Legal Frequently Asked Questions

Let us help you get the compensation you deserve!

Looking for answers?

Facing legal questions can be stressful. At Stallion Lawyers, we’ve put together this FAQ to give you clear, straightforward answers about our services, ‘No Win, No Fee’ promises, and what to expect when working with us.

No Win,
No Fee

“No Win, No Fee” Promise

If we agree to take your claim on “No Win, No Fee”, then that is exactly what we mean. We will not charge you unless or until we achieve a settlement. We will never pressure you to sign any Client Agreement until you fully understand the terms of the agreement and we encourage you to ask as many questions as you need to. In fact, we won’t accept any Client Agreement that has been signed in our presence – thereby allowing you the time and space you need to make an informed decision.

No Uplift Fee Promise

It is quite common for personal injury firms to charge an uplift fee on top of their usual professional fees, as compensation for having to wait for payment. Some law firms can charge uplift fees of up to 25%! However, at Stallion Lawyers we promise to never charge such an uplift fee, as we believe that our ordinary professional fees are sufficient and that uplift fees are unnecessary and outdated.

We do not take a percentage of your settlement

Charging legal fees on a percentage basis of the settlement is in fact illegal in Queensland for personal injury lawyers. Therefore, you can be confident that we will never take a set percentage of your settlement – we only charge for work actually performed on your file. There is also a 50/50 rule that ensures that even in smaller settlements, lawyers cannot charge more in fees than what the client ends up with in the hand. We are happy to discuss this in more detail with you as required.

Our Free Coffee Promise

If you are located anywhere from Tweed Heads to North Brisbane we are more than happy to come to you for client meetings, at a place convenient to you (including your home or local café). If we meet at a café we will shout you a coffee at every meeting! For large claims we are also happy to travel to other areas of NSW and QLD, as required.

We will not take on your claim, unless we are confident that we will WIN

Due to our extensive experience running personal injury claims, we are experts at assessing if you have a winning claim. We will therefore give you honest, upfront advice on whether your claim is worthwhile and we will only take on your claim if we believe it is worth both your time and ours. That way it is a Win, Win for everyone!

I cannot recommend Stallion Lawyers highly enough. After being injured in a car accident two years ago, I reached out to Sarah for advice on making a claim when the accident wasn’t our fault. From the very beginning, Sara, along with her paralegal Julia, was incredible. Sarah kept me informed at every stage, explaining the process clearly and supporting me through what was a very challenging time both physically and emotionally. I honestly don’t know how I would have managed without her guidance and care. When it came to settlement, Sarah worked closely with her barrister to achieve the best possible outcome - one that has allowed me to start getting back on my feet after a tough few years. Stallion Lawyers is a boutique firm that genuinely cares about their clients, unlike the big firms that spend millions on advertising but don’t always prioritise your best result. Sarah and Julia do, and it shows in the outcomes they achieve. If I ever found myself in another personal injury situation, my first call would be to Sarah without hesitation. I’ve already recommended Stallion Lawyers to friends and family and will continue to spread the word. They really are exceptional.

Stallion Lawyers were outstanding from start to finish. Communication was clear and consistent, and I always felt looked after throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain everything and made sure I was supported every step of the way. Highly recommend if you want a legal team that genuinely cares.

Hi , I had Stallion Lawyers take my case when i a lady went through a red light and hit me while i was on my Harley i was of work 5 months and Sarah and her team was with me every stop of the way. they were fantastic. I listened to what they said and my wife and i was happy we had them on our side as nothing has ever happened to be in this situation before. I would recommend them 100% they are on your side and want you to get the best deal they can. Thank you, Sarah, for everything Glen.

I engaged Sarah from Stallion Lawyers 18 mths ago in a public liability claim against a council for a fall which resulted in me injuring my ankle. Her diligence in chasing me for invoices on expenses and making sure I followed up on things was excellent. When we went to settlement conference She gave me an expected settlement guideline expecting between x and y. After 3 hrs negotiations the settlement received was higher than the expected figure. Thank you so much Sarah.

What an amazing organisation - Sarah and her team are exactly who you need in your corner when the very worst thing happens. They are caring, compassionate, will come to you if necessary and leave no stone unturned in settling your claim. The tenacity and experience they have when working through all types of claims - but especially Workcover claims is just wonderful. Highly recommend having a chat to them if you need a great personal injury lawyer.
