Some law firms will utilise a mixture of both new lawyers and more experienced lawyers. By doing this you can reduce your costs and ensure that your matter is dealt with by the most appropriate and cost effective lawyer for the specific task at hand. If you are unsure about the fees that you may incur then ask the lawyer for an estimate of costs. You may find that you can limit your fees by assisting with your matter yourself. Remember the more work you do, the less your family lawyer will have to do, the cheaper your matter becomes.
Perhaps the most significant amendment is the introduction of a threshold on common law claims for damages. For any worker injured on or after 15 October 2013, in order to be entitled to commence a common law claim against a negligent employer, the worker’s injury must have sustained an injury resulting in a degree of permanent impairment of more than 5%. A part time clerical worker sustains an injury to their leg, resulting in degree of permanent impairment of 6%. The injury has little impact on the worker’s ability to work. The clerical worker is entitled to bring a common law claim for damages against their employer.
