Tom, Matt and the team at Berrill & Watson have been amazing to deal with. A long process for me during which they always kept in touch and kept me informed. They have been so knowledgeable and willing to explain legal issues and addressing our queries no matter how small.

Their work and the result has been life changing, not just in sorting my legal matter out, but so importantly, in giving me validation and self respect back.

Never dismissive, impatient or neglecting to explain things in “lay person’s” terms.

I cannot thank them enough. - Clare W

I have the pleasure and highly recommend Berrill & Watson Lawyers for all your TPD claims. Grace & Kelly-Jane always answered all my calls and emails, explaining every process. They made my claim easy and got a successful result.

My life just went upside down after my permanent injury but dealing with Grace & Kelly-Jane had compassion & gave me hope 🙏 and confidence that I can get a successful TPD.

I seriously recommend Berrill & Watson Lawyers, they are people that care. They charge only for the work they have done and are a trusted and honestly BEST people I have ever dealt with. I am even recommending them to my family and friends. It’s very rare to find an HONEST company and Berrill & Watson Lawyers Melbourne is one of them.

Thank you 🙏 so much for helping me through this though time. 👍 - Olivia

The first law firm I discussed my matter with appeared to show little or no interest. I then enquired with another firm that had all the answers on their website but after speaking to them, I was strongly advised that it would be best for me to seek the specialist help of Mr Paul Watson regarding my matter.

Giving myself one last attempt, I contacted Berrill and Watson lawyers where Paul took my case on with the help of Sinea and Sophie where they got the best outcome for me during a difficult time of what was left of my career.

Thank you again for the great results regarding my TPD and IP. - Alfred

A massive Thanks to Hunter and Rachel for all their hard work and efforts with my TPD claim. For what has been a very turbulent year full of emotional and physical pain, even homelessness after my accident.

Through all this the team at Berrill and Watson took on my workload relieving alot of undue stress, Hunter and Rachael regularly updated me with the progress of my claim and were in constant communication while also being patient and understanding of my situation. Through all the hardships I have had to endure, with the support of everyone at Berrill and Watson, Hunter and Rachel were able to navigate with success a win that would help me rebuild my life and help me on my road to recovery.

I can't thank you all enough for everything that you's have done and will forever be greatfull for your help and support. - Connan R

Berrill & Watson have provided me a lifechanging experience.

Kelly and her team reduced the stress of my super claim dramatically and provided a thorough and straightforward process from start to finish. She took the time to explain the details of each step as we went, and took a great deal of the work off my plate. The outcome has literally changed my life, now with the reduced stress, I can focus on recovery and building my life back up again.

It's rare to meet someone who is not only extremely professional, but able to communicate and connect with understanding and empathy, while ALSO being extremely knowledgeable and experienced. A true unicorn on a rainbow!

I briefly consulted with another group before finding B&W, but I'm so glad I chose B&W in the end.

Kelly is easy to talk to and very approachable, so if you're considering having someone guide you through this process, be sure to reach out to her.

If you think you might have a claim, she's the best there is. Call or email her now.

100% highly recommended. - Google user "Fit 440"

I would like to thank the Team at Berrill and Watson, in particular Sinea for the absolutely professional service. Sinea was meticulous and kept me fully informed at all times.

5 Star Google Review - ⭐⭐

I was referred to Berrill & Watson from a financial planner who had other clients talk highly of the firm for their personal TPD claims. After a quick email we were put in touch with Sinea who guided me through the entire TPD process and took over my Income Protection claim.

My claim was by no means straight forward and had several layers of complexity with multiple comorbidities. Sinea was professional in all her dealings and was genuinely along for the ride with my wife and I.

Not content with just achieving the successful TPD outcome, her tenacity and advocacy lead to an interest payment due to the insurer’s unreasonable delay.

I can’t thank Berrill & Watson lawyers and Sinea enough for making such a terrible time in my life that much easier. - Josh E

Berrill & Watson Lawyers are clearly an outstanding Law firm, from the very first meeting with Tom (supported by Jess and Jasmine) it was clear i had made the right decision in selecting them to represent me.

Exceptional communication and explanations of legal process’s were invaluable and certainly put my mind at rest on multiple occasions. Questions answered promptly and clearly at all times.

