I would like to thank the team at Carroll & O'Dea Wollongong. Matthew Forshaw and his team (Jada, Chelsea, Amelia) did a great job in representing me over nearly four years in a drawn-out workers compensation & work injury damages claim. Matthew and his team kept me updated and informed throughout the entire process with plenty of conversations/correspondence along the way. The case settled which was a great result allowing me to move forward. I would highly recommend Matthew and his team from Carroll & O'Dea Wollongong for anyone looking for a highly professional workers compensation Lawyer to represent them. Brendon M
