Helping injured people in Kingston

Kingston is one of Canberra's oldest suburbs and one of its liveliest, with the Green Square shops, the Kingston Foreshore apartments, restaurants and bars, and the Old Bus Depot Markets. It sits right next to Fyshwick, so our office is only a few minutes away.

Kingston's cafes, bars, markets and apartment buildings mean we often see slips, trips and falls in venues and on footpaths, hospitality workplace injuries such as burns, cuts and lifting injuries, construction injuries on residential projects, and pedestrian and cyclist accidents around the foreshore and Canberra Avenue.

Areas we cover here: Kingston, the Kingston Foreshore, Barton, Griffith, Narrabundah and Fyshwick next door.

Slips, trips and falls

If you were hurt by a hazard that a business, landlord or the ACT Government should have fixed or warned you about, you may have a public liability claim. Take photos and ask for CCTV to be kept, as it is often overwritten within days.

Kingston injury claim FAQs

I slipped at a restaurant on the Kingston Foreshore. Do I have a claim?
You may, if the venue knew or should have known about the hazard and did not fix it or warn you, and it caused your injury. Report it to the venue, take photos, get witness details and ask for CCTV to be kept. Notice requirements and a general three-year time limit apply.
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Kingston cost?
We run personal injury claims on a no win, no fee basis. Your first conversation is free, there are no upfront fees, and if your claim is not successful you do not pay our professional fees. You get a written costs agreement before we start.
Is there a time limit to make a claim in the ACT?
Yes. The general time limit to start court proceedings for a personal injury in the ACT is three years, but many claims have much shorter deadlines for giving notice or lodging forms, especially workers compensation and motor accident claims. Get advice as early as you can.
