Nicole Joseph

Senior Lawyer

I’m a litigation lawyer with over two decades’ experience in the law, and seven years’ experience with Rightside Legal representing survivors of institutional abuse. I have represented many men and women in their battle for proper compensation.   I had the privilege of instructing in the trial resulting in the largest jury award of damages in Australia.  I saw the reaction of jurors  – deep empathy for the survivor and his family, horror at what had transpired and revulsion at the decades-long denial of responsibility by the institution. The $6 million verdict was a message to institutions – do better.  I am determined to ensure that community standards are met and that culpable institutions do not continue to marginalise survivors.    I believe the litigation process should not only provide fair compensation, but also meet the deeply personal needs of the individual.

No Win. No Fee.

Capped Pricing.

At Rightside we don’t have a string of expensive offices, we don’t have dozens of partners and we don’t have expensive marketing campaigns to fund. What we do is prepare your claim properly and fight hard for 100% of what your claim is worth.

We understand that injured or ill people looking for a lawyer 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. Taking this a step further, we also cap our fees to give our clients greater certainty.
