Winning Difficult Cases & Providing Valuable Advice Since 1905


Examples of areas where you may be able to claim are:


  • Income Replacement Insurance Claims
  • Total Permanent Disability (TPD) / Superannuation Claims

  • Have you suffered a permanent injury and are unable to work?

Have you suffered a permanent injury and are unable to work?

Permanent injury is that which impairs the physical or mental ability of a person to perform regular tasks. New South Wales compensation law has established guidelines for evaluating permanent injury compensation claims based on the degree of impairment suffered.

Most people are able to make a TPD claim through the TPD insurance cover included with their superannuation.

If you have been injured either mentally or physically and you are no longer able to work in your normal occupation or any other job related to your training or experience, then you may be able to make a TPD compensation claim.

Total and permanent disability doesn’t mean you are unable to work, it means you can no longer work in the industry, or perform a job for which you are skilled. For example, a builder who suffers a severe back injury may be eligible to make a TPD claim.

What do you get if your claim is approved?

If your TPD claim is approved, you will be paid a predetermined lump sum under the insurance policy. Income replacement claims usually entitle you to up to 75% of your weekly wage. The length of time you receive your cover for could range from a year to until you are of retirement age (around 65), depending upon the terms of the policy

Each policy differs, so it is important to research your superannuation and understand what’s included and how it works. To get the best possible outcome in terms of claim compensation it’s best to enlist the help of an expert compensation lawyer to assess your superannuation policy to determine what level of cover your policy provides, and then to assist in making your claim.
