Bell Lawyers Compensation Lawyers in Western Sydney.
Bell Lawyers are expert compensation lawyers in Sydney who are located in Penrith in the Western Region of Sydney and service the areas of Penrith, Wollongong, Campbelltown, Ingleburn, Richmond, Windsor, Lithgow and the Blue Mountains.
Our Law Society accredited specialist solicitors will get you the best results possible if you are seeking compensation for an injury sustained from a slip and fall on private or public property or through someone else’s negligence or for workers compensation.
Bell Lawyers will be there to help and support you through this most distressing time and can provide expert advice on medical negligence, professional negligence, public liability, product liability and motor vehicle accident claims.
Their expertise extends to claims by victims of child abuse or sexual assault and they can represent you if you have been defamed.
If you have suffered an injury, the law gives you a limited period within which to make a claim so the sooner you consult with experts like the solicitors at Bell Lawyers, the better!
It is extremely important that your lawyer has the best opportunity to gather evidence on your behalf so any delay may prejudice your ability to prove your case.
Actually knowing the correct information to supply and how to document it can be a very daunting task best left to the experts. Whether or not you decide to run your case, you must find out as soon as possible what is involved in discharging the onus of proof.
Most people are concerned about the cost of litigation. Bell Lawyers offer you the surety of a “No Win, No Fee” guarantee.
[No Win No Fee does not apply to Workers Compensation matters. There is no entitlement to charge clients legal fees or disbursements in Workers Compensation matters as these are paid (where a grant is made) by WIRO (Workers Compensation Independent Review Office) through ILARS service (Independent Legal Assistance and Review Service)].
People often put off claiming accident insurance/compensation because they are afraid of going to court but in 90% of cases, workers compensation claims are actually settled out of court!
Some people fear their employer will treat them differently once they go back to work or do not wish to be a financial burden on their employers if they work for a small company.
What you have to remember is that the insurance company pays the compensation not the individual employer.
While it is illegal for any employer to treat an employee with contempt in these circumstances, this is less likely to happen further compounding your stress and grief if you let your lawyer handle your case.
If you have any type of claim involving injury from workers compensation and accident insurance, Bell Lawyers professional team will help take the pain away from claiming. You can call us on 1300 765 424 or contact us via this website.

The following are just a few examples of the many areas of crime we advise on:
If you have been caught drinking and driving, Bell Lawyers are the drink driving experts in the Western Region of Sydney servicing the areas of Penrith, Wollongong, Campbelltown, Ingleburn, Richmond, Windsor, Lithgow and the Blue Mountains.
Drink driving in New South Wales can have a serious impact on your life and penalties for DUI (driving under the influence) can prejudice your employment if the outcome of the charge is disqualification from driving. The law on drink driving in NSW makes it an offence for a person with a prescribed blood alcohol concentration (PCA) to drive, attempt to drive or occupy the seat next to the holder of a learner licence who is driving a vehicle. If you have been charged with drink driving, you will fall into one of the following categories for PCA/DUI offences:
These categories carry penalties, automatic disqualification periods and for certain mid and high range PCA offences may mean 9 to 24 months in prison. Bell Lawyers Drink Driving Experts know sentencing trends around gender, age, prior criminal record and pleas and can offer legal representation to get the best possible outcome for you given the nature of the charge.
Binge drinking has placed a spotlight on teenage drink driving with the media constantly reporting on the appropriateness of penalties for DUI for drinking driving offences by young people. If you have been charged with teenage drink driving, your future is best left in the hands of Bell Lawyers who are specialist drink driving lawyers with a proven track record of defending teenage drink driving defendants and giving them the best chance of protecting their driving record.
So if you have been busted by the booze bus for drink driving in NSW or have lost your licence and need to speak with a friendly professional, call Bell Lawyers Drink Driving Experts for cost effective advice or representation. You can call Bell Lawyers on 1300 765 424 or contact us via this website.
If you are buying or selling a house, unit or land, you will need conveyancing carried out. Conveyancing generally means the work involved in the legal transfer of property from one party to another.
Conveyancing is quite technical and involves certain legal steps, so legal advice is essential. Don’t risk doing your own conveyancing. If something goes wrong, you may be legally and financially liable for any potential disputes.
Employment law is about the relationship you have with your employer. It is often referred to as Industrial Law or Workplace Relations Law – while there may be subtle differences in the terminology, the central concept is always that same. It’s all about your rights and obligations at work, and about how your employer should be treating you.
The information on this page is provided by Bell Lawyers, a firm that has provided quality legal services to the people of Western Sydney for over 20 years. At Bell Lawyers, we pride ourselves on our integrity and professionalism. We manage all of our client enquiries courteously and promptly.

Let’s review some of the most common issues arising in Employment Law.
Family law matters are complex and require understanding and expert advice. We know court cases are expensive. Bell Lawyers want to save you time and money so you can get on with your life.

If only Life were so simple that a Simple Will could convey your wishes upon your death! No Frills Will Packages and Simple Guides to Wills and Estate Planning often claim to save you hundreds of dollars in legal fees. But your true intentions may be frustrated if you alone are left to judge whether your estate is too complex to fit into a template!
Bear in mind that a Simple Will does not deal with life insurance proceeds or superannuation where there are binding death benefit nominations.
Are you sure you legally “own” the assets you wish to bequeath? Often assets are actually owned by other entities, like trusts or companies. Our legal team will ensure that your Will is drafted so your interest in property passes to your intended beneficiaries.
We can minimise the tax implications of your bequest so your beneficiaries get the full benefit of their inheritance, not the Tax Office. Sometimes as much as 50% of income can be lost in income tax when beneficiaries inherit in their own name.
Are you thinking about leaving someone out of your Will? It is important to obtain legal advice about your obligation to provide for your children upon your death, including those of former marriages, otherwise you may expose your intended beneficiaries to costly litigation when your Will is challenged under Family Provision legislation.
We can draft your Will to protect your assets if you fear a marriage breakdown may leave your intended beneficiary open to a claim by a former partner. We can help protect your assets should you wish to make provision for a loved one whom you fear has had difficulty handling money in the past, may even gamble or suffer from an addiction.
Estate planning is as complex as Life. Our professional team at Bell Lawyers will discuss your concerns in confidence, provide simple explanations of the Law, and give you the peace of mind of knowing your wishes will be carried out upon your death.
