WorkCover - Victorian WorkCover Claims
As far as we know, the way we conduct our workcover claims is unique. We do not work for our clients, we work with them. Our aim is to make sure that our clients understand and actively participate in every stage of every process.
This unique approach has met with outstanding success for our clients, unmatched by any other group of Victorian personal injury lawyers;
- We have acted for a worker turned away by at least three other groups of personal injury lawyers. She won approximately $1 million in back payments of workcover weekly payments and interest.
- In 2009, we acted for an injured truck driver who won a Melbourne Supreme Court jury verdict of $1.4 million.
- The current serious injury regime was introduced in October 1999. We understand the success rate for “serious injury” applications is something like 60%-70%. Our record is 100%. We have never, ever (not once, ever) lost one of these workcover serious injury applications.
Our experienced solicitors and law clerks work tirelessly to ensure that our clients receive their full entitlements to benefits under the Workcover legislation, and that lump sum compensation claims and common law claims are prosecuted efficiently.
