Rightside Legal has successfully represented clients who were sexually abused by John Maria Beyer.

Born in 1941, Beyer was a volunteer at The Salvation Army’s Bayswater Youth Training Centre and Tally Ho Boys’ Home in Burwood from the 1970s through to the early 1990s.

Beyer abused a number of boys from as young as four years old up to around 14 through the boys’ homes.

Beyer groomed his victims by inviting them into his family home to use the swimming pool, pool table and rumpus room, and offering them sweets and cigarettes if they remained silent.

He tempted the state wards with weekends away. He also often met and groomed boys through a local basketball club.

In 2008 Beyer was sentenced to nine years and four months in prison with a non-parole period of six years.

No Win. No Fee.

Capped Pricing.

At Rightside we don’t have a string of expensive offices, dozens of partners or expensive marketing campaigns to fund. We limit the number of cases we take on, prepare your claim properly and fight hard for 100% of what your claim is worth.

We understand that our clients are often anxious and uncertain about the whole legal process. We’ll do our best to eliminate the uncertainties. We work on a No Win No Fee basis – that means we fund the litigation, and you only pay when we succeed. We also cap our fees to give our clients greater certainty.
