I can't recommend LHD Lawyers in Sydney highly enough. They handled my TPD claim with absolute professionalism and care. From start to finish, the team was prompt, proper, and always kept me in the loop. A special shout out to Alvin,… More who did an amazing job of staying in touch and making sure I had regular updates. Thanks to their dedication, the entire process was much smoother.
LHD Lawyers have been amazing and have really helped me with my workers compensation claim when I was getting nowhere with the insurance company. Sandra went above and beyond for me and was always checking in and making sure I had done… More everything I had to do on my end and she made everything stress free and easy for me. Thanks to Sandra I am now getting compensated for my injury. Thank you for all your effort.
Sandra Aziz and the team at LHD Lawyers were nothing short of amazing. I was feeling reluctant about getting legal representation, but after my first conversation with Sandra, I knew I had made the right decision. Sandra and her team were… More always empathetic and understanding of my situation. I was kept informed every step of the way, with everything explained in words that I could actually understand. Paperwork for signing was sent directly to my phone, so I could do it all from the comfort of my own home. I got an amazing outcome that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend LHD Lawyers Sydney to anyone on the fence like I was, and with the "no win, no fee" side of things, what have you got to lose?
What can I say about LHD? This company is absolutely awesome. When I first thought of sueing, I rang George Malouf and Partners. 6 weeks later a clerk from George Malouf and Partners contacted me to say they couldn't find any information… More about me and/or the time span of the date of the injury till then was too long. So that night LHD appeared on the TV and the lady who was claiming could have been me. I phoned LHD the next day and right from the getgo, they treated me like a real person that my claim mattered. Within weeks LHD found I was entitled to a TPD payment. That was paid into my account and a base fee was paid to LHD. They then went after my workers compensation claim . They took my evidence I supplied like it was real and that it mattered to me. The entire case was conducted by phone, tele-phone and emailing, not once did I have to leave my residence. The case closed today, and I have a very very nice sum of money that LHD won for me. I cannot thank them enough. Cheers LHD!!
It is actually quite difficult to express how incredibly professional, committed, compassionate and supportive my team at LHD was during what was one of the most difficult times in my life. Christina Dahdal showed me so much kindness and… More understanding during this time and I can honestly say that if it wasn’t for her, I would not have pursued my case of constructive dismissal. She is an amazing human and is one of the best people I have ever had to deal with. I strongly recommend LHD AND Christina Dahdal to support you through your claim.
My experience with LHD was exceptional on every level. The staff, each and every one of them were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, they we're kind, sympathetic and always helpful. They always explained proceedings in 'layman's… More terms' for me to understand.
Without their expertise, help and guidance, I would not have been aware of my entitlement.
I would thoroughly recommend LHD without hesitation as they went above and beyond my expectations, for which I am truly grateful.
LHD did an incredible job of supporting me through my workplace injury claim for over 2 years. They were informative, communicative and professional always and I was glad to receive a lump sump settlement due to their help and expertise.… More
I cannot recommend enough!
Christina Dahdal was my lawyer for my workers compensation claim, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better.

She’s been absolutely amazing, and I highly recommend her and the LHD team for their incredible work. I’m so happy with my result and so relieved to finally put this part of my life behind me!
I first contacted LHD Lawyers in mid 2003 re. workers compensation. From the outset, the communication has been clear, professional and timely. I never felt like I was being judged or made to feel inept by any of the LHD staff. This has… More made such a difference to my journey and each of the stages. The LHD teams who worked on my claim have been successful in achieving good outcomes for the claim and especially my health and well-being. I highly recommend them to anyone for these reasons.
Thanks to Alvin and Emily for helping me with my TPD claim.
I can't thank them enough for my outcome. It was a long process (not because of LHD) but because of the amount involved and the insurance company trying everything not to… More pay it out.
Alvin guided me through it and I eventually got my full due amount which took unbelievable stress off of me and my family.
I can't thank LHD and Alvin Ngo enough and wouldn't hesitate to reccomend them to anyone.
Regards
Michael

LHD Lawyers WA helped me with my workplace settlement, after being injured and unable to continue working. While LHD Lawyers Sydney, contacted me about my eligibility to claim a TPD payment, which I would not have been aware of without… More speaking with LHD. My experience with LHD was excellent, and I barely had to do anything through the process of my claims and was kept up to date along the way.
Firstly I would like to thank Alvin Ngo and the team. They have gone above and beyond to help me. I have a very complex medical situation which changed during the process and they were still successful in getting my TPD payment. They contacted… More me regularly to update on progress and answered any questions I had. They provided advice and support to assist me with my ongoing health issues of what the next steps are so I can get assistance and support from other areas. If I ever need legal assistance again I would have no hesitation to use or recommend LHD Lawyers.

I am very grateful, with all the support Alvin and Myriel has given me.

LHD have been amazing for our family. After my husbands accident things looked very bleak, but Wes and the team from LHD took over and made everything so easy for us to take the next steps. They were caring for our whole family, caring… More for my husband, but also efficient and extremely professional with the whole process. Communication was of a high standard we were never left wondering our next steps. I highly recommend Wes and his team from LHD to get the results you need.
I had Lisa and her team sorting out my claim on my behalf. So easy. Everything is done for you. You just have to respond to messages and relax while they do the heavy lifting. Not having to think about it all meant I could focus on other… More things. The process was quicker and easier than expected. Would definitely recommend LHD if you want your claim done without the stress of paperwork. They use docusign so there's no waiting on snail mail to fill out paperwork. Thank you LHD, I can move on with my life and get back on my feet again.
I can’t thank Jasmina Mackovic from LHD Lawyers enough for everything she did for me during one of the most difficult times in my life. After my husband’s passing as a result of a workplace accident, I was completely overwhelmed trying… More to navigate the workers compensation process. Jasmina took the time to explain everything clearly, handled the communication with the insurance company, and guided me through what turned out to be a long and challenging process.
She kept me informed every step of the way, always advocating for me and taking as much of the stress off my shoulders as possible. Beyond her professionalism, she showed such kindness and compassion, supporting me through the heartache and frustrations. I’ll always be grateful for her care and dedication, she truly made an unbearable situation a little easier to get through.

