The refreshing alternative to a traditional law firm

We are unique — first to market with our fully-owned law firm in a move that is game changing for the insurance industry and challenges the status quo of traditional law firms.
As a law firm embedded within Crawford, we are the only provider in Australia to bring you a full claims, legal and risk management service in one seamless package.
Crawford Legal Services (operating as HBA Legal) is a team of award-winning solicitors offering a highly competitive suite of legal and technical claims services to meet the needs of today’s insurance marketplace. We have offices across the country in Sydney, Perth, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Newcastle.
Whether as a stand alone service provider or synchronising with other parts of the Crawford network, we offer something very different when compared to traditional law firms. Our integrated model means your challenges are tackled by our end-to-end approach across claims, adjusting and legal.
