Workers’ Compensation Claims

Have you been injured at work?

You may have valuable rights to claim.

These could include weekly benefits while you’re unable to work, payment of medical expenses, help around the home, help returning to work or a payout from your employer. 

The law around workers’ compensation can be complicated, which is why we’re here to guide you through it. We can provide you with clear and detailed legal advice to help you navigate the system and maximise your compensation entitlements—meaning more money in the bank to help deal with your work injury.

All too often we hear of insurers declining to pay for things like medical expenses and weekly wages, leaving people with little or no help when they need it most. We’re here to help make the insurers do what they should have done from the start – pay you what you’re entitled to! Contact us today and let us chat through your situation. There’s no cost or obligation with your  initial consultation. And if you decide to go ahead, there’s no cost unless you win. As most injured workers are entitled to a grant of funding to obtain legal advice you won’t have to pay a cent to find out where you stand.
