If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, whether you were the driver, a passenger, a pedestrian, a motorcyclist, or a cyclist, you may be entitled to claim compensation for your injuries. The physical, emotional, and financial consequences of a road accident can be overwhelming, especially when medical bills, time off work, or long-term rehabilitation are involved. Fortunately, there is compensation available for people injured in road accidents where another party was at fault.
Even if you were partially responsible for the accident, you may still be eligible for partial compensation. These claims can cover not only your medical expenses, but also lost income, pain and suffering, and future treatment needs. At Peninsula Personal Injury Lawyers, we’re here to help you navigate the claims process from start to finish, taking the pressure off so you can focus on your recovery. We offer clear, honest advice and act on a no-win, no-fee basis, meaning you won’t pay legal fees unless we succeed in securing compensation for you.

Emma and Justin both provided the time and patience necessary to oversee a workers’ compensation claim that was thirteen years past the date of injury. I was originally unaware that I was even entitled to a settlement until they sat me down and clearly explained the situation to me. While Emma and Justin were hard at work on the case, the rest of the team supported me with any queries I had; I was never left wondering about an outcome or a pending situation.
Given how personal this was and how long I had been waiting for this claim to be resolved, I have nothing but respect for the teams at both PPL offices. They made what could have been a very difficult task look easy. I would also like to specifically thank you, Alyza, as well as Tracey and Jamie, for taking care of the extra paperwork and for patiently answering the questions I frequently repeated. I know I wasn’t always an easy client due to my injury and the added stress from the opposition’s insurers, but I am incredibly grateful. I thank the entire team at Peninsula Personal Injury Lawyers with a warm heart and the utmost respect. I would refer any friend or family member to the PPL group without hesitation.
Best regards,
J.Dylan

Many people think hiring a lawyer is expensive and risky, but that’s not the case at Peninsula Personal Injury Lawyers. We work on a No Win, No Fee basis, meaning if your claim is successful, the insurer pays your compensation, most of your legal costs, and any disbursements (such as medical reports and evidence). From your compensation, you’ll only pay the remaining legal costs, capped at 10% or the actual amount, whichever is less. Never more than 10%.
If your claim isn’t successful, you pay no legal fees. You’ll only need to reimburse us for any disbursements we’ve covered on your behalf, and we never ask for money up front. There are no hidden costs; we’re transparent from the start.
(e.g. if your claim came to $50,000 then you would only ever pay a maximum of $5,000 as a contribution to the legal fees)
It costs nothing to talk to us. Don’t be taken advantage of by insurance companies or accept the bare minimum. See how we can help you.
Your initial consultation is totally free, so give us a free call.
“Always in your corner” means acting in your best interest. We give clear, honest and frank advice and will not fill you full of false expectations.
We will give you a break-down of your claim and will recommend a strategic approach that will provide you with the leverage to obtain the best personal and financial outcome. We will only take on your case if we are confident in a successful outcome. PPIL – your committed personal injury lawyers in Mandurah.

Answering a couple of quick questions allows us to maximise the potential of your claim.
If you’re injured in an accident, you should:
1. Collect details of the other driver(s) and any witnesses.
2. Seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
3. Report the accident to the police and the Insurance Commission of WA at www.crashreport.com.au
4. Keep records of your medical treatment, expenses, and lost income.
5. Contact our team for advice on your rights.
It is recommended that your claim is settled when your medical condition has reached maximum medical improvement, or stabilisation, and an assessment of your whole person impairment, your work capacity and future treatment needs has been made.
The right time to settle your claim could be more than 12 months from the date you suffered your injury. You should have all medical and other evidence available prior to settling your claim to maximise your entitlement.
If you think that your employer was at fault in causing your injury, you should not settle your claim until your Whole Person Impairment has been assessed, as you may have a common law claim.
To determine whether the time is right to settle your claim please contact us to arrange an appointment.
When you engage PPIL you won’t pay anything throughout the whole claims process. Once we have settled your claim, we’ll then determine how much our services cost. The majority of our fees will be covered by the insurance company, and we also place a cap on the fees you pay which is based off of your claim.
So, if you do end up having to pay anything, it would only come to a maximum of 10% of your claim.
(e.g. if your claim came to $50,000 then you would only ever pay a maximum of $5,000 as a contribution to the legal fees)
