Segelov Taylor client Tony Biddle discusses the process of making a claim in respect of his condition of mesothelioma.
Peter Hall contracted mesothelioma in early 2022. He was exposed to asbestos while working as a lagger soon after he migrated to Perth in the 1960’s. He instructed Tanya Segelov to act for him.
In this video Peter and his wife Brenda speak about their experience of making an application for compensation.
Mr Gray developed mesothelioma as a result of his exposure to asbestos while transporting asbestos pipes in his early years and also as a result of working with asbestos sheets during home renovations. Mr Gray speaks of his experience working with Segelov Taylor Lawyers.
Dear Tanya,
We would like to let you know how thankful our family is to have engaged such an experienced & knowledgeable lawyer to represent Leon in his mesothelioma case.
From our very first conversation & throughout the entire process you always treated Leon with the utmost respect & kindness. You kept us informed every step of the way & it was very obvious by the way you handled the final negotiations, that you have had many years of experience.
This is an extremely traumatic & devastating time in our family & as much as is possible, the outcome you achieved has helped ease the financial burden.
We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending your company to anyone who finds themselves faced with this Asbestos induced tragedy.
We contacted Segelov Taylor Lawyers after they were recommended to us as experts in the area of asbestos.
On our first meeting all my family were very impressed with the professionalism and expertise Tanya showed us. It was obvious from her questions and wisdom in this particular area that she knew what she was talking about and reassured us that we did in fact have a case.
Throughout the months of research there was constant information and updates and regular emails and phone calls from Segelov Taylor Lawyers which reassured us throughout the whole process that we had employed the right lawyers.
Because of Tanya’s determination, dedication and advise we received a settlement that helped my mother pay for the very best care she needed as her health declined from her asbestos related cancer. My family and I will be forever grateful to Tanya and her team as it meant we could focus on spending time with my mother and organising the best one on one care for her until she passed.
Thank you again for your dedication and hard work on this case for us. Because of your experience and wisdom Mum is now able to afford the very best care in the last phase of her life and I’ll be forever grateful for that.
Dear Tanya,
RE SEGELOV TAYLOR – DUST DISEASES CLAIM FOR MESOTHELIOMA
I just wanted to thank you very much for representing Serge in his Dust Diseases Claim. Although this journey isn’t a very happy one, we very much appreciate your guidance during the course of the claim.
We were very impressed with the way you handled the case from the very beginning when everything was very raw and we were still in shock and disbelief that he had been diagnosed with Mesothelioma. As he was still recovering from an operation, your home visits made our appointments with you so much easier. Serge is very happy with the outcome and settlement of the claim and also wanted to pass on his thanks.
We would definitely recommend Segelov Taylor Lawyers to anyone who needed your expertise in the areas that you practice.
Once again, many thanks
My father thanks you a lot and I also thank you for making this process smooth. With your encouragement and trust, you were able to get him much more. He still doesn’t believe it, but hopefully when he sees his balance in his bank account, it will sink in.
Thanks again.
I wish to express my appreciation for the assistance and support that was provided by your firm in settling my recent claim.
I was very impressed at our first meeting with the time taken to explain the process. This allowed me to submit my version of events, freely and without any form of prompting.
I would like to mention a special thank you to Kristy-Lee for the ongoing support that she provided in keeping me updated on how the case was proceeding and for the provision of relevant correspondence.
I am very pleased with the outcome and have no hesitation in referring others to your firm, for support in your areas of expertise.
I also intend visiting the online site to express my gratitude.
Thank you once again and I hope your firm has ongoing success in the support provided to clients.
At a devastating time in my life I met Tanya Segelov. My husband had just been diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma.
My husband and I both understood the need of a solicitor who understood the nature of the disease and legislation of the NSW government and the departments involved in this process.
Luckily I noticed an article in the Daily Telegraph reporting the story of a woman’s fight for justice and triumph for her husband who had suffered from a work related asbestos disease. Tanya Segelov was her solicitor.
I rang Segelov Taylor and advised how ill my husband was. Tanya visited him the next day at home and clearly explained all rights we were entitled to. Plus the procedures involved with government and the Dust Disease Board. Unfortunately nearly all of Tanya’s business relations were involved in a hospital situation with my husband. Sympathy, compassion and professional integrity were displayed by Tanya and her staff at all times.
My husband passed away only six weeks after diagnosis. Through this terrible time Tanya never shirked her duty of care to me and obtained excellent outcomes for my family and I.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Tanya Segelov and her team to anyone with a dust related illness as I truly do not know how I would have coped without her knowledge, compassion and assistance.
07 March, 2020
I am a client of the Law Firm, SEGELOV TAYLOR and I am impressed by the professionalism shown by that firm, as they recently represented me in an action relating to a claim for workers’ compensation.
I am extremely satisfied with their attention to detail, regular feedback and prompt response to questions that I put to them.
Tanya (who acted for me in this case), was extremely helpful in all aspects of the proceedings, and patient with me if I was unsure of a certain point.
SEGELOV TAYLOR achieved an extremely satisfactory outcome for me.
I would be pleased to recommend SEGELOV TAYLOR to any prospective client.
Tanya and her colleagues have done so much to get me through this awful sad time, but happy with the outcome. I would highly recommend Segelov Taylor Lawyers to anyone in need of a sound lawyer.
When my husband was diagnosed with mesothelioma in March last year, we were shocked.
He then told me that the places he worked as a young plumbing apprentice over 40 years ago were surrounded by an asbestos environment. There were many companies he worked for at that time that had absolutely no protection for inhaling & being covered in asbestos.
After a few months of discussion, we decided that this may be worth investigating for compensation. We currently live in New Zealand and had no idea who to contact in Sydney. I googled and found Segelov Taylor Lawyers.
We were so delighted that Tanya Segelov took up our case and advised us that our case was strong. Tanya was able to find the insurance company from one of the firms that my husband had worked for 40 years ago.
Due to extensive work and investigation by Tanya, in March, my husband received amazing compensation. Although the prognosis is not great, his compensation makes up for all the worry and expense that is related to his condition and we are absolutely thrilled with the outcome with grateful thanks to Tanya.
Myself and my husband would like to thank Tanya and Gabriele for their personal service in dealing with my husband’s case during 2021.
From the moment of our contract with your office the liaison has been excellent. Tanya travelled to our home which is a 3 hour trip and sat down one on one to discuss our case.
My husband’s diagnosis of Mesothelioma was a shock and thankfully for us all the strain was removed from by Tanya and Gabriele in dealing with the case which thankfully was successful.
This enabled us to carry on with my husband’s treatment to hopefully give him some quality of life for whatever time he has left.
Once again thank you both for your support and we would recommend you to anyone in need of good, efficient and understanding lawyer.
To the team at Segelov Taylor
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the way you handled our case.
The correspondence and telephone conversations were dealt with professionally in every way. Our final result was beyond our expectations.
We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who needs help in anyway, and can only thank you for your kind and considerate care.
