Law Works Compensation Lawyers

Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) insurance is designed to provide financial support if you’re unable to return to work due to serious illness or injury. But getting a fair payout from your insurer isn’t always straightforward. Many Australians are surprised to find that TPD claims can be delayed, denied, or underpaid — often due to complex policy wording or unreasonable insurer conduct.

 

At Law Works Compensation Lawyers, our experienced TPD claim lawyers are here to make sure your rights are protected and your claim is handled fairly. Here’s how we help.

What Is a TPD Claim?

A TPD claim is made through your superannuation fund or standalone insurance policy. It provides a lump sum payment if you’re permanently unable to work in your usual occupation — or sometimes any occupation, depending on the policy.

 

Each policy is different, but most require you to show that:

  • You have stopped working due to illness or injury
  • Your condition is permanent
  • You are unlikely to return to your suited employment again

The definitions and requirements can be highly technical — and that’s where skilled legal guidance becomes essential.

Why Are TPD Claims So Commonly Denied?

Even when your disability is genuine and severe, insurers may still:

  • Argue that your condition is not permanent
  • Dispute whether you’re unable to work in any occupation
  • Delay the claim by requesting excessive medical evidence
  • Misinterpret or misapply policy definitions

Without proper representation, these hurdles can be stressful and costly. That’s why engaging experienced TPD claim lawyers can make a significant difference.