A sincere thank you to Tom, Jess and Jasmine, I can confidently highly recommend Berrill and Watson. - Paul D

After conducting extensive research and engaging in several consultations with other firms, I finally decided to work with Hunter Thompson at Berrill & Watson Lawyers in Brisbane—and it was the best decision I could have made. Over the past four years, Hunter has proven himself to be nothing short of exceptional. His unwavering dedication and remarkable expertise have led to the successful resolution of four claims, each of which seemed nearly impossible to win.

Hunter’s strategic thinking and relentless pursuit of justice, combined with the diligent support of Rachel Ganner, have truly been a game changer for me. They continue to work tirelessly on my behalf, and I can honestly say I feel incredibly fortunate to have them in my corner.

If you’re looking for a team that is not only highly skilled but also genuinely invested in their clients' success, look no further. I thank my lucky stars every day for finding Hunter and Rachel.

Thank you both again so much! - Willow J

5 Star Google Review - ⭐⭐

Hunter and Paul were astonishing. I was in a difficult situation in a protracted investigation over an alleged non-disclosure on my part in a role-specific income protection insurance claim.

On a professional level, I don't think there is a more capable team in Australia for this particular matter, as they were involved in writing the legislation pertaining to non-disclosure.

On a personal level, they remained calm and coherent and were ever-patient in explaining the proceedings and their plan to me. I will be eternally grateful to them both. They successfully obtained my TPD payout and continued income protection payments until I am 65. - Marie-Clare E

5 Star Google Review - 

B&W Lawyers, Josh and the team have been professional, diligent and supportive throughout my entire experience with trying to negotiate my way through what at times has been emotionally difficult; dealing with insurance companies, IME’s and psychological examinations particularly when the circumstances are sensitive and personal in nature.
I have had TPD insurance and Income Protection for 10 years+ and further to Covid and Job keeper (which meant disappointingly and frustratingly that my actual IP payment was significantly less than my agreed insured amount.)

I originally applied by myself for IP in February 2021 (which was finally successful) and TPD in December 2021, further to ongoing interpersonal conflict in the workplace and an ongoing psychological injury coming to a head in February 2021, spanning over 7 years; but the TPD was eventually rejected towards the end of 2022 further to an IME, hence me contacting B&W.

From the moment I contacted the office and was referred to ‘Josh’, I instantly felt heard and understood. The regular communication, prompt responses and clear information has been second to none. Josh was thorough and personable, and was very respectful at all times.

Josh gave me wonderful advice and nothing was too much trouble nor did he ever make me feel uncomfortable nor anxious. His approach and manner was refreshing and reassuring, not egotistical nor pushy.
He is a wonderful asset to B&W, and my husband agrees, he has also been extremely impressed as I have communicated the process over the journey to him and what has been required of me.

The whole process is mostly arduous as usual when dealing with insurance companies (personally it took 2.5 years from the time of initiation of the TPD claim to successfully receiving the insurance payment, thanks to B&W; however; I cannot recommend Josh and the team highly enough to help the process easier to endure. I can’t thank them enough except to pass on and share my experience and gratitude!

The ‘no-win no-fee’ is exactly that, with no hidden nasties. I had to understandably pay for a couple of reports but that was clearly articulated to me prior to me signing up. If the claim is successful, then it is simply just short term financial sacrifice for long term gain.

I had so much confidence in Josh that I also engaged him and B&W services to investigate my Income Protection insurance also. Josh was successful in retrieving outstanding back payments plus the interest, and including all future payments to be increased. I could never have achieved this either on my own.

Thanks again B&W, amazing 10/10⭐️ - Abi H

The first instance I spoke to John Berrill I knew I was in good hands. Other lawyers didn’t show much interest to help me and quickly turned me down. I accidentally discovered Berrill and Watson Lawyers by a receptionist from another firm. I wish I remember that girl. I was going through a lot at that time losing my parents, back injury, losing my job etc… and not even for a second I was mistreated by John and his team.

I was dealing a lot with Daniel Rafferty and later when he left, Dellina took over. Both of them were always kind, respectful, supportive and most of all updating me regularly with the process of my TPD claim and also my Income protection claim. I have never met these people in person. I am based in Geelong and regardless their hard work and dedication to me personally was outstanding and I will forever be grateful to John, Daniel, Dellina and the team behind them.

What I was impressed that they always treated me as human being not just a number. I will recommend them not 100 percent but 200 percent to anyone. I am just a simple person that John took me on board after I spoke to him only for 30 minutes and trusted me with my case and assured me that I have a good chance to win this fight that he put so much effort into. He has a great team working with him which is hard to find especially nowadays.

