If you are a member of a superannuation fund and suffer injury or illness which prevents you from working, you may be able to claim total permanent disability (TPD) under a policy of insurance. TPD will be defined in the super fund’s trust deed, but definitions vary from deed to deed.
This area of the law can be complex and difficult to understand. Quite often claims will be rejected. This is where Taylor & Scott can help. We are able to provide legal advice on whether you qualify for TPD. We can examine the trust deed, gather medical evidence in support of your claim, negotiate with the super fund or their insurer on your behalf or litigate your claim as a last resort.
