At Lopes Legal, we specialise in representing clients who have been injured due to the negligence or misconduct of others. We understand the profound impact injuries can have on your life, and we are here to help you secure the compensation you deserve. Below are the main areas we handle, along with examples and explanations of how we assist:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
If you’ve been injured in a car, motorcycle, or truck accident, we help you navigate the complex claims process to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. This includes cases involving rear-end collisions, hit-and-run incidents, and accidents caused by distracted or drunk driving.
Bike Accidents
Cyclists are particularly vulnerable on the road. We assist clients who have suffered injuries due to negligent drivers, unsafe road conditions, or collisions with vehicles.
Truck Accidents
Truck accidents can lead to severe injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. We handle claims involving truck driver negligence, mechanical failures, and overloaded cargo.
Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians injured in crosswalks or on footpaths by reckless or inattentive drivers deserve justice. We can help secure compensation for medical bills, rehabilitation, and other damages.
Workers’ Compensation Accidents
If you’ve been injured on the job, we help you navigate the workers’ compensation process to secure medical coverage, wage replacement, and lump-sum settlements if applicable. This includes injuries on construction sites, warehouses, and factories.
Bullying and Harassment Claims Against Employers
Workplace bullying and harassment can lead to serious mental health issues. We support employees in filing claims for compensation and holding employers accountable for unsafe work environments.
Construction Site Accidents
Construction sites can be hazardous, with risks including falls from heights, equipment malfunctions, and unsafe practices. We assist injured workers in obtaining compensation and ensuring employers meet safety obligations.
Slip and Falls
Whether it occurs in a supermarket, public area, or private property, slip-and-fall injuries can result from negligence. We help prove liability and secure compensation for your recovery.
Dog Bite Cases
Dog owners are responsible for their pets. If you’ve been attacked by a dog, we assist in holding the owner accountable and recovering compensation for medical bills, scarring, and emotional trauma.
Medical Negligence Cases
If a healthcare provider’s error or omission caused you harm, we can help you file a claim for medical negligence. This includes cases involving surgical errors, misdiagnoses, or substandard care.
Historical Abuse Cases
We provide compassionate legal representation for survivors of physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, helping them seek justice and acknowledgment for the harm they’ve suffered.
Public Liability Claims
Injuries occurring in public spaces, such as parks, shopping centres, or playgrounds, often fall under public liability. We work to hold the responsible parties accountable.
Defective Products Claims
If you’ve been injured by a faulty product, we assist in pursuing claims against manufacturers and distributors for product liability.