I wish John and his team all the success and best for his/their future. - Viki K

We were affected by a very sophisticated financial scam so we contacted Berrill and Watson. With the free advice Paul Watson gave on how to handle the situation effectively we had the full amount returned.

He showed empathy in his dealings and was very knowledgeable and showed a full understanding of the situation. Also, he and his staff were very pleasant.

We can’t thank him enough for his support to achieve a successful outcome. We have no hesitation in recommending him to assist if people are caught similar situation. Peter and Angela

I reside in Sydney. I was looking for a TPD lawyer online and fortunately decided to ring Berrill and Watson out of all the TPD lawyers listed on Google page. Explained my situation to Theodora and here I am, I have my TPD claim approved. Paid their fee after getting my funds transferred into my account.

I think from beginning of filing my TPD claim to the end when my claim got approved and funds were in my savings account, all I spent was a medical fee of $ 200. Now they are handing my wife’s claim as well.

I never have even stepped in their office in Melbourne, never met a lawyer from their firm. All the claim’s process was done by emails and phone calls with a great team of Simmon and Leanne. This team is very polite, helpful and approachable on every single phone call. Thanks Simmon, thanks Leanne, thanks Theodora and thanks to all the lawyers of the firm.

Whoever is in need due to their or their loved one’s permanent disability, MUST contact Berrill and Watson. The whole team are good people. - Varinda S

I have been client of the Berrill and Watson Melbourne office. I had a preconceived ideas about lawyers but this law firm has changed my perception altogether.I found the lawyers also staff have social conscience .

Due to my Multiple Sclerosis I had brain fog , difficulty understanding certain legal term but both Theodora also Pinar have explained the process of TPD and income protection Insurance in plain language without any Jargon . I felt confident , I was in their capable hands . I found the staff are client focus and patient, professional, also down to earth to deal with.

I have no hesitation to recommend this firm to future clients. Im sure you will not regret with your decision to go with them.

I reached out to Paul Watson and the team at Berrill and Watson to seek legal advice on my Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Policy after I experienced an accident at work. I was given his details from a friend who works in the personal injury/insurance field who spoke very highly of him and his team.

From the outset, I found him to be a wealth of knowledge in this area of law as well as being very approachable and a good listener. This was all so reassuring during a very anxious period of my life.

Paul and Hunter took the time to explain the process in order to seek the best possible financial outcome for me and my family. What resulted was a full payout on my claim in a little under 12 months from my injury.

I am so fortunate to have found Paul and the team at Berrill and Watson! I cannot recommend them highly enough on TPD claims. Thank you!! - Paul W

Absolutely amazing experience when applying for my TPD claim. My solicitor Hunter was always available to answer my questions and calm my anxiety. He planned two steps ahead so that as information was requested we already had it to provide. It was a fairly complex claim but I felt completely supported through the process.

I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thankyou - Niclole R

One of the best choices I have made was picking up the phone and engaging with Berrell & Watson. In particular Hunter and his team made the entire process of an income protection claim simple and efficient for me. Everyone in the law firm was exceptionally diligent, kind and patient and I felt the communication between them was always impeccable.

Hunter fought my case with professionalism, whilst voicing my concerns and providing me with excellent legal advice. I was very lucky to have a positive outcome with my claim being accepted, something I not sure would have happened had I not had the support of Berrell and Watson. their representation took a huge weight off my shoulders during a difficult time and enabled me to concentrate on getting better.

I would like to acknowledge his team again for being there for me and cannot recommend them enough to anyone. - Natasha O

Anyone going through mental health issues and need to navigate a TPD claim could not recommend the team at BW more highly. Don't worry if you are not in Melbourne, they look after nationwide.

The process is complex and long and many times frustrating and sometimes you wonder if it is worthwhile. Having a good treatment team also helps you heading in the right direction.

Don't expect quick fast results from your insurer...it can and most likely will drag and drag with many obstacles to overcome. Whilst you may think that the many years of premiums you pay...in times of need that the insurance (super) company is there to help. That changes when you have a 'grey' area claim like TPD...for what it is worth don't try and do it yourself, leave it to Berrill & Watson.

