The Workcover and TAC services we provide
If your injury occurs at work or has been aggravated or exacerbated at work then you have a valid workers compensation claim
We will ensure that you receive your entitlements for weekly payments for incapacity, medical and like expenses and lump sum compensation.
If you are injured after April 2010, you should contact us to allow us to check your entitlements.
If your weekly payments are terminated then you have a right to appeal and/or take the matter to a conciliation conference.
Workers who have a permanent injury can claim a lump sum of compensation under section 98C if their impairment is assessed medically as being greater than 10%. Our Workcover and TAC lawyers can help settle the claim outside the Court or negotiate with the Accident Compensation Conciliation Service.
You should see us before agreeing to anything with the insurer in relation to permanent injury compensation.
