About us
Our mission is simple but unique – help you save money on your legal fees.
Unlike other personal injury law firms in Queensland, we do the work cheaper, and charge based on where your claim resolves, not as an ongoing bill.
Our work is still done on a “No Win No Fee” basis, so you’re never out of pocket, but we do it smarter, and without the price tag.
Be smart, claim wise.
We’re on your side
Because our fees are so low, our lawyers don’t have daily billing targets like most firms.
This means that you don’t have to worry about endlessly racking up expensive legal fees if you have questions for us, or need extra support or guidance.
Instead, we’re happy to chat, advise, and give you the personal injury legal service that you deserve.
We care
At Claimwise, we understand that losing up to 50% of your compensation money to legal fees just adds to the stress of your injury. That’s why we’re trying to make “Bill Shock” a thing of the past.
Be smart, claim wise.
Our Values
People
First. Always.
Passion
We do things differently because we believe in what's right.
Transparency
Advice you understand, and insights to make you smarter.
Partnership
Because good relationships lead to great results.
Alex Bassingthwaighte
Founder, Principal
I’m the founder and principal solicitor of Claimwise. I’ve been in and around the Personal Injury field for over 6 years, working in both small and nationally-sized law firms.
I started Claimwise so that I could disrupt the legal industry by providing a genuinely low-cost legal service that offers my clients more in the hand than traditional law firms.
In our first year, I’m proud to say that we took on 10 clients, resolved 3 matters, and saved those 3 clients over $60,000 in legal fees. It’s a great start, and our future is bright!
Outside of Claimwise, I’m also the Queensland Personal Injury Legal Writer for LexisNexis®, a global leader in providing practical legal guidance to law firms around the world.
Outside of that, you’ll generally find me wiping out on my surfboard around the Coast or in places like Papua New Guinea.