Josh was my primary go to, assisted by Jessica (and the bosses) . They will keep you in the loop, respond to your calls and emails and be empathetic to your situation. - Tony O

I have ME/CFS, & other chronic illnesses, & felt terrified & too sick to take on my insurance company on my own for a TPD claim. After 13 years of not being able to work due to my illness, I contacted Berrill & Watson because I saw they specifically deal with ME/CFS Claims.

I feel completely blessed to have had Hunter Thompson represent me. He & his team were able to accomplish what I felt was totally beyond me medico-legally. Equally important though, he is a truly patient, compassionate & kind soul, & he really does understand this illness, & all the complexities of it.

I feel like Hunter went above & beyond for me, & that thank you doesn't suffice. He is very passionate about his work & the area of ME/CFS, & I wish him nothing but the very best in his future.

I highly recommend Hunter Thompson, & Berrill & Watson Lawyers, they've been fantastic. - Jodi A

I recently had the pleasure of working with Daniel from Berrill and Watson in regards to my TPD claim. From the beginning of our communication, Daniel was nothing short of exceptional. He was always prompt with his responses, professional in his mannerism, and highly knowledgeable about the process.

Daniel took the time to explain every step of the process to me and answer all of my questions thoroughly, which helped me to feel confident and less stressed throughout the entire process. He was always available to reassure me and provide guidance when I needed it most.

I am extremely grateful for all of Daniel's dedication and hard work when it came to my TPD claim. His persistence, professionalism, and calm demeanor provided reassurance and made the process so much smoother than I ever expected.

He is a true asset to the firm and I will forever be grateful for all of his help. Thank you, Daniel! - Paul P

Jessica, Joshua and John assisted me with two quite complex insurance matters recently (February to April 2023). At every step I found all members of the Berrill & Watson team to be knowledgeable, efficient and helpful.

Regular communication from the legal team to me assured me of their diligence and that they remained on top of the matters I sought them to assist with.

The team at Berrill & Watson Lawyers were helpful to me from the very beginning, meeting with me, treating me with respect, answering many questions, guiding me through all the processes and providing helpful information which clarified things, and made decisions easier. They listened very well, and responded intellegently, they were patient, and were willing to persevere even when the process became challenging on my end with gathering necessary requirements from third party participants.

They successfully won two rather significant health insurance claims for me, for a very reasonable fee. This has allowed me to be able to now afford the much needed financial support to access medical services for diagnosis and treatment of my physical condition.

If it wasn't for their help, I would have had no hope winning the claims, and would have ended up in quite a bad way medically/physically. I highly reccommend the Berrill & Watson Lawyers team. - Amos A

I honestly don't know where to start with all the praise I have for Berrill & Watson. I truly believe I would not have gotten my TPD and Income Protection payouts without them, as my Super fund was incredibly difficult to deal with and I would have given up.

Berrill & Watson keep in close contact and were always there to explain where the process was at. Their fees were so reasonable especially for how much time and effort they put in. I didn't even know that at the time of my date of disablement I had a second fund open! Berrill & Watson do all those checks to make sure you get everything you are entitled to.

I am on the disability pension and was about to run out of savings and have to move in with strangers which is very upsetting for me. Thanks to Berrill & Watson, what was a horrible traumatic way for me to end my working career, at least ended with housing security. Berrill & Watson were able to get my TPD and Income Protection payments approved from both funds. I cannot recommend them enough.

Thank you B&W. - Esther G

I recently engaged Berrill & Watson in Brisbane to assist with a Salary Continuance claim. Although I worked in a related industry to Insurance and had a reasonable understanding of the product, I knew I would need assistance with all of the work and the "know how" on Navigating the claim process.

I didn't have an existing relationship with the firm, but made contact following review of many websites. I decided to only contact Berrill & Watson based on the level and quality of educational content on their website which gave me confidence about their knowledge and experience but also their concern for their clients.

After a detailed initial consultation over the phone, I was provided with a comprehensive engagement proposal which enabled me to fully understand how they could help, and also how much their fees would be.

The claim did take some time due to issues on the side of the Insurer, but Hunter of Berrill & Watson kept me fully up to date with progress and was always available and responsive to any questions I had.

Happily, the claim was approved and Hunter even gained an additional interest payment from the Insurer due to their processing delays. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and know that I would not have been able to achieve this outcome if I attempted this on my own. Engaging Berrill and Watson was a great decision for me and has provided a great result for me and my family, removing financial worries during a difficult time. - Shaylene & John

It took me a while to fully accept the fact that I wouldn’t be able to keep doing what I know best & continue to work to earn a living.. when I reached out to many “other” legal firms I felt like a number however from the very first interaction I had with Berrill & Watson I was confident in their professional approach to manage my TPD claims.