You were all very professional and thoughtful of my situation and I… More couldn't have gone through this experience without you there to help and guide me.
Recognition of what happened to me was very important and I got that so I'm very happy and it makes it easier to move on once you have it.
A VERY BIG THANK YOU.
Christina Dahdal, who has been with several law firms and who was my lawyer for a worker’s compensation claim while she was with Withstand Law firm. Christina quit that job and her boss decided to release all of her clients effective immediately… More !
Christina called asap to reassure me that she could refer me to another firm or when she went to LHD she would take me claim on once again.
Christina claims to be compassionate and have empathy, this is incorrect as I have tried to contact her in her new role at LHD and she has not even had the decency to reply to my numerous requests, both written emails and calling through to her via the main LHD phone line.
Christina is obviously a shark like her old boss and her reputation means nothing when promises aren’t met !
I think this maybe her 3rd role as a lawyer with a different firm, if not it’s definitely her 2nd firm she has been with.
That says more than the words she uses, like “passionate “ or “empathetic”.
Wonder how long she stays with this firm !
From the first phone call to the last, I was listened to treated with respect and valued and felt cared about.
Dilan and Zoe have been very caring and kind and highly professional with my circumstances and have achieved a fantastic outcome… More for me.
I would have no hesitation in recommending LHD Lawyers and especially Dilan and Zoe to anyone who needs help and support
I was fortunate to have LHD Lawyers recommended to me by a friend and I hope that this review will benefit someone who really needs the help of an good firm. I was very fortunate to work Alvin Ngo, a genuine person with outstanding knowledge… More and skills who was fully invested in helping me. My experience with Alvin was flawless and I experienced kindness and top-notch skills at their very best. From my first meeting with Alvin I felt comfortable and reassured. I could tell he was extremely knowledgeable and I felt for the first time that someone knew what I was going through, understood the frustration I was experiencing and had the skills and experience to truly make a difference. He explained things to me in real terms and not legal jargon and expertly guided me through the maze I had been facing. I cannot recommend LHD and Alvin highly enough. If you are looking for the right firm to support you, you have found them in LHD and Alvin.
Philip and team worked really hard to Get me the desired outcome. I was able to communicate with Philip and the team during the whole process and really appreciated how hands-on LHD lawyers have been during the whole process. if you’re… More looking for a team that you can communicate with and to work hard to get your design outcome, I would definitely recommend LHD lawyers. They have been amazing.
I had two separate claims, both handled well by LHD, and I'm really happy with the results! The LHD team was easy to talk to, and Alvin, who handled my TPD claim, was awesome – he explained everything clearly and simply. Highly recommended!… More
I am so glad I hired LHD Lawyers to help me with my Superannuation Insurance Claim as they found I could also claim on past Super funds.I think I'm still in shock!! Definitely one of the best decisions of my life hiring them. So a… More Big THANK YOU!! LHD
I engaged LHD Sydney after a horrific work place injury in 2023. The injury saw me requiring representation with a workers comp claim and public liability claim and i have been with LHD Sydney the entire time and going on 2 years engagement… More now. I was very lucky to have Wes (Practice Leader) on my case and Joelle as my Instructing Solicitor. Wes not only brings a wealth of knowledge and experience that makes him confident and willing and capable of pushing for every right for me / clients and not scared to push back when needed against insurance companies but he brings a calm and rational tone and care for clients and for me, that was a huge comfort. Joelle is a super star! Again, brings a calm and caring attitude but more importantly is extremely smart, "on the ball" and i can say if Joelle says she will call you on a certain day, Joelle calls that day. If Joelle says she will follow up on an issue, Joelle follows up. Joelle is exceptionally reliable and I never felt I was "chasing" my legal team and if you find yourself in the unfortunate position of an injury etc, you want LHD Sydbey - Wes and Joelle on your side.
We were successful in winning my claim. The team at LHD were very helpfull. They explained everything to me clearly before and during the claim process. The cost was less than quoted and the estimated time frame of 6 months was spot on.… More Thank you LHD for all your help.
LHD are great. They managed to get me compensation for a work place injury in a reasonably quick amount of time, with no expenses incurred, utilising their no win no fee offer. Would definitely recommend to anyone seeking advice and compensation.… More
I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding support and expertise provided by the team throughout my legal journey. Their professionalism, dedication, and thoughtful approach truly exceeded my expectations. A special thank you to Jamie… More for going above and beyond your guidance and commitment made all the difference.
The outcome was more than I could have hoped for, and I couldn’t be happier with the way everything was handled. I highly recommend this team to anyone seeking trustworthy and results-driven legal assistance.
They handled my TPD with such care and support I highly recommend Alvin and his team. A painless and smooth process. They guided me through every step and explained everything to me. I felt very supported. People you can really trust and… More lean on to get the job done. I was able to let them take care of the whole process so I can focus on my health. I appreciate them beyond words. Thank you all so much for taking care of me.
I had Paul as my solicitor from the Sydney firm he was awesome I was about to give up sick of going from dr to dr and feeling like not getting anywhere, the insurance company was giving me the run around and not taking liability. I told… More Paul I want to give up and talked me out of it and sent me to his recommended drs, and I ended up with more compensation then I expected. Recommend LHD to anyone they fight to the end and I love the idea of no win no fee.
LHD Lawyers in Sydney Thankyou so much for everything you have done for me through my eight years and 4 months of my workers comp claim .The worry that my Lawyer Jamie Nemme took control of and the his fantastic secretaries that he has… More behind him Jamie Gallegher and Isabella DeCelis were very professional and caring and I would not of done without them.Thankyou so much to both of you. I found the city lawyer LHD was far better than where I live in the country. The only sad thing of my case closing and coming to end is that I won’t have that friendly touch from Jamie and the girls on the end of the phone. I would highly recommend that if anyone is in need a compensation lawyer you pick up the phone and call LHD lawyers Sydney. Thankyou again to you all.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Solicitor, Mr Alvin Ngo of LHD Lawyers on my Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claim, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for his knowledge, skills, ultimate professionalism and refreshing… More authenticity.
From the very beginning, Alvin Ngo and his assistant, Ms Emily Ackerman, demonstrated a profound understanding of the intricacies involved in TPD claims. They guided me through every step of the process with expertise and compassion, ensuring that I felt supported and informed throughout.
What impressed me most was their unwavering commitment to my case. They took the time to thoroughly understand my unique situation and tailored their approach to meet my specific needs. Their attention to detail and relentless pursuit of justice on my behalf were truly remarkable.
Communication was another standout aspect of my experience with Alvin Ngo and Emily Ackerman. They kept me updated regularly, promptly addressed my queries, and explained any issues that were difficult to understand. I always felt like a valued client, never just another case number.
Thanks to their expertise and hard work, my TPD claim was successful, and I received the support I needed during a challenging time in my life. Their dedication and professionalism made a significant difference, and I am incredibly thankful for their assistance.
I highly recommend LHD Lawyers, especially Alvin Ngo and Emily Ackerman, to anyone in need of legal assistance, particularly for TPD claims. Their exceptional service, knowledge, and genuine care for their clients make them a standout choice. Thank you, Alvin and Emily, for your outstanding support and for making a positive impact on my life.
I recently had a work related injury, I didn't think I had much of a case for myself to receive compensation. I got in contact with LHD lawyers and was passed onto Alvin and his assistant Emily. They were very punctual about their… More work and I feel their effort was unmatched, they consistently provided me with the information and updates relating to my case. They have made the process so easy and stress free during some rather difficult times. I couldn't recommend them any higher. Thankyou guys, so much.
I had Emily Pignone from LHD Lawyers work on my TPD claim, and I couldn't be happier with the result. I initially considered handling it myself, but I'm so glad I didn't. Emily was efficient, got my TPD approved quickly,… More and made the process stress-free by explaining everything clearly.
She was professional, easy to work with, and truly had my best interests in mind. The fees for LHD’s services were absolutely worth it for the expertise and results they delivered. I highly recommend Emily and LHD Lawyers for your TPD claims.
First of all, I’d like to thank Mr Alvin Ngo & Ms Emily Ackerman, and the team from LHD Lawyers for a life changing result for my family. I had major neck surgery 17 years + ago and I almost fell through the corporate insurance cracks,… More until I was referred to LHD Lawyers. Two years ago I took the opportunity to speak with LHD lawyers. I was assigned to Mr Alvin Ngo to tackle my TPD case. I, of course Googled him, and was very impressed with this legal ethic and ability as a specialist TPD lawyer. The claims process took over 2 years. The absolute diligence of both Mr Ngo & his assistant Ms Emily Ackerman, was amazing. They gave regular update on my situation and I was constantly advised of what stage we were up to, for the good or bad. He listened to our every word, which I found this very reassuring as I worked in a small business and appreciated the constant updates. I always had great faith in Mr Ngo’s ability and his devoted attention to what was at hand. Just recently, Mr Ngo, has been able to finalise my case. This judgement has been huge for my family. But it was not all about the compensation, it was just great to see the correct judgement being made, after 10+ years of battling the insurance company. Both He and Ms Ackerman worked extensively on my case, which I will never forget. And in this instance, I believe that they were just as happy as us with the result.
I would have no hesitation on recommending Alvin and his team to help anybody in the same situation.
Don’t give up – You have LHD lawyers in your corner.
They are there to help and see that you are correctly compensated.
Thank you
Carlos & Maree
My experience with LHD lawyer's was exceptional, honest with advice given to me and I would 100 percent recommend them without any hesitation. I felt Paul Singh and his team were excellent and supported me all throughout my public… More liability case.
Going through this for the first time it was confusing but they were available for me at all times.
They were professional and made me feel at ease considering I had no idea what I was doing.
I must mention Jade, Megan and Rachel who were… More a pleasure and extremely helpful.
Also my barrister made me feel confident that they would do there best for me.
What an absolutely brilliant team. They were clear with their instructions & very efficient with their communication. They're also very compassionate & understanding. I highly recommend these lawyers.
I wish to thank Dilan Kasturi and Georgia Phelps for all the work they did for me to receive a positive outcome with my workers compensation claim. They were very professional, helpful and friendly throughout the whole process. They also… More kept me well informed as to how things were proceeding. I highly recommend Dilan and Georgia, LHD lawyers Sydney.
I'm compelled to share our extraordinary experience with LHD Lawyers, who expertly handled my mother's TPD Super claim. After years of physical suffering and financial hardship due to a debilitating lumbar spine injury sustained… More at work, LHD Lawyers provided hope and delivered results.
Associate Alvin and his exceptional paralegal Emily were instrumental in securing a successful outcome. Their professionalism, empathy, and tireless efforts exceeded our expectations. From the initial consultation to the final resolution, they demonstrated unwavering dedication and expertise.

