John Vandeleur and his team provided amazing and clear support at every step throughout the course of pursuing compensation after being in a car accident. John brilliantly selected the best Barrister for my matter and facilitated achieving a great outcome at the compulsory settlement conference. From the outset, I found VBR's 30%-fee-cap-guarantee very appealing. I was even more impressed that the final legal costs charged were less than 21% of the total settlement. You can proceed confidently with VBR knowing that they only charge reasonable costs incurred.

Hi I transferred my skin related claim for compensation form another firm to VBR Lawyers because Shaun Ryan was very successfully with a claim he did on behalf of my late mother, I believe that successful helped Mum to live longer and gave a better last few years. From the time I changed over to vbr Lawers there team was straight onto my case and with in about 5 weeks I had money in my bank. This has changed my life, I have a more positive altitude towards the disease and my chances of living a lot longer. Because of that and hopefully with help of my great Doctors and new science and advance in medicines I will beat the decease and living a long happy life, So a great big thanks to Shaun Ryan and his wonderful team at vbr Lawyers They are the Lawyers that really care about you.

Our family had a high level of professionalism from Zach and his team in successfully winning a compensation case for workplace exposure to our now late father. The case not only provided closure to our fathers otherwise disease of unknown origin to a disease where we could successfully receive the appropriate compensation and guide treatment moving forward. Our family express the sincerest gratitude to VBR for their assistance in our case.

Eddie Bland

Greg and the firm will always aspire to deliver a strong outcome for their clients with dignity and respect. When in a position of vulnerability after a traumatic experience you need to have a hardworking team behind you . I can personally say that this team delivers that .

Thomas Hawkey

We could not be more impressed at the professionalism and genuine care from Greg, Ray, and the team at the Corinda office. Their outstanding knowledge and ability to clearly communicate throughout the entire case left us feeling confident and at ease in what was a difficult period. I would highly recommend their services to friends and family.

Jeanette Scarborough

Thankyou so much very happy with the outcome

Jordi Beltri

Where do i begin, I ended up with a lung disease and was recommended to contact VBR lawyers. From the first moment I met with Shaun and Zac I knew I was in good hands. They have exceeded my expectations of what a lawyer was and I can not recommend them enough!! The whole team worked together professionally to get the best outcome for me. They have the highest intentions for their clients and its not about how much money they put in their own pockets. They take time to explain everything to you and are always available when you have questions. I've been with them the last 2.5 years and they are nothing but the best!!

Lisa Dunjey

The team at VBR have been amazing !! They were recommended to us when we were looking for advice after my husbands silicosis diagnosis. It has been a hassle free process, they were professional and approachable and if it wasn't for them I don't know where we would be . HIGHLY RECOMMEND 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Beau Seiffert

Greg and his team are exceptional. They took great care of me as their client and guided me through the process. Thank you so much for your hard work I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

Cassidy Bond

Zach and the entire VBR team are more than exceptional! I was very lucky to have them on my side, they are friendly and professional. Highly recommend!!

Brendon McMahon

I can’t thank Greg and ray and their lovely staff for all the hard work and effort that went through for me thanks guys highly recommended

Tracey Magee

Having never had to use Compensation Lawyers before, I was unsure of what to expect. However Zach and his team made the whole process painless, and kept me informed every step of the way. I was very happy with the outcome, and would definitely recommend VBR Lawyers.

Kate Crewe

After having a car accident in 2020 and suffering from injuries after I was so unsure on the process for compensation (and pretty overwhelmed and terrified to be honest!) I saw an ad for VBR and thought I'd have a meeting to see how they were. That's when I met Beth and she was the perfect person to guide me through this. She was so calm and helpful throughout, not at all like the horror stories or scary lawyers on TV shows, I never once felt like I was just another number. I was constantly kept updated with things and felt so relaxed knowing I was being looked after. I honestly cannot recommend her enough.

VBR Lawyers absolutely changed my life. I was going through the most darkest time of my life due to a psychological injury caused by a government employer. I was not only treated terribly by my employers but even worse by Work cover QLD to the point where I questioned continuing to live or ending it all . When I had finally given up hope of any justice, Zack and Beth were there to support and encourage me to keep going. VBR are genuine people that care for their clients and will do the absolute best to help you. Beth De Laurence fought by my side and we won. She is a true warrior!

Chad Wheeler

Beth and her team at VBR could not have been more professional with my case. The communication and care with organising the process was above and beyond. I felt assured from the start that I was in good hands. Could not recommend VBR enough for there professionalism.

Graham Roughley

Many thanks to Sean Ryan and his dedicated team for all the hard work they put into my compensation claim. The outcome was very successful. No hesitation at all in recommending vbr Lawyers.

