Milicevic Solicitors

Milicevic Solicitors is a law firm specialising in compensation law and superannuation. The firm acts for individuals and families seeking compensation for injury with a strong reputation for handling complex, high-value and legally significant matters. Our legal team is known for providing clear, practical advice and principled advocacy in serious claims involving negligence, liability and harm. The firm is led by Principal Solicitor Miki Milicevic, who has acted in some of Australia’s most influential compensation and institutional liability cases, including matters that have helped shape the development of Australian law. One of the firm’s most notable matters includes Marlene Sharp v Port Kembla RSL Club [2001] NSWSC 301, a landmark decision concerning liability for hazardous exposure in public venues. The case successfully established that a venue could be held liable for harm caused by prolonged exposure to environmental risk, in this case, passive smoking, and contributed to the evolution of negligence law in relation to second-hand smoke and public health responsibilities. The firm’s Principal has also acted in the High Court matter New South Wales v Lepore (2003) HCA, one of Australia’s most significant decisions on institutional liability and vicarious responsibility. This case clarified the limits of vicarious liability for intentional wrongdoing by employees and examined the scope of a school’s non-delegable duty of care. The decision reshaped how Australian courts assess institutional responsibility for intentional misconduct and remains a leading authority today. Through work on precedent-setting cases such as these, Milicevic Solicitors has built a reputation for acting in matters that raise complex questions of law, public policy and civil liability. The firm continues to represent clients in serious compensation and negligence claims across New South Wales and beyond.
