Types of Insurance Claims

At McMahon Lawyers, our insurance lawyers have an in-depth understanding of their client’s cases and provide strategic advice that satisfies their client’s goals and demands, with particular expertise in claims management.

Examples of insurance claims that our team can handle include:

Home Insurance Claims

This is an insurance claim filed by residential property owners when their homes sustain damages from storms, flooding, and fires. Home insurance policies have a liability limit that details how much coverage the insured has in instances of unforeseen events. At our firm, our legal professionals assist their clients in identifying how much they should be compensated for damage sustained to their property, often working with claims management agencies to ensure a swift and effective resolution.

Health Insurance

Health insurance policies provide cover for medical costs and healthcare services. The insured needs to read the terms and conditions set-out in the policy to ascertain whether it provides adequate coverage for their needs. We’ll do everything we can to help our clients when their claims are denied, or their coverage is ended, leveraging our extensive experience in managing both litigated and non-litigated claims.

Vehicle Insurance

In Australia, registering a car requires having mandatory third-party insurance. Yet, many kinds of auto insurance exist depending on the driver’s requirements. Our insurance law team can provide legal advice when disputes arise about vehicle accidents or insurance law and the next steps the insured should take. We have significant experience in handling personal injury claims related to vehicle accidents, ensuring clients receive the compensation they deserve.

Alternative Dispute Resolution for Commercial Disputes

Our commercial litigators in Sydney are adept at alternative dispute resolution (ADR). We commonly resolve complex commercial disputes through careful negotiation with all parties involved. Our commercial lawyers routinely solve legal disputes through ADR, allowing our clients to enjoy peace of mind that the commercial dispute has been resolved without the stress, expense, and negative press associated with going to court.

Why Choose Our Sydney Insurance Lawyers?

insurance-law-discus

You Are Our Top Priority

Because we are a small team, we seldom have the conflict of interest issues that often arise in larger firms offering insurance law services and advice. If you value honesty and transparency, our solicitors are here to help.

Streamlined and Cost-Effective Solutions

Litigation can be a costly and time-consuming exercise for insurers and claimants. We aim to resolve claims disputes before litigation, if possible, via the internal review systems of insurers and through professional negotiation. Our specialist solicitors are here to provide legal advice and support so you can make informed decisions that suit your situation.

Where such a resolution is not possible, our solicitors aggressively pursue our client’s rights and entitlements in court, often against larger firms. Additionally, our firm has extensive experience in handling professional indemnity cases, adopting a strategic approach to defend and represent our clients effectively in these complex disputes.

Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with small claims but are happy to refer enquirers to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority or to other firms.

How Can We Help?

Compassion & Support

Our firm is adept at handling insurance dispute cases, ensuring clients receive the support they need during these challenging times.

Regarding insurance issues, every situation is different, and documents require careful reading.

Policyholders must analyse their policies thoroughly and, if necessary, get advice from an expert insurance lawyer when navigating insurance disputes.

Finding the Right Legal Option for You

To get the full and just compensation they are entitled to, policyholders can work with an insurance lawyer to understand their legal options, negotiate with the insurance provider, and, if necessary, file a lawsuit. Our legal services include strategic advice and support through the dispute resolution process, ensuring clients have the best chance of success without the financial risk of a ‘no win, no fee’ arrangement.

In declined claims, an insurance lawyer helps the insured client determine whether the insurance company has declined their claim without a reasonable basis. Our insurance lawyer or attorney will help the client obtain a fair settlement or coverage.

We’ll assist an insurer by providing guidance on managing risk to avoid potential conflicts with policyholders. We can assist in drafting insurance policies, reviewing the claims procedure, and advising on compliance with Australian insurance laws and regulations.