My workers compensation case was extremely complicated as the insurer was denying I was a worker as I am a director in my company.
LHD Lawyers, in particular Dilan Kasturi, fought for me and got a ruling that I was a deemed worker. Dilan… More was always accessible. He guided me through the whole process and was available whenever I had a question.
Although I received the maximum payout for my injury, I was most happy with the fact that we won a complex case. I don't believe I would have had the same outcome with a different law firm.
Thanking the whole team for the amazing work they did.
I am writing this reviewto put in words my appreciation and gratitude how Alvin Ngo and Emily handled my claim. After my accident I didn't know what to do or who to turn to. After seeing an add on TV about LHD lawyers I decided to… More give them a call. It was the best move I could of done for myself and my families future.
The lawyer who was assigned to my claim as I have mentioned was Alvin Ngo and his assistant Emily which I could not of asked for better help. When I first talked to Alvin about my claim he was very thorough and explained clearly what I was entitled to.
Throughout the claim Alvin and Emily kept me updated with how the claim was progressing and I felt comfortable about a good outcome. Alvin made me feel confident how he explained everything in an easy to understand way and I had full trust in his decisions.
When Alvin rung me and told me that we had won the claim I was that grateful for all his hard work and effort he had done for me. I would like to thank Alvin and Emily for such a great job and would happily recommend them highly to represent anyone. Thankyou again.
I would just like to express my gratitude for all the help Dilan Kasturi and Georgia Phelps have assisted in over the previous year and still ongoing workers compensation claim. The day come yesterday with the amazing news of finally getting… More approval for my long awaiting surgery. I can't thank you guys enough.

The experience with my solicitor, Alvin and his assistant Emily, from LHD Lawyers was one of integrity, honesty and professionalism. They resurrected a TPD claim that I had abandoned in frustration and were able to provide a positive outcome.… More Living in a regional area, I was not disadvantaged by the tyranny of distance as all dealings and documentation were online and supplemented with phone interviews. I hold Alvin and Emily in the highest regard for their knowledge and perseverance, thank you so much. In my opinion, don't go it alone, use LHD Lawyers.
I wish to thank Dilan Kasturi and his assistant Georgia Phelps for acting on my behalf in my TPD claim. After it was initially refused by the Insurer Dilan and Georgia took over the case and have worked diligently to produce a positive… More outcome. I was very fortunate to have Dilan and Georgia in my corner. They were both very professional and kept me informed on a regular basis. I certainly can recommend LHD Lawyers.
I have had the pleasure of working with this company for matters for some years now and never dissappointed once.
Exceptional teams and talent who took me through everything i needed to understand in golden retreiver talk.
The claim progressed… More thanks to the professionalism of LHd and I cant thank them enough.
Big shout out to Dilan and georgia. Brilliant team and cut through the BS by other parties ( you know who) like butter.
Champions all.

I have been very fortunate to have Alvin represent me through my TPD claim.
Alvin is informative and keeps you updated as required throughout the process.
He is extremely understanding, has personality but above all he does not make you… More feel like just another client.
Alvin ensured I was not exposed to any further damaging situations.
Between himself and Emily I felt like I had a power team of knowledge, compassion and professionalism.
I could converse openly with both Alvin and Emily and thankfully my matter was complete in my favour.
The one thing that stood out about Alvin to me personally was his personality, his sense of humour and the warmth in the conversations we had when he knew they were a little tough or uncomfortable.
I cannot thank you enough Alvin, as well as Emily.
You are truly appreciated and absolutely fantastic
I contacted LHD Lawyers in July of 2022 after seeing an Ad on TV to see if they could help with a TPD claim for my back. I received a quick response and my claim process started. Alvin was in charge of my case and helped me through the… More process. At times I struggled with confidence but Alvin reassured me and explained the process.
I could not have achieved a positive outcome without their tireless efforts. You have nothing to loose by picking up the phone and asking the question.
I have had the pleasure of dealing with Lisa and her team for my TPD claim and can only but praise them for their thorough investigation into my case and excellent result. Thank you very much I would highly recommend this company
I would like to thank Dilan&Georgia LHD lawyers for there dilligence & professionalism in supporting me & being so empathetic i am very grateful indeed LHD /lawyers to have this firm looking after my best interests getting results… More that better my life /Health moving forward I would recommend LHD Lawyers very professional indeed ✔️✔️
I have had nothing but fantastic support and guidance by LHD, especially Alvin Ngo whos has been so supportive towards me, thankyou Alvin I cannot say enough. To all the team at LHD I have to say a massive THANKYOU to all involved in my… More case, I wish you all the very best and I now know you will all continue to shine in the legal system.
Solicitor Alvin Ngo and his secretary Emily Ackerman are champions of the disadvantaged and have achieved a miracle outcome for me. For almost a decade I lived with a sense of hopelessness due to rare illness and obscure difficulty obtaining… More support.
A testimony to his experience, perceptiveness and character, Alvin quickly and precisely understood my circumstance where many have failed to see. Professionally, Alvin's initial forecast of the process and challenges involved was highly accurate and personally, Alvin displayed empathy from the heart.
With Alvin and Emily I felt supported by competent professionals of integrity and skill, who overcame technical obstacles to win my entitlement. At every stage I had confidence and complete trust in them. Both exhibit a calm demeanour and have excellent communication skills. Fees were clear and very reasonable. I could easily make contact and ask any questions; I was never left wondering about my matter. It was clear to me for the whole journey that I was valued as a fellow human being in need of help.
My path to success began when a suffering friend recommended that I take my complex matter to Alvin Ngo at LHD. I make the same recommendation to you with every cell in my body.
With regards, Ross Lobbe
I cant recommend Alvin Ngo and his secretary Emily enough ! I called after not being able to work in my industry after injury to my hands ,Alvin was so helpful explaining what I could do .

Nothing was a problem to either of them ,

"LHD Lawyers are true experts in handling compensation cases. "Dear Philip and Biljana, I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your exceptional dedication and hard work during the settlement process for my car accident compensation.… More Your professionalism and support have been invaluable, and I truly appreciate everything you've done to ensure a favorable outcome.