Every team member at Berill & Watson from lawyers, associates to partners who I have dealt with over the last year was very passionate, knowledgable, patient & thorough. It’s clear this firm is all about getting the right & fair outcome for its clients!! My questions were always answered, I was consistently updated with the progress of my claims, my emails and calls returned in a timely manner, and nothing at all was too difficult - I can’t thank you all enough for the ongoing support & help.

Once you partner with Berrill & Watson you can trust you’re in safe hands. - Deena E

Berrill and Watson did an excellent job in claiming my illness and injury insurance benefits. I couldn’t believe that after 20 plus years of paying my premiums the insurance company would refuse my claim.

Tom Cobban and Suzana always communicate with me and kept pushing and finally my insurance company decided to pay. Great work and thanks to your team for there persistence and professionalism. Cheers. Rob M.

Before contacting the team of professionals at Berrill and Watson I had already consulted with two other law firms. I wanted to find the Law firm that would best suit my needs. After consulting with Berrill and Watson I decided that they were undoubtedly the best choice.
Not only were the team professional, warm, friendly, helpful and thoroughly diligent but kind and caring.

I had signed an initial cost agreement which was perfectly reasonable. After proceedings went smoothly and the desired outcome was achieved in much less time then anticipated I was charged a significantly less ammount then what I had agreed to.

I feel that Berril and Watson Lawyers are a fantastic and highly ethical Law firm, I'd recommend their expertise to anyone! - Mark V

Matt Charbel and Alexander Thew from Berrill & Watson Lawyers assisted me with a TPD and Income Protection claim. They worked tirelessly to assist me with this claim and successfully won both. They were understanding and compassionate toward me from the start regarding my disability and struggles, and made me feel supported throughout the entire process.

I felt not a shred of judgment throughout the process, and I understood everything I needed to do to assist the claim as they were so thorough with explaining everything. Whenever I had a concern or query, I was able to be put at ease swiftly and effectively by them.

This entire process was successful only because of Berrill & Watson and the hard work they put in to win claims. Their fees are very reasonable, which is such a bonus. I cannot recommend them enough. - Alecia N

I came to Berrill and Watson after being referred to Michael Bates. After going through 24 months using a different firm and not getting even close to getting a resolution or receiving communication, it became stressful and frustrating. I didn’t know what to do or where to go to next. A client of mine referred Michael and said he will offer me a free consultation and guide me in the right direction.

At first I was scared by the last 24 month’s. Instantly Michael made me feel comfortable feeling like I could already see that I was in good hands. Michael helped me fully understand the process and gave me the truth good and bad. This communication really put me at ease.

Only 3 months went by and Michael called to tell me that he had fantastic news and we got the result we were looking for.

A 5 star review and commenting on support I received fin Michael bates can’t be expressed in just words. Even after the matter was resolved I still speak with Michael to find out how we are. Thank you again Michael and the team at Berrill and Watson. Highly recommend- David L

Do not hesitate to explore your options with B&W if you are looking for legal representation with insurance claims.

The team at B&W Lawyers helped us with two successful insurance claims for two different individuals in the family. One was TPD and one was IP & TPD. The first claim pertained to a mental illness and the second claim pertained to a rare disease called Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), both of which there is no cure for. Both claims were complicated.

Dealing with the team was easy as the communication was top notch. Joanne from B&W helped with both claims and we have nothing but praise for her kindness, empathy, patience, and professionalism; and this extends to the team.

The fees were reasonable without eroding the recipient’s payout which is fair and ethical, which I believe is reflected in their process in our experience. Previous experience with bigger law firms who provide all inclusive service also charge higher fees. With B&W, we provided the major documents such as primary medical reports for submission, and they deal with the rest. While there were some leg work on our part, delegating communication with the insurer to B&W made the claims process much less stressful so that you can focus on other things. - M.C

I would like to thank the team at Berrill & Watson, with special mention to Joshua Saunders.

Josh you should be extremely proud of the person you are. The patience and professionalism you displayed in our conversations was above and beyond. I sit here still blown away by the care and understanding you have shown me; I would not have made it this far without you. Thank you.

