What recent reviews say

Strong advocates when engaged: staff like Tricia Wong, Daniel Stojanoski, and Andrea McNamara earn consistent praise for compassion and thoroughness, with clients describing transformative outcomes in workers comp and injury claims. Yet the firm's record is uneven. Complaints cluster around neglected cases, infrequent updates, and class action participants feeling poorly informed despite final payouts. Some clients report being passed between solicitors; others wait weeks without contact. The firm clearly works well for those who land with the right lawyer, but experience varies sharply.

Slater and Gordon handles personal injury, workers compensation, medical negligence, criminal injuries, and employment law across Perth Metropolitan. Their website lists no-win-no-fee arrangements, and several reviews name specific staff who drove results. The tension: five-star clients feel rescued and supported, while one-star clients describe abandonment. Those considering them should expect inconsistency and ask to confirm who will handle their case.

Best for: Workers compensation and personal injury claimants willing to discuss their assigned lawyer upfront before committing.
Think twice if: Class action participants should expect long delays and minimal net returns; cases may be neglected without active follow-up from you.