During what was undoubtedly the most challenging times of my and my wife’s life, our solicitor, Alvin Ngo from LHD Lawyers, with the help of his assistant, Emily - did not give up on me….or my TPD claim....
After I was told ‘NO’ you will… More ‘NOT’ get it, Alvin provided invaluable support and they were nothing short of outstanding.
Alvin handled our case with the utmost professionalism and care and he really came through when we needed it most, his genuine care and empathy made a significant difference.
It was an emotionally exhausting case over a few years, with many complexities involved but his strategic thinking and bold advocacy helped me achieve a favorable outcome.
I am profoundly grateful for their exceptional service and the final result.
Thank you LHD Lawyers, Alvin and Emily!!
~ George & Lydia van der Walt
Dilan Kasturi demonstrates expertise and knowledge of the law in the Workers Compensation area which enabled him to get a positive result for me. Although my case is not yet over, I am writing because I want to express my sincere thanks… More for the way Dilan has respectfully interacted with my insurers to help overturn a decision by them that negatively impacted me. I felt like I was heard by Dilan and he was able to highlight the strengths in my case in a polite and respectful manner. I believe Dilan has exceptional communication skills aligning with genuine interpersonal skills and attention to detail. I highly recommend Dilan Kasturi.
I engaged LHD to lodge my Income Protection claim as I was mentally not capable of doing it myself and I am so glad I did. Senior Associate Michelle Chuong was my assigned solicitor and she was efficient, communicative and caring from… More the moment she contacted me. Michelle kept me up to date during the entire process and from the time she took charge of my claim it was processed and approved within two months. Michelle is currently in charge of my TPD claim and I know that I can concentrate on looking after myself while she deals with the Insurer and I need not worry about the process as I can completely trust Michelle and her team. I highly recommend Michelle for any insurance claim matter.
LHD Lawyers had done an amazing job with my case!. Alvin and Emily worked hard and swift on my case to get all my entitlements.
Thank you once again, Alvin and Emily! 😊
I highly recommend LHD Lawyers. I turned to LHD Lawyers after being injured at work and I was assigned Emily Pignone as my solicitor. Emily’s professionalism made this process run smoothly, she kept me informed and mad understanding and… More patient. Also her senior legal secretary Estelle was lovely. She promptly would return my calls and emails and kept me informed on any updates. They both made this process less stressful than I thought it would be. I thank them both.
Alvin, my solicitor, is a rare authentic human being who just so happens to be a lawyer with integrity and a human side that goes beyond professional care. Alvin provided me with an elite professional service informing me continuously… More of detail I needed to know without overwhelming me with the professional "stuff." Alvin and his Legal Secretary Emily, made sure my mental health was key in my legal journey, ensuring my voice was heard whilst making space for the emotional turmoil and then reassuring me of processes and things that needed to get done in a safe and supported environment. I am very grateful for the humanity Alvin and Emily brought to this challenging time.
Professionally, Alvin was able to ensure my legal and contractual rights were upheld in obtaining myself a substantial economic resolution. Alvin at no time made any promises he did not uphold nor provide over zealous unrealistic expectations on any outcomes or throughout the journey. Alvin played it straight, in a kind old fashioned gentleman fashion that I think is missing today, with updates of relevant and realistic expectations and planning. No false hope, instead measured expectations.
Alvin and Emily worked tirelessly behind the scenes, achieving an unimaginably positive outcome for my claim.
The comfort, positivity and grace Alvin brings to his communication has been the most warming positive experience in my situation that would have proven more stressful at any other firm.
The good news of my positive claim win was met with the joy I could feel in Alvin's persona of his true happiness for me. This was overwhelming to experience such connection and authentic investment from Alvin.
A terrific outcome, a wonderful team of Alvin and Emily who behave with authentic active true intention not to loose sight of the person, ensuring the client is not lost in the legal system as just a number. Humanity is paramount in this team.
Thank you Alvin and Emily. Thank you for caring for me during my legal journey. You ARE THE difference!
I had the best opportunity of being look after by Alvin Ngo in my case & his been nothing but fantastic all the way, keeping me informed with my case at all times 😊, his very knowledgeable, well mannered & very professional at what… More he does im very grateful for everything Alvin Ngo & the LHD Lawyers have done. This is a big help for my future thank you so much Alvin your an asset to the LHD firm, wish you the best for future cases mate take care.
Totally Outstanding Lawyers ..Lisa & Steph made us feel like human beings and not labrats like most Lawyers do ... their work was impeccable from start to finish . We were always kept up to date on a regular basis and the minute there… More was any news or changes the girls contacted us ... they are both amazing Ladies to deal with and I cannot recommend them highly enough.Thankyou both so very very much from the bottom of our hearts.G & R
LHD Lawyers have been a life saver for me. I did try another firm 1st, and they told me I didn't have a case. I felt like I was put into the Too Hard Basket. So I contacted LHD and in about 2-3 days, I had a response saying they could… More help me. I had contacted my Super funds prior to this, and asked about my Income protection, and they told me I didn't have any. After my 1st consultation, LHD did some searches, and they did find out that I did have Income protection. Why my super told me that to start with, I have no idea. They explained everything to me in a way that I could understand, and if I didn't, they would explain it a different way for me. Any questions I had were promptly answered, and they treated me as a person, not just a number. It took a few months to get everything happening, but once the ball got rolling, it was full steam ahead. It's great to know that I Lawyers I can contact if I need to, and who will help out with just a quick phone call or email.I would recommend LHD to anyone who needs help with an injury, super and anything else that may arise. The No Win, No Pay is excellent, cause otherwise I would not have been able to pay them if I didn't win. And I honestly don't know where I would of ended up without them.
The Team at LHD Lawyers are simply amazing - I had a serious back injury and I really didn't know what my rights or entitlements were - many teams many cases and 100% success rate - achieving results much higher than all or expectations-… More I can't thank everyone at LHD enough I'd recommend to anybodyThank you guys you changed our life ❤️
The best experience! No complaints at all.Jamie Nemme was the lawyer for our case and we found him to be not only professional but patient, courteous and caring.We never felt out of our depth as we were led through every step of the way.… More Thoroughly recommend lhd lawyers. Thankyou Jamie for your efforts over the last 4 years on our behalf.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Alvin Ngo and the result I got would not have been possible if Alvin didn’t take over my case. From my first contact, Alvin was nothing short of exceptional. He was always prompt with his responses,… More professional in his mannerism and highly knowledgeable about the process.Alvin took the time to explain every step of the process to me and answered all of my questions.I am extremely grateful for all of Alvin’s dedication and persistence, making the process so much smoother than I expected.Both Alvin and his assistant, Emily are true assets to the firm and I am grateful for all their help, thank you!
Hi my name is rachael and i aproched LHD LAWERS Sydney were i was introduced to my l was introduced to my lawer alvin and his assistant emily who worked with me to obtain my claim these guys never let down and kept incontact at all… More times i would highley recommend these to.

