This is a cause that means a great deal to us, and weโ€™re proud to support an organisation working to improve maternity care and make a meaningful difference for mothers, babies and families across our community.

The 10 Years Strong celebration was a wonderful opportunity to recognise the people, passion and dedication behind Better Births Illawarra and the positive impact they have made over the past decade.

Weโ€™re proud to stand alongside such an important community initiative and look forward to supporting its continued work for years to come.

After an accident, important evidence can disappear quickly. Without photographs, witness details, or notes about what happened, it may become more difficult to establish how the accident occurred.

Failing to document the scene can mean:

๐Ÿ“ธ Less evidence โ€“ hazards, damage, and conditions may change or disappear.
๐Ÿ‘ฅ Lost witness information โ€“ people may leave before their details are collected.
๐Ÿ“ Unclear details โ€“ memories can fade or differ over time.
โš–๏ธ A more difficult claim โ€“ insurers may challenge what happened or who was responsible.

If it's safe to do so, take photos and videos, record relevant details, and collect witness information as soon as possible.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we help injured people understand what evidence may be important to their claim and how to protect their rights.

Consistent medical treatment and accurate records can play an important role in a personal injury claim.

Significant gaps in treatment or inconsistencies in your medical records may give insurers grounds to question the severity of your injuries, whether they were caused by the accident, or whether ongoing treatment is necessary.

To help protect your claim:

๐Ÿฉบ Follow your treating doctor's advice
๐Ÿ“… Attend scheduled appointments
๐Ÿ“‹ Keep your medical records and treatment documents
๐Ÿ’ฌ Tell your doctor about ongoing symptoms and changes in your condition

If you have missed appointments or have gaps in your treatment, don't assume your claim is automatically lost. Your circumstances should be assessed individually.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we help clients understand how their medical evidence may affect their claim and what steps they can take to protect their rights.

03/09/2026

After an injury, receiving an early settlement offer can feel like a quick way to move forward. But accepting too soon may mean your future losses and the full impact of your injury haven't been properly considered.

Your claim may involve more than immediate medical expenses. It can also include factors such as:

โ€ข Ongoing treatment and rehabilitation
โ€ข Loss of income and future earning capacity
โ€ข The impact of your injury on your everyday life
โ€ข Future medical needs and related expenses

Once a settlement is accepted, you may not be able to seek further compensation for the same injury.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we help clients understand their options and assess whether a proposed settlement properly reflects their circumstances. Before accepting an early offer, seek legal advice to understand what your claim may be worth.

Not every accident results in a personal injury claim. Generally, negligence involves establishing four key elements:

๐ƒ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฒ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐‚๐š๐ซ๐ž. The other party owed you a legal duty to take reasonable care.

๐๐ซ๐ž๐š๐œ๐ก ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ƒ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฒ. They failed to meet the required standard of care.

๐‚๐š๐ฎ๐ฌ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. That breach caused or materially contributed to your injury.

๐ƒ๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ ๐ž. You suffered actual injury, loss, or damage as a result.

The evidence required will depend on the circumstances of each case.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we assess the facts and evidence of your matter to help determine whether you may have a claim.

If youโ€™ve been injured due to someone elseโ€™s negligence, seek legal advice to understand your rights and options.

Many people hesitate to make a personal injury claim because they assume it automatically means going to court.

In reality, many personal injury matters are resolved through negotiation and settlement without the need for a trial.

Your lawyer may negotiate with the insurer or other party to reach a fair outcome while protecting your interests throughout the process.

Every case is different, and court proceedings may still be necessary if a fair settlement cannot be reached.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we work to resolve claims efficiently while ensuring your rights and interests remain protected. If you're unsure about the personal injury claims process, seek legal advice to understand your options.

After an accident, you may be asked to sign documents by an insurer or another party. Before signing anything, it's important to understand exactly what you're agreeing to.

Some documents may affect your legal rights or your ability to pursue the full compensation you may be entitled to.

Before you:
โœ” Accept a settlement offer
โœ” Sign a release or agreement
โœ” Complete insurer paperwork

Seek legal advice to ensure your interests are protected.

At Melinda Griffiths Lawyers, we help clients review documents, understand their options, and make informed decisions before signing.
