years and thousands of successful claims later, we’ve expanded to six locations across Sydney and many more nationwide. But one thing hasn’t changed — our dedication to helping Australians secure fast, affordable personal injury compensation.

      As part of this commitment, our Sydney personal injury lawyers will always:

      • Give you expert advice on the value of your claim.
      • Build a strong case with expert-backed evidence.
      • Use our financial strength to stand up to insurance companies.
      • Challenge any evidence presented by the other party.
      • Handle all negotiations on your behalf.
      • Keep you informed every step of the way.
      • Cover all upfront costs under our No Win No Fee guarantee.
      • Fight to maximise your compensation.

      Compensation and personal injury FAQs

      Generally speaking, time limits apply to all personal injury claims in Sydney and broader NSW. The exact limit that applies depends on what type of claim you’re making:

      Car and motor vehicle accident claims

      You’ll need to make your car or motor accident claim within 3 years of the accident date.

      Public liability or medical negligence claims

      Typically, you have to start a public liability or medical negligence claim within 3 years of realising you have a claim.

      Workers compensation claims

      You must start your workers compensation claim within 6 months of the accident.

      TPD claims

      While there are typically no time limits unless your TPD policy states otherwise, we highly recommend filing your claim as soon as possible. Delaying can make it harder to gather the necessary evidence, and based on our experience, super funds are more likely to reject claims that are filed later.

      If you’ve been injured, you might be asking yourself whether you really need a personal injury lawyer or if you can handle the claim on your own. While you can go it alone, having a lawyer on your side can significantly increase your chances of getting the full compensation you deserve. It’s not just about covering medical bills and lost wages — you may also be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering, as well as future expenses.

      The challenge is that insurance companies often offer low settlements, hoping you’ll accept less than your claim is worth. Without an experienced personal injury lawyer fighting for you, it’s easy to settle for less than you deserve.

      Your lawyer handles all aspects of your claim, including gathering evidence, negotiating with insurers, and fighting for you in court if needed.

      The best part? With our No Win No Fee guarantee, there’s no financial risk in hiring a personal injury lawyer. Get in touch today for a free consultation, and let’s discuss how we can secure the compensation you’re entitled to.

      Most personal injury lawyers operate on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis, meaning they cover the upfront costs of your claim and (theoretically) you pay nothing if your claim isn’t successful.

      But here’s the catch: many of these firms end up taking as much as 50% of your compensation. And their No Win No Fee promises aren’t always as straightforward as they sound. If your claim doesn’t succeed, they may only cover their own legal fees, leaving you responsible for extras like gathering evidence and paying court costs.

      At Monaco, we believe this isn’t fair. That’s why our fees are simple and transparent. We charge a maximum of 30% of your total compensation, and in many cases, we recover our fees from the other party — so you get to keep more (or even all) of your compensation.

      You’ll also receive a full cost breakdown from the very beginning, so you’ll know exactly how much you’ll pay if we win your claim.

      And unlike many firms, our No Win No Fee guarantee is exactly what it says. If we don’t win your case, you pay nothing — no extra costs, no exceptions, no fine print. It’s as straightforward as it gets.

      Yes, you have the right to change lawyers in a personal injury case if you’re not happy with your current representation. Whether your lawyer isn’t communicating effectively, isn’t fighting hard enough for your compensation, or you’ve simply lost confidence in them, you can switch lawyers at any stage of your claim.

      If you’re moving your case to Monaco, we’ll take care of everything for you — from notifying your previous lawyer to ensuring a smooth transfer of case files.

      Not sure if switching is the right move? Contact our personal injury lawyers for a free second opinion so you can decide the best path forward.

      Your personal injury compensation may cover:

      • Lost income and superannuation (both past and future).
      • Hospital and medical expenses (both past and future).
      • Professional care.
      • Support from family and friends.
      • Loss of ability to care for a dependent.
      • Pain and suffering (how the injury affects your life).

      The exact amount of compensation you can receive depends on things like how serious your injuries are, what you earned before the injury, and whether you can still work.

      Importantly, personal injury compensation is meant to put you back in the position you’d be in if the injury never happened — but that’s not always straightforward. That’s why you need a lawyer who truly understands your story, the impact of your injury, and has the expertise to make sure your compensation fully reflects your losses.

      For example, if your injuries are minor, you might only get weekly payments for lost income and medical costs. But if your injuries are severe or permanent, you may be entitled to a larger lump sum.