After a horrific workplace incident that nearly took my life walking into the VBR office at Burleigh Heads turned out to be an absolute godsend. Right from the get go Sean and Zac put me at ease and filled me with confidence to go forward and set things right. Over the course of my case, the mountains of legal jargon was condensed and put into plain English for me every step of the way. Zac was a real friend to me throughout the whole process with nothing left unexplained and no option left unexplored. With the matter put to bed now and coming away with an excellent result I cannot thank Zac, Desrae and the rest of the team at VBR enough. I'd give 10/5 stars here if I could. Thank you so much 🙏🏼

Deborah McEwen

I would like to thank Beth and the team at VBR lawyers, Burleigh for their hard work & professional advice, skills & just genuine care during my claim.. I can not speak highly enough of Beth, Desrae and the team for the care, guidance & support they showed throughout by always keeping me updated & making sure I knew what was happening & why. I would 100% recommend Beth & the team at VBR Lawyers Burleigh Heads as I couldn’t be happier with both the way I was treated like family, and my outcome ….. THANK YOU VBR LAWYERS …. 10+/10 Debbie McEwen

Steven Keen

VBR lawyers are unmatched and in their own league I was referred to VBR lawyers by a friend almost three years ago. Throughout the years of my claim I had numerous meetings, phone calls and emails. The team ensured I was informed every step of the way and that I understood all correspondence, they never hesitated to assist or spend the extra time where required. I predominantly engaged with Zach and Desiree who I can not speak highly enough of. Being diagnosed with silicosis was hard news to comprehend however having the support and guidance from both Zach and Desiree was vital to my well-being and made the legal aspect of my claim pain free. They made the effort to build a personal relationship ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. From the beginning to the end VBR lawyers consistently provided exemplary service. I would definitely recommend VBR Lawyers services.

Dan Boreham

Needing to make a serious compensation claim was one of the scariest things I could have imagined. At the time my only experience with lawyers was seeing them in TV shows or reading horror stories online, so naturally I was very anxious about the whole situation. I was very happy after calling and explaining my situation to be greeted by such a warm, down to earth and friendly team. These situations are terrifying and feeling comfortable with and supported by the people handling them is paramount to alleviating the stress that comes with it. Dealing with VBR has been nothing but a pleasure in an otherwise dire situation over the last few years and I couldn't be happier with not only the outcome, but how I was treated throughout. I couldn't thank these guys enough for that. 10/10

Milano Imai

After recently working with VBR Lawyers, I cannot recommend Beth highly enough. She was very professional, understanding and supportive throughout the whole process. Beth's caring and calming nature made what would usually be quite a stressful situation feel a lot more manageable and I am very thankful for the wonderful team they have there!

Louis Deck

Just want to give a big!! shout out to Sean, zack, Beth, Desrae and the hole Vbr team. The professionalism and dedication is second to none the guidance and support they show always keeping me updated and making sure i understood what was happening and genuinely caring about what i was going through. I definitely recommend the Vbr Lawyers team on the Gold Coast to be in your corner !!

Chloe Eastburn

Zach, Sean and the team have been fantastic in supporting us navigate such an overwhelming situation. They have been professional, empathetic and transparent with us through the entire process. Zach has communicated with us through every step and ensured we were always well informed. Hopefully we won’t need their services again, but Zach is the first person we would call if we found ourselves in another unfortunate situation.

Rick Turpin

I can’t speak highly enough of Zach and Desrae and the team at vbr they went above and beyond to get me the best outcome so professional and always communicating with me great service thanks again

Andrew Saunders

All the professionalism of a larger firm for simply less outlays. Beth is fantastic with a perfect balance of being down to earth while staying focussed with a professional approach and that goes for all the staff. VBR has a kind and caring approach and you certainly won't feel like a number but more part of a family.

Leanne Zurvas

Good people

Ling Zhang

Hope you dont' need a lawye. But if you do, I highly recommend the lawyer Beth in VBR and her diligent team. Beth and her team demonstrate empathy, they are responsive and efficient. They provide top quality work to and achieve the desirable outcomes for clients. They are the trustworthy lawyers with great value for money. A big thank you to Beth, Olivia and your team!

Ivan Blake

Kendall Stewart

From the moment we stepped into their office, we were made to feel welcome. The consultation process put us at ease in what was a very stressful event we had to relive. They were sensitive and very professional in setting out what they needed from us to best support the process. They did all the leg work and were transparent from the outset. Highly recommend all of the staff at VBR.

Sheilann Crossingham

We couldn’t recommend VBR highly enough. They supported us through some of our toughest moments to date with empathy, skill, professionalism, integrity and genuine care. We felt confident in putting our trust in their abilities, experience and knowledge and were not disappointed. The team are very approachable, dedicated, thorough, responsive, highly skilled and talented. Can’t thank VBR enough!

