Our Geelong lawyers have decades of experience across all areas of the law. Whatever your legal needs are, we approach every case with understanding and compassion.
If you are injured, have suffered an unexpected life evet such as divorce, a disputed estate or the wrong doing of another person, or if you find yourself having been defamed, or in a commercial dispute, we can help.
When you’re faced with tough circumstances, let us lighten your load by taking care of the legal side of things.
The law can feel like an impersonal and complex machine when your life is suddenly and unexpectedly affected by it. It is completely natural to feel worried about how to proceed with a legal matter, and to feel concerned about or overwhelmed by the possible outcomes if you’re unfamiliar with your personal rights and entitlements. That’s why our Geelong lawyers are here to help.
We will help you to navigate the intricacies of specialist areas including asbestos law, accident law, WorkCover, motor vehicle or car accident law and the law that applies to accidents in public places. We can also provide you with highly experienced and skilled personal injury lawyers.
The Gordon Legal team of Geelong lawyers are also specialists in personal injury claims. If you have experienced an injury or emotional distress as the result of a motor vehicle accident, a workplace accident, or the negligence of another person or organisation, then you should always seek legal advice. Understanding your rights and entitlements can open up opportunities to claim for the compensation you that you deserve to help you in supporting your recovery and reclaiming your life.
Life events like divorce, the death of a loved one and the legal complexities of handling their estate, as well as dispute resolution, whether personal or professional, can all take a serious toll and disrupt your life in not just big ways, but in smaller ones that you’re not always immediately aware of. When you are unsure of how to proceed legally, you can inadvertently make mistakes or miss opportunities to more quickly resolve your circumstances and achieve the best outcomes.
Our Geelong lawyers start work immediately toward achieving a thorough understanding of your individual circumstances and the fastest, most efficient method of winning the best possible outcome. We’re here to help you understand all of your rights and entitlements and to represent your best interests.
People often find themselves in need of legal advice when they are involved in an accident or accident which causes them personal injury. Many will seek first the help and support of their closest friends and family members and that support will usually be well-intentioned and kind-hearted but is not always a thorough understanding of the situation and all possible outcomes. Our Geelong lawyers can help you to understand a more complete picture of your circumstances and how you deserve to be treated under the law.
Our Geelong lawyers are here to ensure that you receive what is fair. If you are in need of legal help, contact our friendly and helpful team on 03 5202 2729. We offer honest, straight-forward advice at no obligation to you and we always put our clients first.