      To learn more about what you could receive, talk to one of our Sydney personal injury lawyers today.

      While the stages of a personal injury claim vary based on the specifics of your case, you’ll likely move through these steps:

      1. Reach out to our Sydney office for your free consultation

      Tell one of our Sydney personal injury lawyers what happened, and they’ll ask the right questions to make sure we fully understand your situation and can provide the best legal advice. The lawyer you speak to will likely be the one to guide your claim all the way to a successful resolution.

      2. Your personal injury lawyer collects information and records

      Your lawyer will gather and review information from your doctors, employer, witnesses, co-workers, and other relevant parties. This helps us get a clear picture of your injury and how it’s affecting your life.

      3. We obtain expert advice to support your claim

      We work with a nationwide network of medical, liability, and other experts to gather the best evidence for your personal injury claim. And if you need to see any of our doctors, we’ll cover the upfront costs of each visit.

      4. The legal process starts

      Once we’ve gathered all the evidence to support your case, we’ll start legal proceedings. This involves the parties negotiating in an out-of-court mediation. The good news is that over 95% of personal injury cases are settled through this process. During mediation, your lawyer will manage all discussions to make sure you get the best possible outcome.

      If your case doesn’t settle, your personal injury lawyer will walk you through your options and discuss the next steps.

      5. You receive compensation and move on with your life

      With our proven track record of success, you can feel confident that you’ll get the payout you deserve. Once your personal injury claim is finalised, you’ll receive your compensation — whether it’s weekly payments or a lump sum.

      How long a personal injury claim takes to settle depends on the complexity of your case and the circumstances surrounding it. Some claims may be resolved in a few months, while others could take longer, especially if you’re trying to sue someone for negligence or your injuries are serious and require ongoing treatment.

      Generally, your claim will need to go through several stages, including gathering evidence, filing your claim, and negotiating with insurance companies.

      At Monaco, we work hard to settle your claim as quickly as possible while ensuring you receive the maximum compensation you deserve. During your free consultation, our personal injury lawyers will listen to your story and provide a clearer estimate of how long your claim may take.

      Monaco helped me get much more compensation than I expected.

      Monaco Lawyers helped me to receive compensation for an ongoing injury I sustained after I was simply driving home from work and was driven into head on by an incompetent and negligent driver who I believe was texting at the time of the accident.

      I am forever thankful! God bless you for being there for me whenever I called.

      Monaco Compensation Lawyers are second to no-one. Anthony and his team were there for me every step of the way. When I got disheartened or down, I would make one phone call to the team at Monaco Solicitors, and they were there for me instantly—reassuring me and consoling me.

      Good result! We had a complicated claim but they got the job done.

      My brothers and I had a complicated claim. I found Ben Ralph to be very helpful, himself and Sally Sutton worked hard for just over a year to get through our claim. They achieved a good result and got the monies paid to myself and my brothers.

      I knew it from the very first phone call: I had found a compassionate law firm.

      Monaco Solicitors, I have no hesitation in recommending Daniella Dababneh and her team. After I suffered a serious workplace accident, I was in need of legal help.

      Monaco is the place to go for a lawyer that cares. You're in safe hands.

      They helped me when I needed it the most. Monaco are very informative and genuinely care about the outcome of your matter. Navigating the CTP, ICP and TPD system can be very overwhelming. They reduce this where every they can.

      They helped me juggle my injury claim and my mum's full-time care.

      I highly recommend Monaco Solicitors. I was claiming PI through my superannuation for workplace injuries. They were doing a no win no fee which was great as I am a carer for my mum and don’t earn much.

      The bill? Surprisingly reasonable, less than expected.

      Sally was very helpful and always kept me up-to-date so if you ever use Monaco Solicitors just make sure you get Sally she’s very good. And the bill was very reasonable I thought it would be higher.

      I'm glad my friend recommended Monaco. I was happy with the result.

      Green Slip Claim: I switched from another Law firm to Monaco on advice from a friend. I am so glad I did, within weeks I was sent off for further scans which led to proof of the pain I was in. All throughout the claim process I was kept up to date. Once settled I was more than happy with the end result. I would definitely recommend Monaco Compensation Lawyers, thanks.

      Monaco's help reduced a 12-month process to just a few months.

      My father originally found Monaco online for super claims,. They had discussed with him in great detail the processes and had been kind and very helpful a few years ago. When needing help with my mothers super claim I knew I could trust Monaco again.
