Workplace Lawyers Sydney

Your Reliable Workplace Lawyers in Sydney

We are recognised workplace lawyers in Sydney with a proven track record of quality and reliable legal services. You may be entitled to compensation under the NSW Workers Compensation Scheme if you have been injured at work. The injury can be sudden or happen progressively over time. You do not have to prove that your employer was negligent when bringing the workers’ compensation claim. However, you must prove that the injury is a result of or in the course of your employment.

Ensure you notify your employer once you know that you have suffered an injury or illness due to work. Tell your employer the date and time of the injury, how it happened, and a description of the injury. You can also notify your employer’s workers’ compensation insurer of the injury. You should lodge the claim within six months of the injury’s date. If this period passes, you must give reasonable cause to explain why you did not lodge within six months of the injury.

If you have at least 15% Whole Person Impairment and are injured due to your employer’s negligence, you may also be entitled to bring a Work Injury Damage claim to recover the past and future loss of wages. Our lawyers will help you if the insurer refuses to pay or denies liability for your claim. You may also want to investigate whether you can make a section 66 lump sum and Work Injury Damage claim. Again, our lawyers will be happy to help you get the compensation you deserve.
