A law firm standing up for injured Victorians.

Local roots, statewide reach
Our practice grew up in south-west Victoria and we’re proudly still based in Warrnambool. Our office is one of Liebig Street’s landmarks — the old Warrnambool Building Society building, its facade still carrying the society’s “Estd 1869” crest. It’s a fitting home for a firm that values being part of the community it serves.
You don’t need to live nearby to work with us, though. We represent injured workers, road users and people hurt through someone else’s negligence all over Victoria, and we can meet you in Warrnambool, by appointment in Melbourne, over the phone or by video call.
Every matter is overseen by our principal lawyers, Michael and Peter. You’ll deal with people who know your file — not a call centre. Meet Michael and Peter →
