DO YOU NEED HELP WITH AN ACC DISPUTE?

 

ACC procedures and medical evidence are complex. We can help you understand the process, and represent you at your review hearing or at the District Court.

You might be thinking, "how do I challenge an ACC decision?" or "how much do ACC lawyers charge" and perhaps you're not even sure how specialist legal help can assist you if ACC denies your claim. 
 

How we've helped our clients:  
 
  • Disputes related to weekly compensation,
  • Attendant care,
  • Treatment injuries,
  • Lump sum and/or
  • Independence allowances,
  • Surgery declines,
  • levy disputes,
  • ACC injury payout
  • Or home modifications 


 
Important: We're not legal aid lawyers

Gibson Sheat is not a legal aid provider. If you are eligible for, or have already received legal aid for your ACC dispute, we recommend seeking a legal aid lawyer.