To Michael and John. You both should be extremely proud of the work you do and the firm you have built. I wish you every success in the future. Keep up fighting for the little guy.

On reflection I realise I brought along a lot of mistrust of the insures and law firms, I am both sorry and embarrassed by how I acted at times because of this, I caused a lot of extra unneeded stress and I cannot apologise enough for that. I will gladly recommend you to anyone.

Thank you all for working so hard on securing my future. - D.P

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Michael Bates of Berrill and Watson, who conducted my case with great patience, understanding, compassion and great results.

I didn’t realise at all that I had the opportunity to claim my income protection and trauma insurance compensation, because I was in such a condition that I had lost all hope for justice in this world.

The Financial Counsellor Bernie Meehan, whom I turned to for advice, recommended to me Berrill and Watson as leading plaintiff superannuation and insurance law firm in Australia.

Thanks to my discussions with Berrill and Watson I was made aware that I had an opportunity to claim compensation from my insurance company.

I was very fortunate to have Michael Bates assigned to my case. Michael is a specialist with a capital letter S. I met Michael at a very difficult and stressful time in my life. He was always available to answer any of my many questions and provide me with guidance and direction beyond the call of duty. Michael himself is a congenial and friendly person. He's easy to talk and has been a pillar of strength throughout my case.

His passion and dedicated to me as his client insured that I received the outcome I desired. I am very, very happy with what Michael did for me, and would gladly recommend him to anyone.
I want to express again my deep respect and the greatest of gratitude to Michael Bates and his team. - Natalia Z

They made a 'heads up' phone call before sending out emails and explained what would be in the email. They guided me, reassured me and made the progress of my legal matter a smooth and painless process. I am saddened to lose a team who have been a great support for 2 years.

What a relief !! We made a TPD claim, and after going it alone for a year, day after day head to head with the insurance company, enough was enough. The level of stress Insurance companies apply while trying to not honor their obligation is high and relentless. They used every trick in the book to deter us, and when they run out of tricks they rolled out a Highly paid independent medical examiners in attempt to override actual medical evidence. They paid a IME$ 2152.00 for a 30 minute appointment to write a report that suited them, he did and there is nothing independent about that. That was the final straw for us.

We contacted Hunter at Berrill and Watson who took over and we never looked back, Hunter achieved settlement in a few months, his experience and understanding of how the insurance companies processes work are priceless. Without Hunter we may have never had a result, best decision we ever made. Dont go it alone, call Berrill and Watson. - Tony H

John and Patrick were amazing! Unlike other large corporate law firms these guys listened to me carefully and compassionately, they treated me as a real person as opposed to just another case number in an automated claim system. They really thought about my claim and carefully considered my individual case before proposing a well thought out legal plan of action.

On top of this, their fee structure was very reasonable and John made a particular point of saying he didn’t want to charge me anything if they didn’t get a result for me.

Throughout the process I was kept informed at every step and Patrick was never too busy to take my calls even after hours when I was overseas. In the end, even though the case had already been won, Patrick went above and beyond by lodging and winning an extra claim for an interest payment, despite not earning any additional fees for that additional claim. I cannot thank them enough or recommend them more highly. Thank you guys 🙏 - Mark F

When I took up my TPD policy, in addition to the one I had with my super fund (and was not even aware that I had it), I never imagined that I would ever have to use it… That is where Berrill and Watson Lawyers fit into the frame… they came highly recommended, but exceeded my expectations and then some.

Pretty much every aspect of my case, handled by Marissa and John, was carried out with utmost professionalism, businesslike manner and, what is very important to me, a person of ill health, with great empathy, tact and personal touch. They organised the payout of the smaller policy (super fund one) first which allowed for some relief and settled my nerves a bit. Then onto the bigger case… it took a long time and a lot of effort from Marissa and John but the insurer finally came through. Marissa was with me every step of the way, she followed up with the insurer with amazing regularity with zero need for prompting or hassling. John made sure I was updated on the bigger picture always providing me with possible options and various strategies to employ depending on how the situation could develop.

Thanks to both Marissa and John I was always prepared in advance for that next crucial move. Last but not least, the Fees. There is a lot of hearsay about the exorbitant fees lawyers charge… not Berrill and Watson, though. Their fees were fair and very reasonable and I can safely say that they were definitely deserved. I have no hesitation in recommending services of Berrill and Watson to anyone unlucky enough to be in need of claiming on their TPD policy. - Rom L

Tessa was amazing and kept me informed all the way I live in a rural setting and I am over 1500km away and they always took time for any questions or help I needed Tessa took all the stress away of the claim(which was successful)so I could concentrate on my sickness.