Neil Donaldson

John and the team at VBR did a fantastic job of finding the information from more than 50 years ago, which was required to prove my claim of brief employment by a company which no longer exists, which justified my claim for compensation for a mesothelioma diagnosis. I believed proving my 3 week school holiday employment in the early1970's was a lost cause, but VBR used their expertise to find the evidence required, to prove me wrong. My family and I will be forever indebted to John the team at VBR.

Aaron Norman

The team at VBR lawyers were amazing. I’d like to sincerely thank Zac, Desrae & Charlton for their professionalism and compassion throughout this process of obtaining my TPD insurance through my superannuation fund. This was not an easy undertaking for myself or VBR lawyers. However through diligence and a sound understanding of what was required, they were successful. They are not your run of the mill solicitors who are just chasing your money, they actually care about your well being. . I’d highly recommend their services to any person/s who require help with any claim to which they are entitled to. Thanks again guys for your help!!! Regards, Aaron

Thank you so much helping me throughout my case. I would highly recommend Zach Samuels and the VBR team. Thank you Attila.

Mark Colefax

Communication was fantastic and Vbr lawyers produced an exceptional result for me. Very proficient and knowledgeable. Highly reccomended

Krissi Hamilton

We cannot recommend Sean and his team highly enough. We were referred to him and decided with trepidation, to accept his advice after a previous painful legal experience. We can only encourage you to entrust your compensation claim with him. At a time that is full of stress around medical issues, the last thing we needed was an added layer of legal stress. Sean, you delivered on your representations in full and in an amazing time frame. We were kept informed at every stage of the process and at all times felt that the decisions we made were based on advice based on our best interests. We cannot thank you enough

Brad Alexander

Greg, Emma and the team did a fantastic job, very professional & thorough. They were happy to explain each stage of the process and break down the jargon. I would highly recommend the team at VBR Lawyers.

Luke Buckley

I'm so glad I called VBR. I honestly thought all lawyers were thieves but their bill for the work they did over nearly 4 years was less than half what we expected it to be. In a time when you are vulnerable you need honest people by your side and that's what you'll get. I praise them for their honesty, professionalism, communication and thoroughness, they were genuinely fantastic. At all times I felt they had my interests at hand and not their back pocket. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Caroline Neves da costa

I can not recommend Beth and the rest of the team at VBR Lawyers enough. They showed authentic care for me and made me feel comfortable at all times.

Kate Barrell

If you need legal representation for any injury case, then absolutely go with VBR. Zach and Desiree took on my case (from a motor vehicle crash) after two other firms Turned me away. Right from the start they were supportive, professional and kept me informed every step of the way. They were able to settle the matter in a little over 12 months, and in the process obtaining a settlement well in excess of what was expected. The entire process was smooth, seamless and pretty much stress-free as they really did all of the hard yards. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough. If I ever needed any form of legal assistance in the future, I can unreservedly say that VBR would be my only choice. Thanks for everything.

"I cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism, personal service and friendly experience with VBR. Beth and the staff were absolutely amazing from the beginning to end and achieved a wonderful result . Having endured a terrible experience with a law firm in the past I was very cautious about seeking help again but could not have found a better law firm. I without hesitation recommend VBR for a motor vehicle claim". Thank you to all the team .

Kate Barrell

I can’t speak highly enough of Zach and the team at VBR. They took on my case after another law firm stuffed it up, and I had been turned away by other firms as a result. They were professional, caring and supportive throughout, keeping me up to date the entire journey. They achieved a result that far exceeded our expectations. These guys care about what is ‘right’. They put their heart and soul into it for me. Completely grateful to have them on my side. .I thoroughly recommend them.

After several months of battling my insurance company I attempted to seek out legal advice to assist with a TPD claim that I was making zero progress with. It was incredibly stressful and I had no idea what I was doing. I began by contacting a few big named law firms that “specialised” in tpd claims. I was having so much trouble speaking to an actual lawyer (not a paralegal or junior) about the claim and getting someone to get the ball rolling. In addition to that when presented with their fees my stomach dropped! I couldn’t (and still can’t) believe how much they wanted to charge either in a fixed fee rate with their “no win no fee” structure or pay as you go. It was extremely upsetting. Then someone recommended Greg from VBR Lawyers. From the first conversation I had with Greg he started actioning my claim and met with me for a thorough discussion. He treated me like I was his number one priority from the beginning and that didn’t change through the whole process. Not 4 months later from our original discussion has my claim been successful thanks to Greg’s expertise, professionalism and efforts. I was also (pleasantly) surprised at his fees finding them MORE than reasonable and had my claim not been successful I wouldn’t have had to pay anything. The peace of mind that came with having someone so knowledgeable on my side that dealt with all the correspondence was incredibly relieving. Greg and his team are worth their weight in gold! I couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you Greg - we are eternally grateful for what you’ve done for us.
