Superannuation on Workers Compensation

No Win No Fee – Compensation Lawyers

If you have suffered from a serious illness, disability, or an injury that has made it impossible for you to continue working, you may be entitled to claim compensation through your superannuation fund. This claim is commonly known as a total and permanent disability (TPD) claim.

Depending on your employer and your personal circumstances, you may have a TPD or accident insurance policy that you can claim compensation against.

If you or any of your family members are unable to work because of an illness or injury, contact one of our Townsville lawyers. Our team of experts will provide you with a no-obligation initial assessment to determine if you’re eligible to make a TPD claim.

We can help you get compensation under a TPD policy on a no win no fee basis. This means that you only pay us if we successfully secure your compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a TDP claim take?

Every TPD claim is different, and comprehensively compiling and reviewing any claim can vary in the amount of time it takes from start to finish. Typically, it can take between 3 to 12 months after you submit a claim to your fund/insurer for a decision to be made.

For support with TPD claims, speak to our expert superannuation lawyers in Townsville.

What happens if my TPD claim is rejected?

If you have lodged your TPD claim yourself and the insurance company or superannuation fund has declined your TDP claim, speak to an expert TDP lawyer. We can help you successfully litigate and resolve TPD claim issues.

Working with a lawyer can ensure that your claim is handled correctly. This can decrease the likelihood of it being denied or delayed.

Can you return to work after receiving a TPD claim?

In some cases, it is possible to return to work after receiving a TPD payout, providing you meet one or more of the following:

  • You are unable to work within your current occupation
  • You are unable to continue to work in your field of expertise in a training or education capacity
  • You cannot complete day-to-day activities

Every Total Disability Claim is different, so it is important to seek advice from a TPD claim lawyer.

What evidence will I need for my TPD claim?

Regardless of the nature of your claim, there is always a certain amount of administrative work that needs to be taken care of. For TPD, it will depend on your circumstances, but some of the evidence you may need to organise includes:

  • Claim form
  • Certified ID
  • Medical reports and evidence to confirm you are totally permanently disabled from returning to work
  • Clinical notes
  • BAS (if self-employed)
  • ATO records
  • Medicare records
  • Centrelink records
