While not legally required, having a compensation lawyer increases your settlement significantly. We know which medical evidence insurers need, how to challenge unfair decisions, and what your claim is truly worth. Most unrepresented workers accept far less than they deserve.
Your employer is legally required to have insurance. If they don’t, you can still claim through the NSW Workers Compensation Nominal Insurer. We’ll handle this process for you and may also pursue your employer directly.
No. It’s illegal for employers to dismiss, demote, or discriminate against you for lodging a legitimate claim. If this happens, you may have an additional unfair dismissal claim. Contact us immediately if you face retaliation.
This depends on your settlement type. Some settlements allow you to reopen claims if your condition deteriorates. Others are final. This is why getting legal advice before accepting any settlement is crucial—we ensure you’re protected.
Yes, potentially. Insurers sometimes conduct surveillance on claimants, especially for high-value claims. They’re looking for evidence that contradicts your injury claims. We’ll advise you on protecting your claim while living your life.
For workers compensation, you initially see your employer’s nominated doctor, but you can change to your own doctor after the first visit. For motor accidents and other claims, you generally have more freedom. We’ll guide you to doctors who provide quality care and proper documentation.
Claim denials are common but often wrong. We appeal denied claims through the proper channels—whether that’s the Personal Injury Commission, internal reviews, or court proceedings. Many denied claims become successful after proper legal representation.
