We act for you, not the insurer, to secure a fair outcome on your home insurance claim.
What Does Claims Hero Do?
Claims Hero is a claims advocate that takes over your insurance claim and deals directly with the insurer on your behalf, while you remain in control of all key decisions. We help homeowners secure fair outcomes on home insurance claims in Australia by managing the process from start to finish, including communication, arranging assessments, reviewing reports and scopes of work, and ensuring the insurer’s decisions are fair. If your claim has been delayed, underpaid, or denied, we step in to challenge those decisions and resolve the dispute. Once engaged, we take care of the entire process on your behalf, through to settlement, removing the stress of dealing with the insurer and ensuring your interests are protected.
Insurance claims can be time-consuming, frustrating, and stressful, particularly when you are already dealing with damage to your home or disruption to your daily life. Having someone manage your claim means you are not left chasing the insurer, interpreting reports, or trying to navigate complex decisions on your own. Instead, you can focus on your family and getting back to normal, while we handle the claim and work towards a fair outcome on your behalf.

EXCELLENT Based on 205 reviews Posted on Tony HancockTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A big thank you to Lucas and the team at Claims Hero for assisting with my roof claim. They have been professional and thorough throughout the whole process. They took all the stress out of managing the claim myself and achieved an outstanding result in a relatively short time frame. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.Posted on Ian BuckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Following damage sustained during cyclone Alfred in early March 2025, we lodged a claim with our house and contents insurer with whom we had been a customer for over 26 years, without a claim. Following the initial inspection of damage by the insurers assessor, our insurer accepted our claim, which was followed by dozens of our insurers trade assessors inspections over the next 4 months, and finally offered a paltry amount, which we knew would not be sufficient to repair one damaged section, let alone other areas within the dwelling, also requiring cyclone damaged repair. This was a totally unacceptable response from the insurer, as we knew if we accepted their offer, we would be out of pocket significantly to restore the property to pre cyclone damage state. We were advised by a friend to contact Claims Hero. Alex Mahoney and Lucas Bik both came to our property to inspect the damage and repairs required and subsequently took on our case. Lucas Bik was our legal representative with Claims Hero, and from our first meeting we felt we were in good hands. However, we experienced further storm damage with significant hail and wind damage to outdoor garden setting and roof damage and additional water ingress to the house in October, which then complicated our initial cyclone damage claim, as we had to submit 2 additional claims while the first cyclone damage claim was still in “no man’s land” with the insurer. Lucas took on the additional claims, amalgamated these with the initial claim, and after another 10 frustrating months dealing with the insurer, he achieved what we thought was unachievable – an acceptable settlement. Throughout these months, Lucas continually informed us on a weekly basis of proceedings, and next steps in our saga. His professionalism and knowledge in negotiating with the insurer was first class, which assisted us greatly in reducing our stress and anxiety levels, knowing he was the interface between us and the insurer. We cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism, empathy and perseverance Lucas displayed in our 10 months of his advocacy in dealing with the insurer on our behalf. If we could allocate more than 5 stars with our satisfaction with Lucas Bik and the team at Claims Hero, we would. We have no hesitation in recommending Claims Hero for those having trouble in dealing with their insurers. Thank you so much Lucas.Posted on Jo FormosaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Claims Hero highly enough. Especially Lucus Bik I initially contacted them regarding an insurance claim for our unit within a body corporate strata complex. The first consultation was complimentary, and the advice I received was invaluable. Not only did they provide clear guidance, but they also went above and beyond by helping me understand how to present our case, identify information that was missing, and word our responses effectively when dealing with the insurer. Navigating an insurance claim can be overwhelming, and having someone in your corner who genuinely cares and takes the time to guide you through the process was a breath of fresh air. Due to the complexity of strata insurance claims, Claims Hero were unable to formally take on our case. However, despite this, they still generously gave their time, energy, expertise, and support to help us move forward with confidence. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine desire to help set them apart. If you are dealing with an insurance claim and want someone who truly has your back, Claims Hero is the real deal. Thank you again for all your support.Posted on Karen HallidayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were having a very protracted insurance claim drama with Budget Direct. I was directed to Ben Lingard at Claims Hero. Ben was so helpful & assisted us greatly by telling us how to best correspond with the insurer. He spent time on the phone with us & emailed us a very useful letter template which I used to deal with Budget Direct. After 11 months of frustration & stress we have, with the assistance of AFCA, been offered a resolution that we are happy with. If you are fed up & at a loss as to how to best handle negotiating an ongoing claim call Claims Hero. Thanks Ben!Posted on Sophie van den BogaerdeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Samantha from Claims Hero was incredibly helpful during a really stressful property insurance situation. She helped explain the process, guided me through conversations with suppliers and gave me confidence that things were being handled properly. I really appreciated her knowledge, support and willingness to help.Posted on Frankie LockieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came across Sam from Claims Hero through a friend when I was struggling with my contents claim. She was open and willing to help me communicate with my insurer and ultimately helped me achieve a great outcome. Knowing what questions to ask and how to frame things makes a huge difference, and having her guidance throughout the process was incredibly valuable.Posted on Laura VTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Claims Hero were excellent from start to finish. The entire process was handled thoroughly, and I felt supported every step of the way. Tash managed my claim and did an absolutely amazing job. She was professional, knowledgeable, and always kept me informed. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received and would highly recommend Tash and the whole team to anyone needing assistance with a claim.Posted on RebeccaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My property sustained damage from Cyclone Alfred and I endured six very stressful months of battling with my insurance company only to be offered a dismal settlement. I was recommended Claims Hero to assist with the insurance claim and I am so glad I contacted them. Karim, Natasha and the Claims Hero team have been an absolute Godsend! From the initial contact, through to the progression of the claim and to the final settlement, they have exceeded my expectations. Karim delivered a personalised and exceptional level of service, keeping me regularly informed of the process and fighting for a fair and reasonable settlement to ensure I could remediate and repair my property to a high standard. His knowledge and professionalism alleviated so much stress and I will be forever grateful for his advice, assistance and negotiations to achieve a better settlement. If you’re looking for a dedicated and compassionate team to assist with your insurance claim, I highly recommend the services of Claims Hero.Posted on Ashley BowpittTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family was in a vulnerable position when our roof was destroyed by hail, and subsequent water ingress made the house unliveable. We engaged Claims Hero early in the process, when the insurer started dragging their heels, and I’m so glad we did. They provided end-to-end support from organising suitable temporary accommodation right through to managing the entire claim process with the insurer. There is no way we would have achieved the same outcome on our own within the same timeframe. We are truly grateful for Samantha and the team! I can’t recommend Claims Hero enough to anyone facing challenges navigating their insurance claim.