Had an amazing experience and outcome thanks to my solicitor Alvin and his secretary Emily. They went above and beyond to achieve the best result possible. Would recommend them in a heartbeat. Will never be able to thank them enough for… More their work.
Please be very careful of this companyI had an eye_xray going back.few years ago from a work injury on my right eye. All.i got was pain and suffering. It took me 3 days just to open my eye. I lost my job coes of this company.Do not believe… More anything he tells you it's a lie. They don't care. Ian gosney
Having a long term illness completely changed my life to say the least. I went from being a workaholic to struggling to be able to work. It affected my lifestyle, my relationships and my mental health. After 4 years of trying to “get back… More to work” I had to leave a long term career that I loved, which added insult to injury by placing a huge financial strain on my family.I reached out to LHD in desperation and was quickly placed under the care and support of Alvin NGO and Emily Ackerman to look at a TPD claim from within my superannuation.I can honestly say this has changed my life for the better!Alvin and Emily worked tirelessly for me by working with my Superfunds, my previous employer and countless Drs and Specialists to get me a truly wonderful outcome.They gave me peace of mind in an otherwise completely stressful situation, and, kept me clearly updated throughout the whole process.I highly recommend the services Alvin and Emily offer and would strongly encourage anyone in a similar position to reach out to them without hesitation.I would not have had such a positive outcome if I had of attempted this claim on my own, their knowledge and expertise is second to none.Thank you Alvin and Emily, I will never forget the positive impact you’ve made to my life!
Unfortunately, I can not recommend LHD. They submitted an incorrect medical review that they commissioned, which was riddled with obvious errors. From the basics of getting my name wrong, my mode of travel and distance travelled to the… More examination, to my responses to questions and my reactions to the physical examination during the consultation. LHD assured me that this would not have any material impact on my claim. A week before we went to the commission, I was asked where I obtained my bachelor of criminology despite not having one or ever stating that I did. During the hearing, when I was asked to consider the insurers' offer, LHD advised me that under the terms presented, I was entitled to ongoing physio treatment. After settlement, the insurer rejected any further treatment, sighting the flawed report. LHD lodged an appeal that was also rejected. LHD advised me that they were considering the next course of action. I never heard from them again. Despite other reviews stating that they are rude. I did not find that to be the situation with my dealings. They were polite in all my conversations. They simply made basic errors and provided misleading advice during settlement.
In a difficult time was a relief to have the professionalism and efficiency of a firm that not only helped me to understand my entitlements but move forward quickly with an outcome. Highly recommended firm.
I'm grateful to the support I received through LHD Lawyers in Sydney. LHD provide an accessible and pragmatic service to individuals navigating complex and challenging legal issues. LHD assisted me in achieving a very positive outcome,… More they are a professional legal service with a modern and accessible approach to communication and information delivery. ThanksStephanie and Lisa!
I can't put into words how incredible LHD lawyers are. From the day I contacted them, they have treated me like I was their only client. I was assigned Senior Associate Khushboo Kang and have never experienced anything like the service… More I received from her. Everything she said & did was with absolute confidence. I always felt that she was 5 steps ahead and ready for anything. Her personal nature also put me at ease on so many occasions. She achieved the most life changing result for my family and I.Thank you so much for everything you have done.
It has been an absolute pleasure having Alvin as my solicitor and Emily as the legal secretary. I couldn’t of asked for a better team with them both. Always going above and beyond for me & making sure I understand completely with what’s… More happening from start to finish. My brain injury I got I never knew I was entitled to any form of payout & thought I would have to live with being unwell and on a pension until I pass away. I can not thank Alvin enough for going to extra mile for myself & helping me. I’ve never thought I would go through something this traumatic in my life and to have Alvin and Emily on my side and in my corner has made life so much easier. Not only is Alvin a lawyer but he is also such a great listener, same goes for Emily. So please if you’re looking for a solicitor please trust me and go with Alvin & Emily, you will not be disappointed with you decision.Thank you Alvin & Emily for you help and making me a priority even though you’re both extremely busy. Just thank you 🙏🏼If I could give more starts I absolutely would ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Alana
Both Alvin and Emily went to all lengths to help me get the results I needed. I would highly recommend Alvin to anyone looking for legal representation. And Emily was always on point and very efficient in her communication with me. Definitely… More 5 stars here.
I would just like to say that my solicitor Alvin and his Legal Secretary Emily are just wonderful to deal with making everything easy for me to understand with my disability, making sure I was comfortable with everything before going ahead… More and explained everything to me clearly. It is truly a pleasure to work with them.
I used LHD lawyers for 3 of my claims, involving a TPD claim and early access to my super. I had Alvin allocated as my lawyer, and I can't commend him enough. We've been working together for about 3 years now, and due to the stress… More in my life I really wasn't able to manage this stuff myself anymore. Alvin was so thorough and clearly explained everything to me and was so good at what he does I gave him full reign of handling my affairs to which he ran with all for me, as I wasn't easily contactable due to my symptoms. He always has plenty of time, or made me feel that way, to re explain things to me, as we were dealing with 4 super companies at one stage. He is an asset to the company, I've worked in complaint resolution, with government stakeholders including representing my ex employer on behalf of VCAT for the past 20 years of my employment history so I'm familiar with customer service and what that entails and Alvin really is the perfect example of good, no excellent customer service. What he's done for me is life changing, and I can't thank him enough. If we were in the same state I'd go and see him in the office and thank him in person.Kind regards Lisa. Melbourne. Vic
After an injury at work I consulted with Alix Ryan and Jennifer Robinson regarding a claim as I felt Icare wasn't really invested in my recovery. These ladies were always easy to liaise with and always kept me up to date with the happenings… More of my case.Would highly recommend Alix and her team. Thank you very much.
My experience with LHD Lawyers and Alvin Ngo - Lawyer was not only simple and unbelievably fast but the personal attention I received from the very first day they returned my call to the last, can not be understated. I suffer from severe… More anxiety brought on by a progressive illness, so a process such as making a claim for TPD through my superannuation was extremely daunting and very overwhelming. Alvin's reassurance and honesty throughout was comforting and always full of encouragement, even when I asked silly questions or babbled on a little too much. Finally, all of the staff were brilliant, very thorough and always pleasant. A special thanks to Emily Ackerman who also provided me with her unwavering support. This successful outcome has changed my life and I owe a debt of gratitude to Alvin, he is simply wonderful. Thanks again.
I am not a person that leave reviews often. That being said, if someone happens to be in situation where there is a legal advice and help needed, LHD lawyers are the ones for you to contact and there is one particular solicitor - Alvin… More Ngo, who is simply the best!He has been representing me in the complex work claim and I have to admit that in my over 15years of working in professional services, I have never met more professional, dedicated, success-driven, patient and caring person, all in one, the perfect combo. I felt in good hands since our initial conversation, he has taken time to ensure I understand all the legalities, I felt I could reach out with my queries and seek explanation without feeling I am wasting his time, and most importantly he has driven my case to a successful outcome. His assistant Emily Ackerman has been a pleasure to deal with as well. This decision to be represented by Alvin Ngo as my solicitor has changed my life.
I used LHD lawyers for a TPD claim and early access to my super, Lisa was the lawyer appointed to me, she was very polite,understanding and proactive, the claim was completed in good time. I'm happy with the outcome and would highly… More recommend LHD Lawyers
After getting injured at work, I turned to LHD lawyers for help. I was lucky enough to get Alvin Ngo as my solicitor. He was always there for me when I needed him. He returned my calls and emails promptly. He listened to my questions and… More concerns. He was always honest and sincere. I really felt that he cared about me and my predicament. I would highly recommend Alvin if you're looking for a solicitor who genuine and cares about their clients.Alvin's secretary Emily Ackerman was also fantastic and always there when I needed help. She was always friendly on the phone and replied quickly to all of my emails.I am so grateful to have been able to have Alvin and Emily there to get me through this. Thank you so much.Jared
I was told by another law firm that I would most likely not be entitled to a one off last compensation payment unless I had an operation. Jaime at LHD lawyers was successful in claiming a last payment without me having to have an operation,… More which I was very apprehensive about having. I still have my injury but with his & his teams help I am very pleased with the outcome. I would highly recommend LHD lawyers.
I phoned LHD Lawyers after viewing their tv adv offering "no win,no pay". It was a perfect answer for me. From day one and throughout the whole process of claim for injuries LHD Lawyers, in particular, Philip Scroope and Secretary… More were very professional, helpful,caring and reassuring. I recommend them ,they will work with you, for you to achieve the best outcome possible.
I injured myself at work, after having to have surgery i had alvin ngo do my tpd claim, he was easy to talk to and straightforward he did exactly as he said he would do, it was all sorted out and completed, very impressed with the speed… More of the matter as it has become a great help for me and my family in this extremely difficult time of our lives.I'd definitely recommend using him for other's out there real fast and simple.
LHD LawyersOutstanding Lawyers so approachable always able to take a call or would return a call at their earliest convenience which was the same day.There App was so valuable with new technology to inform there valued clients of the progress… More of there personal case with a personal secure password.L H D Lawyers definitely value their clients needs and get a fair result.Thank you LHD Lawyers.
I contacted LHD Lawyers for a different matter. That matter had no validity, I had mentioned i was no longer working due to a brain disease. I was offered the assistance to see if I had a available TPD from my previous super. I was introduced… More to Alvin Ngo as my solicitor and Emily Ackerman as his secretary. The start of the process was well explained and I was made to feel very comfortable with them both and felt I was listened to and validated. There is always a mountain of information needed to be collected. This was done expediently and painless. I have been kept well informed of the progress of my claim. LHD Lawyers, Alvin Ngo and Emily Ackerman have won the case for me. I thought I would have to endure my disease with no dignity, but thanks to these guys I have a chance of quality of life. I urge you use LHD Lawyers if you think you have a chance cause they will find it for you.Man many thanks.Darius Peisley
I am extremely grateful for all the help I received from LHD Lawyers, and in particular, my TPD Solicitor, Emily Pignone, and her staff. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to be there with me throughout the journey.There were many… More times during the process that I was upset, and anxious, but it made a huge difference that Emily had an extensive knowledge of TPD, she was very personable, she took the time to listen to me, and would always make sure that I understood everything we were discussing.I truly appreciated Emily's empathy, and understanding of me as an individual, she always showed compassion, patience, and professionalism.I must admit that at first I was undecided, and hesitant as to whether to seek the assistance of a lawyer to help me with my TPD claim, but I am very glad that I made that call.I sincerely thank Emily for her assistance, and all of her hard work to get me a positive outcome with my claim.I have no hesitation in highly recommending Emily to anyone who needs assistance with a TPD claim.
Excellent experience, very satisfied with the outcome. Always very supportive from the beginning to the end. Keen to listen and always providing practical advice. Very professional in communication to make sure I understand everything.… More They kept me on the same page every time. They always tried to do the best for me and advise me which encouraged me that they are on my side, that they are taking care of me and looking after me. I am very happy with the outcome and highly recommend to everyone.