I recently had need to make a claim on my insurance within super. I spoke to a couple of other larger law firms before settling on Berrill & Watson. I made this decision based on my initial conversations with Tess and how incredibly responsive she was to my various questions (one of the other big firms only followed up after claim was already settled!).

Tess and Paul were generous with their time and took all the stress out of making such a claim. They gave me excellent advice and kept me up to date throughout the claim process which was successfully completed in a short time. I cannot recommend their services enough for anyone needing to deal with such an insurance claim. They are great people to have by your side. - David W

I would like to thank you for their professional work. Long story, my wife had stage 4 lung cancer. We tried to claim the insurance through her superannuation. We were rejected by the insurance company with some non-sense reasons.

Luckily we contacted Berrill and Wastson Lawyers. They helped us to claim the insurance money. Without their help, I don't think we were able to claim anything from the insurance company. Sadly my wife passed away one month before the settlement of the insurance claim. Special thanks to Joanne O'Neill to handle my case. - Me O

What was an extremely stressful time and process for me was made a lot easier and the entire team were always very helpful and quick to respond.

Berrill & Watson Lawyers were highly recommended to me via a reputable Lawyer for my TPD claim process. Recently my TPD claim was approved! Like most people I thought I'd never, ever need this TPD compensation but I did. I have a workplace Psychological injury. Feeling so overwhelmed, I first spoke to Norm, and then Gabrielle and David who really supported me from there on. They both held my hand the whole way through the process and I was able to proceed at my pace. They are all so kind, professional, genuine, caring, and supportive and was always treated with respect.

Later when I spoke to my Financial Councillor he said he refers clients that need this support to Berrill & Watson Lawyers also and only ever receives positive feedback about their service and outcomes also. This firm offers the best professional service I have ever received and is certainly outstanding and I highly recommend Berrill & Watson for TPD, SCI and anyone that needs guidance with DSP also.

Paul Watson and Hunter Thompson of Berill Watson lawyers provided successful representation and professional support in my wife’s TPD claim. We had previously pursued an insurer in an income protection claim and this was an extremely drawn-out and difficult experience. Hence we decided that legal representation would strengthen my wife’s TPD claim.

Unfortunately reviewing legal firms specialising in compensation claims was a lengthy and complicated process. Most operators’ promise of ’No Win, No Fee’ arrangements fail to accurately describe the truth behind their cost agreements and lack transparency regarding legal costs in relation to a received compensation award. In comparison, Berrill & Watson provided a detailed and comprehensible fixed fee proposal and immediately responded to all our queries prior to their formal engagement.

It is essential to be able to clearly communicate with your lawyer and for your lawyer to be able to promptly convey case-related matters well. We felt Paul and Hunter were approachable, actively listened to our concerns, and promptly acted on our requests. Information they conveyed and instructions for action were clear and easy to understand. Their assertive interaction and correspondence with the insurer confirmed that we made the right decision which, including our well-preparedness, contributed to a positive claim outcome within a reasonable time frame. Our thanks to Berrill & Watson, we would recommend them to others requiring similar assistance. - Stefan K

I can not praise enough the experience of my family in dealing with Berrill & Watson and in particular Michael Bates. Following a tragedy in the family, the life insurer, not so surprisingly started to look for reasons to not pay out. We sought advice through word of mouth as to who were the best lawyers to work with. Berrill and Watson were referred to from a few people I trust in the know. As a legal practice they were impressive, maintaining a light, guiding touch early on as the threat of claim refusal was being played out. In our dealing we experienced a high level of integrity. They did not seek excessive fees for service and never underplayed what was at stake for the family. We highly recommend them as a legal practice around any potentially life changing insurance disputes. They know what they are doing. - George H

Norm with his initial visit with me , giving me the confidence to move forward,. Matt and Emily always provided me with constant updates and correspondence with regards to my case. I cannot speak highly enough of Matt as he would always ask how I was going (this was a very stressful time) and he made me feel extremely comfortable that my case was in expert hands. The care and professionalism that Matt and Emily displayed was exceptional. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone requiring assistance in their field of law.

