About Fisher Dore Lawyers (Compensation)

Fisher Dore Lawyers (Compensation) is the separate compensation team of Fisher Dore Lawyers. The main practice of this Brisbane law firm is criminal defence. This team runs from the firm’s office at Level 8, 420 George Street, Brisbane. The firm’s main website states that it has practised since 1977. ABN Lookup shows the business name Fisher Dore Lawyers registered since July 2019 to George Street Law Pty Ltd (ABN 53 633 962 795). That company also holds the Fisher Dore Immigration Lawyers name.

Claims and lawyers

The compensation website states that its compensation lawyers practise exclusively in personal injuries law and civil litigation. It has dedicated pages for motor vehicle accident claims and workers’ compensation, including physical injuries, stress and burnout, and bullying and harassment. It also has pages for public liability, medical negligence and total and permanent disability (TPD) claims through superannuation or private insurance.

The team page names Special Counsel Michael Biscak and Associate Ruby Tucker in the compensation team. Meanwhile, the Queensland Law Society register lists twelve solicitors at the Brisbane office. Three of them (Michael Biscak, Ruby Tucker and Matthew McCarthy) list personal injuries law among their areas of practice. Most of the others practise in criminal law.

Offices and fees

The compensation team page refers to offices in Brisbane, Cairns and Mackay, with virtual meetings available elsewhere. However, the firm’s main contact page gives a street address for Mackay but only a post office box for Cairns. In addition, the compensation site’s contact page lists only the Brisbane office.

On fees, the firm says it can act on a no win no fee, hourly rate or fixed fee basis. It states that it does not charge uplift fees or extra ‘care and consideration’ fees. It also does not use litigation lenders. Its article on no win, no fee claims says clients pay no upfront legal fees. It also says they pay no professional fees if the claim is unsuccessful, subject to the terms of the costs agreement. The firm then recovers fees from any settlement or judgment. Finally, it offers a free initial consultation.

Accreditation and Doyle’s Guide