Well what can I say!I sought the services of LHD Lawyers for 3 x matters and was appointed Alvin Ngo and his team which included his secretary, Emily Ackerman, for my IP and TPD claim.My case was progressing slowly, with various hurdles… More along the way for about 12 months, maybe a little longer. Having been diagnosed with depression and anxiety from a work related injury, made this claim extremely daunting and I often felt very overwhelmed. Alvin, being the true professional he is, addressed all my concerns, explained over and over the processes I was not comprehending, reiterated processes through emails then again over phone conversations, to enable me to get my head around the processes and procedures. Alvin was so dedicated and committed to me throughout the entire process.Alvin’s secretary, Emily is a gem in her own right. She was always up to date and understood my case at any given time. Emily is a very caring person who has the ability to explain matters in a clear and concise manner.Both Alvin and Emily made this process as stress free as possible for me. I cannot thank them enough for the professionalism, humanity and care they showed towards me during this process.I highly recommend LHD Lawyers and in particular Alvin Ngo and his team for your Income Protection and TPD needs. I will be forever grateful for their commitment and dedication to the outcome, they received for me!Thank you!
Would highly recommend LHD lawyer ALVIN NGO, Alvin went above and beyond and continued to pursue my claim even when all hope was gone my best interest was always considered. Alvin was very supportive and professional within his services.I… More am truly thankful for all Alvin’s dedication and commitment to my case.I can’t thank Alvin enough but because of Alvin I now will be able to gain the ability of my independence and life.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🌟
I don't often leave reviews as I prefer to keep my opinions to myself. That said, under the circumstance, and for anyone that may find themselves in a situation where as a Lawyer may be needed, I guess that any support or advise, recommendation,… More is probably what you need and are looking for. This, I would venture to say is why you are here, looking through reviews.I have had a very challenging case over the last 2 years regarding a work related injury, and Alvin at LHD has gone above and beyond to push through many challenges that accompanied the claim.I have observed that Alvin is passionately client driven, with a persistent determination to do what is right. Providing advocacy and clear communication, in a space that to me has been full of uncertainty.He understood my situation, and has more than provided support. Professionalism, to put into a single word.In summary, I would certainly consider Alvin a strong asset of LHD, and would recommend to anyone.Daniel D.
I highly recommend the team at LHD. They were always available and fast to respond to any questions as well as transparent throughout the whole process. Thank you Lisa and Stephanie.
I had the pleasure of being referred to Mr Alvin Ngo and his team in Sydney regarding a superannuation issue I was experiencing after a severe injury at work. At all times Mr Ngo and his team were empathetic, showed promotion of positive… More mental health support when I needed it, and explained the process every step of the way. After a long time of feeling helpless and unheard it was a really positive experience to have such knowledgeable professionals on my side. Without their understanding and support my situation would have no doubt worsened. I can’t recommend Alvin Ngo and his team, or LHD Lawyers enough. They fight the good fight.
I wanted to shoutout Jamie Nemme at LHD Lawyers for being a big help in my situation. He was able to assist and simplify the legal tasks into a very straight forward and easy process. As a result, he helped alleviate pressure in what would… More have been a very stressful situation. Thanks Jamie!
I contacted LHD Lawyers to assist with my health situation at work.I was kindly advised by one of the assessors that I could have a potential TPD claim. My case was allocated to TPD Lawyer Alvin Ngo.Alvin took my case and from the date… More of contact, Alvin was professional and compassionate lawyer. He worked with me and explained in details each possible outcome of the case. He also kept me updated during every step and responded within 24 hours.Thank you, Alvin Ngo, for your professionalism.I will definitely be recommending your services to friends and family.Kind regards,Jacqueline Lam
5 stars because 10 isn't an option, Alvin and Emily have delivered the highest possible standard of service, always polite and helpful, the insurance company didn't make it easy but to Alvin's credit he got the claim over… More the line for a successful outcome in a matter where atleast 2 other lawyers had failed at achieving a successful outcome Alvin and the team at LHD pulled it off, LHD Lawyers highly recommended for your TPD and IP claims if you're needing assistance give them a call. I can now work on rebuilding my life thank you guys may your 2023 be a blessed with more success,Oliver.
Around 12 months ago I contacted L.H.D lawyers to see if I had a medical negligence case after a terminal illness diagnosis. I did not, however I was made aware of 2 claims against the insurance attached to my superannuation.Alvin Ngo… More and his assistant, Emily Ackerman were excellent, not only in their respective consumate professional expertise, but also in their very clear and comprehensive communication.Alvin successfully argued that my illness was impacting on my ability to work despite my diagnosis being nearly four years later. I don't understand legal process, but I believe that Alvin has wizard skills.I have no hesitation in recommending LHD Lawyers, and in particular, Alvin Ngo.Without Alvin's help, I would never even been aware that I evenhad a claim. Thank you so much, mate.
To Khushboo and Catherine Lsemonger I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you so much for your time, expertise and commitment on obtaining a successful t.p.d claim. I would not have been able to do it without your help. The… More staff were always helpful and kept me informed at all times in regards to all aspects along the way. Much appreciated.Mele L.
I am very grateful for the help I always receive from Alvin Ngo from LHD Lawyers. Since 3 years ago I have needed their services and as always the service exceeds my expectations. At any time I need Alvin he is always available to help… More quickly and a high level of professionalism.Thank you for always helping me.
Approximately three years ago, I got injured at my workplace and went through the most difficult time of my life. A friend told me to seek legal advice from LHD Lawyers and my case was accepted. LHD Lawyers allocated my case to a solicitor… More by the name of Mr Alvin Ngo.Alvin is absolutely brilliant at his work, and is always professional. Alvin has proven to be highly intelligent, and works incredibly hard by conducting due diligence and providing regular updates throughout the entire process.Alvin is by far the best solicitor I have ever dealt with and has delivered all of the required outcomes which we discussed during our very first consultation. I would highly recommend Mr Alvin Ngo to my friends and family as he has delivered outcomes which have exceeded our expectations. My family and I would like to take this opportunity to thank him and the entire team at LHD Lawyers for the delicate and technical work they have achieved.I would now like to thank Ms Emily Ackerman, Alvin’s secretary at LHD Lawyers. Emily has been absolutely awesome and incredible to deal with. She understood my case from the get go and understood the severe nature of my illness. As such, Emily was always ever so caring in her approach. Emily is always on top of her game, and every time I spoke with her, she knew exactly where things were at with my case, and often already knew the answers to my questions and what the next steps would look like. Emily is brilliant and explains legal matters in a clear and concise manner. Emily has also proven to be a hard worker, getting the job done efficiently and effectively.My family and I cannot thank you both enough for what you have done for me. Again, I would highly recommend Emily and Alvin to anyone who suffers an injury at their workplace.
I consulted LHD Lawyers and was referred to lawyer Alvin Ngo and his assistant Emily Ackerman, who both gave me further instructions with regards to proceeding with my income protection claim. Updates were regularly provided to me and I… More was always comprehensively informed of critical issues as they arose. Alvin offered objective views and I was able to make informed decisions as we proceeded.I could not be happier with the outcome. We settled the income protection claim, which has consequently restored my ability to live independently again.However, more importantly to me was the confidence that I had with Alvin and Emily as the months unfolded. It was evident that my best interests were always considered, and I had complete trust that I was being represented by the best.In my former occupation I have worked with many lawyers, (for over 25 years), in both criminal and civil jurisdictions, and Alvin’s abilities, knowledge, ethics and drive, are second to none.I am truly grateful for their dedication and commitment to my case. I could not recommend Alvin and Emily highly enough
My story began 9 years ago. LHD helped me with a great outcome in my compensation case in 2018 and more recently another successful result in my TPD and Income protection case. To John, Michelle and Estelle I thank you for everything that… More you have done to achieve the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend LHD as their professionalism is of the highest standard and their friendly manner also helps when you going through the process in decisions that ultimately affect your future. Thanks for all you have done...Lisa
My case at LHD Lawyers was looked after by John and his great team including Rachel, Claudia, and Ashleigh. All it took was one meeting and all my needs from then were met with professionalism and courtesy. Communication was highly efficient… More and clear. The interim result achieved for me by this team has been wonderful and relieves a great deal of stress. A very big thank you to John, Rachel, Claudia and Ashleigh. I highly recommend LHD Lawyers and this very focussed team.
I had the absolute pleasure of dealing with Jamie and his team. I was completely comfortable and felt that I was in more than capable hands. They went over and above for me and I highly recommend Jamie and his team. Thank you again!
LHD lawyers are the best compensation Lawyers out there, they have gone above and beyond for me, their handling my CTP claim, making sure I get the treatments I deserve and to compensate the neglect that the insurance company thrive on.They… More also handle my TPD claims which I didn't even know existed and of which I was eligible for. Meaning I got my super balance as well as a lump sum with my superfund.For the best results call LHD Lawyers, it was the best decision of my life.
I didn't get the chance to experience the pleasure of dealing with LHD from the start to end of my claim, however, I was directed to the legendary Jamie Nemme who helped me make sense of what I was dealing with, ultimately helping… More to come to a final decision of what was one of the hardest walks of my life. He is a thorough professional in an industry with many who arent. I wanted to personally thank him for his guidance, warmth, support, patience, empathy, help & time and cannot recommend Jamie enough.
Fantastic if there was 10 stars I would do Thank you Alvin Ngo my solicitor and Emily my secretary can't thank you enough so professional and quick. TPD and income protection both approved I would definitely refer anyone I know to… More you personally.
Alvin and Emily from LHD Lawyers have been very professional and extremely supportive while helping us navigate some difficult processes. They have also achieved an outcome that we didn't think possible. I would not hesitate in recommending… More them to anyone.
Where do I start I hurt myself at work nearly 3 years ago & after being feed up with the insurer I decided to ring LHD to seek some legal advice & luckily I did.I was fortunate enough to get a great solicitor in Alvin Ngo &… More his assistant Emily, Alvin run me through the process of proceeding with a TPD claim & requirements to qualify for a claim even though I was hesitant at the start I eventually rang Alvin after a few months & asked him to proceed with the claim.Things where starting to get to me especially financially I wasn't sleeping & nearly over edge a few times in the past 3 yearsat least with a win & a bit of money back in the bank my life hasbeen made a lot better with the great outcome that Alvin wasable to get for meI would especially like to thank Alvin for caring & taking time out regularly to keep me up to date all the way with the claim.The professionalism that he has shown along the way has been greatly appreciated.What the insurers put people through & dis-regards for peoples lives & situation is a disgrace really the whole system needs an overhaulAnyone wishing to proceed with a TPD or income protection claim I highly recommend you contact LHD Lawyer & have a conversation with Alvin NgoOnce again many thanks Alvin.Cheers Colin Waghorn
I cannot recommend Stephanie Small and her colleagues highly enough for the successful settlement my claim. Her knowledge, experience and empathy made the whole process much easier than I anticipated and I am so grateful for the outcome… More achieved.
Edit: after looking through your google reviews I have found that 50% of your reviews are also fake and bot accounts and friends and family.Warning to anyone thinking of using this firm, they will not assist you. They won't contact… More you. They go only for end pay outs. The end pay out is minimal and not worth the stress you go through. I went to another firm the pay out is half a million not 25k the new firm won't stop ringing me and organising things. Every bit of advise was wrong. I made a complaint and the director reviewed it and said it was good enough and they can't assist me. I begged for contact for someone to help. I almost lost my leg in an accident and these guys made me go through additional hell. Please be warned they are hopeless. Once they have the money funds approved they will not speak to you again and won't update anything that eventually tell you sorry we can't help. Trust me just go else where it will be done 10 xquicket and a better result.
