ABOUT DL

Trauma-informed legal support for abuse, ADF and integrity matters

Donaldson Law is a specialist firm for people who have experienced abuse, institutional betrayal, Defence related harm or other serious violations of their rights. Our focus is on careful listening, clear advice and outcomes that respect the person as much as the legal result.

Specialist practice, not general PI

We do not run a general personal injuries practice. Our work is deliberately concentrated on abuse claims, ADF entitlements, personal integrity violations and reparation pathways so we can stay across the law and the reforms in this area.

Client care at our core

We structure matters around your safety and wellbeing, not our convenience. That means minimising how often you need to retell what happened, giving you more than one point of contact and being upfront about likely steps so there are fewer surprises.

Collaborative where possible, firm when needed

We prefer processes that minimise unnecessary conflict and re-traumatisation wherever that is safe. When institutions will not engage in a fair way we are prepared to use traditional litigation and other formal processes to protect our clients' interests.
