Victims of 2011 Brisbane flood to receive $440m settlement – Brisbane Times
Thousands of victims of the 2011 Brisbane and Ipswich floods are set to receive compensation after a $440 million settlement.
Maurice Blackburn principal lawyer Rebecca Gilsenan said the $440 million settlement came after a long and arduous legal battle for flood victims.
It has now been 10 years since the Brisbane and Ipswich floods, so this settlement is a very welcome development that we hope will bring some much-needed closure to our clients, who have had to endure significant uncertainty and frustration while the defendants fought this case at every turn, Ms Gilsenan said.