LHD Sydney i.e. my solicitor Alvin Ngo and his assistant Emily Ackerman helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life!They were able to help me with my claim successfully with expediency, professionalism , skill and offered… More genuine support and care .I was treated with respect as an individual at all times, not just a number. I can’t thank them enough for their help and support with what can be a very difficult task with endless red tape .Alvin and Emily made the process as easy and stress free as possible . I’d recommend LHD for any of your compensation claim needs to everyone.Thanks to all at LHD especially Alvin and Emily 😊
I had the pleasure of having Alvin Ngo look after my personal claim. Unfortunately my claim stalled.. but Alvin kept pushing on, which ended in a good outcome. I found Alvin very easy to speak with and understand and just an all round… More nice guy.I would definitely recommend Alvin Ngo
I came across an Ad online for LHD Lawyers. It said " are you not working due to Injury or Illness, if you are contact us and see if you qualify for a TPD Claim"Well I'd never heard of TPD before and what I'd just read… More was my predicament exactly. Well I contacted LHD and it was smooth sailing from there on.Jesicca and Tracy handled my case and they were very professional, helpful, friendly and caring.Due to my illness there are times where I get foggy headed and I can have difficultly trying to speak, like forgetting words etc. With their patience and understanding we got through it all. In fact they make it quite easy with the paperwork and instructions.I'm in Melbourne and LHD are in Sydney, so everything was done by phone, emails and post everything went along nicely.My claim was approved and I am very happy, the money will be incredibly helpful.I appreciate the work LHD Lawyers put in and I wouldn't hesitate recommending LHD's services to anyone. You won't be disappointed.Sean Stubley.
I found LHD Lawyers to be so responsive and professional and very caring. They encouraged and helped me every step of the way through my cases. I could not have chosen a better law firm to represent my cases. They got me a life changing… More payout. A huge Thank you to the team at LHD. I HIGHLY recommend Alvin Ngo to anyone requiring a very professional Lawyer who gets the best outcomes for his clients.
Jamie was extremely personable, and empathetic throughout the entire process of my claim. His prompt response times, and detailed explanation of my claim left me feeling both reassured, and at ease throughout my entire case.
I found LHD Lawyers after some research, and following my initial meetings I was convinced of their outstanding reputation. Alvin Ngo represented me and he proved to be the perfect choice for my particular situation. My experiences with… More him were excellent and my claims proceeded quickly and efficiently; I have no hesitation in recommending Alvin and LHD to others. On numerous occasions Alvin exceeded my expectations with his dedication and skill in handling very complex and difficult periods – both legally and personally. There were a number of times when he went to great lengths to ensure that the right decisions were made, documents were accurate, and that I understood the context. Everything proceeded smoothly and Alvin guided me through various stages to avoid any problems. A number of my confidants commented on the exceptional nature of Alvin’s engagement and care. He always gave me the feeling that I can count on him to come through regardless of the circumstances; also, his team was fully committed to me at all times. At every stage Alvin used a kind of foresight that only comes from experience and a strong work ethic. Engaging with Alvin and LHD has been one of the best professional experiences I have had; I was certain that I would achieve a successful outcome.
I found LHD lawyers very efficient, caring , and professional. At all times the Khris had my best intentions at the forefront.I would recommend LHD to anyone.
I found LHD Lawyers to be so responsive and professional and very caring. They encouraged and helped me every step of the way. I could not have chosen a better law firm. I was completely informed of everything that was happening and it… More was explained in detail so I totally understood. They got me a fantastic payout and enabled me to start my life again without a hiccup. Thank you LHD. I HIGHLY recommend you to anyone in difficult circumstances.
Disappointing to say the least. As with the other one star review I read, I gather I just crossed the wrong desk. Others have clearly had the opposite experience. I received a very basic email informing me the firm has no interest in proceeding… More with my claim- mind you this was on the same day I had arranged with the secretary I spoke with to forward the team my complete diagnosis in relation to the injury sustained. I emailed back for feedback and was stonewalled; told no other explanation would be supplied. My experience was one of time wasting, dismissive attitude, perceived incompetence as well as weak communication between staff potentially. Just what a badly injured person at the hands of a negligent landlord needs; further mental anguish - thanks for the memories :( less greed and television adverts, more helping the little guy the way you market yourselves to do!
When i became unable to work anymore lawyer Khushboo Kang and her assistant Catherine Isemonger, have excelled in their abilities to achieve a settlement from my super insurance company and succeeded in spite of me being told that my insurance… More had expired. Not only did they secure the maximum payment on my behalf but in an extension of their services, they also found 3 more achievable claims from lost policies I was not aware existed and i am confident that they will continue to impress as they have already exceeded my expectations! I strongly recommend using LHD Lawyers to assist in finding money that you are entitled to.Thanks again Khushboo and Catherine, you have allowed me to survive as a pensioner and i am confident they will continue to do so.Nicola DelamereRussell IslandQueensland
Big thank you to Khushboo and Catherine! They helped me win all my TPD and Income Protection claims. They worked really hard to get the best outcome for me and it’s changed my life. I highly recommend getting in contact with the team.… More Thank You!
I don’t really do these kind off post but here goes.I found LHD Lawyers on social media just why not give it a go. Alvin an his team are very outstanding have no hesitation in recommending Alvin an his team awesome
Update again! - Well kids, it's been 3.5 yrs since my injury and I can't praise Alix and her team enough. The case is finally settled with a positive outcome for all. I can't begin to tell you how much I'd recommend… More LHD. Professional, personable, empathetic, and driven are just beginner descriptions of how this team operates. Thank you thank you THANK YOU team.Update of former review - now that I am in touch with Alix, I can say my confidence is fully restored. Seems some miscommunication and personal matters were happening so all is well.She is very professional, knowledgable, and helpful!
I’ve been working with Alvin from LHD, and I must say he’s very hardworking and responsive. He does his job very professionally and I would certainly recommend working with him. Keeps me up to date with everything that’s going on with my… More case. Really happy that I found Alvin to take my case.
I was appointed LHD Lawyers through an independent agency after enquiring how to access my TPD through my Superannuation. At first I was a little concerned with dealing with a Sydney firm when I was in WA.My team, Alvin and Emily, were… More great to deal with.Unfortunately my Super accessor was an absolute nightmare to deal with, although Alvin tried to assure me they are not all like that, I am glad I had Alvin to intervene for me.Every time I emailed Alvin, over the smallest concern I had, he phoned me back promptly.Alvin and Emily kept me up to date every step of the way, and although my case was a very drawn out (due to my super assessor), I am very thankful it is over. Thank you so much Alvin and Emily.
LHD Sydney handled my caseThe team of Matthew,Natasha and Jamie Lee.I had no idea how all this system worked,they explained everything that was going to take place and made me feel very comfortable. My experience was the best they are… More a caring and very professional team and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a legal team that is in you're corner and that's fights fir your rights. Thanks again LHDJanine Goodall
Thanks for your professionalism in dealing with my worker’s compensation case. From the moment I approached LHD to represent me in 2016 for injuries incurred while working. They were encouraging for me to pursue my claim. Although it took… More four years to resolve LHD were always on hand to pursue my enquires. Thanks for a job well done.
It was a pleasure to have Kris, Paul & Tracy assisting me with my claim. They communicated with me through the whole process & got the result we were after. Thank you so much for your professionalism, compassion and support through… More your my claim.
Looking for a lawyer who possesses these wonderful human qualities of kindness, compassion, attentiveness and first class professionalism?Well look no further than Alvin Ngo from LHD Lawyers in Sydney. Alvin is a man of great experience… More and he will treat you with patience and empathy, thus ensuring a high probability of a successful outcome in dealing with your legal issues.I personally have been assisted by Alvin in a number of legal matters, all which were resolved by Alvin’s patience and perseverance.
I wish to express my gratitude to Alvin & Emily for their work on settling my TPD claim in such a supportive & professional manner.There efforts made for an efficient and seamless resolution with great results. I could not be more… More appreciative of your efforts. Regards Michael
Lhd lawyers helped me after I was in a hit and run accident, not only did they get me the most out of a pain and suffering compensation pay, but they also helped me with a tpd claim which has helped me and my future more then I can explain,..… More and just to make LHD lawyers even better,.. no win, no fee, and if you win, they don't take a ridiculous amount from your pay! I would recommend LHD lawyers to anyone!
Excellent experience with LHD Lawyers kept me well informed and went above and beyond for a very positive outcome thankyou to Michelle, Estelle, Khushboo & Catherine I will highly recommend LHD lawyers in the future.
The team at LHD were easy to deal with the whole way through my case. They were professional, always available, and made the process a smooth one. I would definitely recommend them, especially John Abouchrouche and his team, who were… More so great in my case.
LHD were extremely supportive and kept me informed every step of the way with my public liability claim. The staff were very approachable and thorough. I am thankful for their comprehensive reports and explanations.... and am happy to recommend… More this very reputable firm.
After reading a few reviews, I must have been assigned the wrong lawyer. She took no interest in my mental health or any aspect of my case. I ended up having to change law firms and now I'm fully supported, things are being done and… More I'm being heard. Approaching LHD worsened my psychological injury.
Having been commissioned by LHD to photograph their team, I had the privilege of meeting the entire Sydney team (albeit briefly), I can’t recall coming across so many genuine and approachable people in one workplace. Egos are checked in… More at the door here so you can feel assured of an environment that is professional, welcoming, and cares about others. This is exactly the feeling I’d want if engaging a law firm to go into bat on my behalf.
Thank you LHD Lawyers for providing a confidential service Alvin and Emily have been professional and helpful to get all my matters done successfully Thank you again I will be recommending your services in the future
I had the pleasure of meeting two very wonderful ladies from LHD - Khusboo and Catherine. It was a difficult process, but they were so supportive every step of the way. There were so many times when things were just too overwhelming for… More me but they both stepped up and went far and beyond to ensure that I was okay. I will always remember their kindness and their patience. I can think of no one I'd rather have on my side. Thanks again.
Recently my claim has been gone through by Alvin Ngo and he did a very good job, making sure I was supported with my case. Emily Ackerman was also very helpful and kind.
I was a client of Emily Pignone for around 9 too 10 months.From day 1 Emily had shown me top priority and handled me with aplomb professionalism.For a lawyer of such young age she is ahead of her time by the way her calmness and quintessential… More decision making combining with her patience with me not only by phone but by email as well, as I am not adept behind the computer.I would have no problems recommending Emily to anyone as I am of the opinion that she is one of if not the best young lawyer in Australia.My advice to the senior lawyers and partners of LHD is too fastrak Emily to the front of the queue where she would no doubt shine the brightest.Also I would like to pay homage to Emily's assistant Emily Ackerman, who was also a mountain of help too me.Thankyou again too LHDAnd especially Emily Pignone.RegardsStay SafeBrad
Jamie Nemme and Shaylee Carl have been assisting my husband with his Workers Compensation claim since 2017.Its good to have someone who understands you, will listen to you and has your back. This is one lawyer who is really there to help,… More and does not treat you like a number. I cannot recommend Jamie enough, he is caring and considerate, and will always take the time to help answer any questions you have. Both Jamie and Shaylee are an asset to the company and we are so lucky to have found them. He makes the company approachable and has your best interests at heart. Thank you so much for your help these past four years.

