Our client, her partner and their 4 year old son had been planning their wedding and looked forward to sharing their future together. Before there was a chance to propose, our client's partner died after he was incorrectly discharged from a major hospital emergency department. The hospital discharged our client after his first visit to a junior doctor failed to recognise signs of a urinary tract infection.

Success story 6
We had a recent bullying case which involved a child who was at a junior school and then a high school in the Penrith area. Our client sustained significant psychological trauma and he eventually had to leave his high school because of bullying. What is of significance, is that the bullying was reported by his parents on numerous occasions and staff at both our client’s junior school and high school did not take preventative steps with respect to the particular bullies involved. At the recent District Court settlement of this matter, the Department of Education settled on an award in excess of $320,000.00 and our client will get the benefit of this on his 18th birthday (he is only 16 now).Our client and his parents were delighted with the result.