Tom and his team were in constant contact throughout the whole process and showed great understanding and patience and made a sometimes daunting process seem easy. Tom and his team not only helped my husband get an outcome on his TPD claim but he also was able to successfuly claim TPD from another of his superannuation funds. We are so appreciative for everything that Tom and his team have done for us and would highly recommend them without hesitation. Thankyou again, Glen & Vicki W

We’d give “Berrill & Watson” branch in Melbourne not 5, but ‘10’ stars if we could! As my TPD claim was very complexed, old and not straight forward, I was told by other law firms that I would not be successful in my numerous claims.......the Melbourne staff through their knowledge, experience, determination and professionalism were able to successfully promptly receive 100% results in not one, but all of my claims! Not only did I receive my full TPD payment, they also successfully made the insurance companies pay me interest! Tom and also his Fantastic staff Mary, Rhiana and Patrick continuously assisted me from start to finish. They made a very complex and difficult time for me less stressful and a lot easier to cope with! This is especially important when you have a serious chronic illness like me.....the less stress the better! Even though I’m located in Sydney this was never an issue. They would keep me constantly updated during the whole process, meaning I never had to chase them up, which is unlike many other law firms. I found this Amazing! Also I knew upfront exactly what their fees were, meaning no unexpected costs unlike others firms who were very vague! I have never met or dealt with a legal firm as good as this one! I very, very ‘Highly’ recommend the Melbourne office of “Berrill & Watson” to everyone!!! I’d like to Sincerely Thank all of the staff there. Their overall Professionalism, Service, Compassion and Understanding was ‘Outstanding’, and also for getting me the best results possible, for which I am extremely grateful for! Thank you all again! - Virginia D

Over the last several years we have been dealing with some major insurance issues. We have never come across a more dedicated professional and talented bunch of staff.

I can not recommend Michael, John and the team more highly - they should be on everybody’s speed dial.

I can't speak highly enough of the team at Berrill & Watson. I have had a very complicated case and prior to B & W had two other legal firms represent me. The first well known firm dragged my claim on for 5yrs with no result, the 2nd after a few months told me my claim was complicated and recommended that Berrill and Watson would be the firm to help me. So true!! In a few short months Berrill and Watson had secured me a successful outcome (which was not without it challenges) and they did so without causing my already heightened anxiety to increase. To David, Christina and the team. THANKYOU - Kim W

I highly recommend Berrill & Watson Lawyers. I was dealing with Michael and he is fantastic to deal with, he will give you an honest opinion and is highly knowledgeable in all superannuation issues. My TPD claim went on for many years with another law firm and then I went to the SCT for help, both were unable to get me an outcome. Once I engaged Berrill Watson I was very surprised how quickly they were able to get things done. My claim was successfully granted approximately 9 months after I first contacted Michael. In the context of how long I was waiting from previous avenues this was quite quick. I thank the team at Berrill & Watson Lawyers and if you are having trouble with your claim you should definitely contact them. - Joseph C

Dear Tom,

I know the decision was not what we were looking for but I feel we won!

This fight has lasted ten years now and I am glad we saw this to the end; maybe next time if there is a similar complaint the Tribunial will look at things differently.

I just want to say thank you for taking my case on, it was such a relief. When we first talked i could tell you were a gun....then i realised not only did you protected me from the vultures, you listened compassionately and judged the right moments to tell me things which were not in my favour. I had been bullied for so long I forgot what human decency felt like.

I would also like to pass on my sincere thanks to your assistant Mark. At first I thought I would need to relay my story again but to my surprise he was up to date with my situation and showed the same professionalism and a dose of compassion. Several times he just called to clarify a response which in turn made me feel we were all on the same page. Thank you as sometimes I was not in a good space mentally and would ramble about the injustice taking place.

Finally, if anyone i hear needs help with these matters.... I will certainly without any hesitation pass your number on with high praise. There is nothing I can fault about your company.

Thank you for helping me regain trust back in humanity.

With much respect Helen

I would like to thank Tom Cobbin and all of the wonderful staff at Berrill & Watson for not only providing a very successful outcome with my TPD case in record time, but also for taking the stress out of the process. After wasting three long years with two previous lawyers that got me nowhere, I turned to Tom Cobbin at Berrill & Watson. Tom is honest, diligent and knows his stuff.

I would have to say that they may be the best TPD lawyers in the country. If you have a TPD Claim through your Super, the biggest mistake you might ever make, is not showing to Beril & Watson first. Highly Recomended!