I contacted LHD Law to seek advice in a no win/no fee case. They were professional, courteous, and did an amazing job, securing for me compensation well beyond my expectations.

A friend had previously tried to settle their claim with another Australian compo law firm who basically treated their case like a number at the bottom of the priority pile.They were basically ready to settle for nothing until they were… More recommended by a friend to LHD.

Got questions about making a claim? You’re not alone. Here are some of the most common things people ask us. Still unsure? Get in touch, we’re here to help.
I was injured working in Ballarat manufacturing, healthcare or aged care — what can I claim?
Ballarat workers in manufacturing, healthcare, aged care, education and government are covered by WorkCover Victoria. Common Ballarat claims include musculoskeletal injuries from lifting and repetitive work (especially in aged care and hospital settings), machinery injuries in manufacturing, slip-and-falls and psychological injuries from workplace stress or bullying. WorkCover pays weekly compensation, medical costs and permanent impairment lump sums, with common law damages available where employer negligence caused or contributed to the injury.
What if my car accident happened on the Western Highway or Midland Highway?
Victoria’s TAC scheme covers motor accident injuries anywhere in the state, including the Western Highway, Midland Highway, Sunraysia Highway and Glenelg Highway. Regional highway crashes often involve fatigue, wildlife strikes, heavy vehicles or interstate drivers — the cause and severity affect what’s claimable. The TAC pays no-fault statutory benefits regardless of fault, and a common law claim may apply on top if another party was negligent and your injury meets the ‘serious injury’ threshold.
What is a 'serious injury' for a TAC common law claim?
Under the Transport Accident Act, a ‘serious injury’ is either a whole person impairment of 30% or more (assessed once your injury has stabilised), or an injury formally certified as ‘serious’ by the TAC or by a court. Meeting this threshold unlocks a common law lump sum — for pain and suffering, past lost earnings and future economic loss — on top of your no-fault TAC statutory benefits. Most serious injury claims resolve through negotiation.
How long do I have to lodge a TAC claim in Victoria?
You generally have 12 months from the date of the accident — or from when the injury first became evident — to lodge a TAC claim. The TAC may consider claims made between 12 months and 3 years if there’s a reasonable explanation for the delay. A common law claim must usually be issued within 6 years. Children have until their 21st birthday. Early lodgement protects your access to treatment, income support and impairment benefits.
Do I have to travel to Melbourne for my Ballarat compensation claim?
No. Our Ballarat team handles claims from our local office, and most of your case can be managed by phone, video and email. Medical assessments are arranged at locations convenient to you across western Victoria — Ballarat, Bacchus Marsh, Ararat, Daylesford or Creswick. If a hearing is required — rare for most matters — we’ll prepare you carefully. Western Victorian clients don’t need to travel to Melbourne for specialist personal injury legal advice.
