SRG Advocacy works to empower and assist consumers who have a dispute against a financial firm and/or a claim for financial losses. SR Group represents clients through their dealings with their financial firm, working to obtain redress and justice.
Our bespoke approach is tailored to the needs and goals of each client. We work with you to fully understand your issue and desired outcome. Your goals become our goals.

In representing our clients, we utilise a variety of avenues, such as:
  • Direct negotiation;
  • Mediation;
  • Settlement;
  • External Dispute Resolution via the Financial Ombudsman;

At SRG Advocacy, we understand the shame, stress and absence of trust that arises from being exploited. We utilise discretion and do not judge.
​
SRG Advocacy has represented a diverse range of clients, including individuals, small businesses and groups.
If you need assistance with your dispute or in making a claim, please contact us to arrange a cost and obligation free meeting to discuss your circumstances and the options available.


Our Submissions

In addition to our client-based Advocacy, the SR Group also has an important focus on consumer finance legislation and policies. Our policy work considers the legislation surrounding the provision of financial services and seeks to ensure the availability of appropriate dispute resolution and compensation mechanisms for all consumers.
​
Much of this work occurs behind the scenes through lobbying, media discussions and the preparation of papers and submissions for Government. Some of our work is publicly available below: 

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY 

Prime Trust Group — 
​Investment Fraud Victim
    I wish to say thank you for all your hard work you you have done. My wife Pauline and I really appreciate this. We joined the "fighting group" because we felt we were in good hands, mainly yours, and this still applies. And we are fully aware that we may not get any compensation. But we know that we could not ask for better representation.    
Marcello D'Amico
    May I take this opportunity to thank you and congratulate you. Your advice as to the process has been very informative, and it is very reassuring to know that we have someone with 'integrity' acting on our behalf.    
Ann Richards 
    My wife and I are both happy with your service so far and we are quietly confident, that we will see some of our losses recovered. It has been a slow process for years and it has been very frustrating to see our justice system cannot touch the people who brought so much hardship to thousands of people.
​At least now we have a glimmer of hope, thanks to your organisation.    
Karl Osswald 
Cash Back Action Group (CBAG) - Financial Fraud Victim
    Susie and her team at the SR Group met us at a low point in our life, when trust was not a resource we had in great quantities. Their patience and persistence in building a relationship with us, until we believed they could make a difference, has had life changing results.
We had initially pursued the more traditional approach when trying to unravel the mess that we found ourselves in, but the “system” does not look after the individual, and it was clear from early on, that we were not going to have a positive outcome. The SR Group was clear right from the start that there were options available to us that had not been pursued, and they had the contacts and the action orientated attitude to make it happen. Even though the goal posts have shifted during the process, their initial quote has not changed, and the outcome has remained a consistent priority. I cannot recommend Susie and her team highly enough to act with integrity, discretion and with a results orientated approach.   
Trio Capital Group –
​Superannuation Investment Victim
    I wanted to thank you very much for your professionalism and hard work that you have and are doing relating to the Trio Compensation Claim. I have seen a draft submission to the Royal Commission which Russell sent me, and it is an excellent document.
You have pulled together the complexity of the situation so well and professionally. The outcomes of the Royal Commission have been extraordinary, and really rattled the bars of the establishment - including the regulators. It will be most interesting to follow it for the remainder of the year. Thank you once again for your hard work. I’m sure I would be speaking on behalf of the investors as well; we really had nowhere else to go.
