Understanding Your Entitlements and Time Limits

Many individuals wonder if a life-altering injury entitles them to a lump sum. Lump sum compensation and damages are available in many cases, and we will provide specific advice for your unique injury and circumstances. Furthermore, if an insurer has issued an unfavourable decision regarding your compensation, we can assist with your appeal through dispute resolution procedures, the Workplace Injury Commission, or by taking the matter to court.

Please be aware that strict time limits apply to making a personal injury or TAC claim in Victoria. Every type of claim has a different time limit—some are just one year, while others are three or six years. Obtaining professional legal advice as soon as possible is the best way to safeguard your rights.
