It’s the first question everyone asks — and the honest answer is that no one can promise a figure. What a claim may be worth depends on the nature and severity of your injuries, how they affect your daily life and your ability to work, your treatment and recovery, and which scheme applies (TAC, WorkCover, public liability or another).
Compensation is usually made up of different ‘heads’ — which may include things like medical and treatment costs, lost income or earning capacity, and, where the injury is serious enough to meet the legal threshold, damages for pain and suffering. Each scheme has its own rules, thresholds and caps.
Be cautious of anyone who quotes you a number or a percentage before properly reviewing your case — that’s a red flag. We give you an honest assessment of whether you have a claim and what may be available, not a sales pitch.
