Are you having issues with your WorkCover claim? Perhaps it has been rejected for some reason and you would like some advice and support? If you have experienced a disappointment with WorkCover payments for workers compensation the next step is to get a second opinion. You can contact a personal injury lawyer who will be able to advise you and assist with your claim. For free legal advice from a personal injury lawyer call 1300 850 441 and discover your right to legal compensation.
In some cases workers are on WorkCover for a long period of time and their injury does not heal fully as expected resulting in a permanent impairment. When this happens a further claim can be presented. Legal Compensation Helpline can assist you in this regard.
Our Legal Compensation Helpline has assisted thousands of workers with their WorkCover claims, especially those in Queensland (QLD). In addition to a statutory claim, quite often workers are also entitled to a common law claim in which our team can offer expert advice. A common law claim can be sought where negligence was present by employer or fellow worker that led to the injury occurring; or if reasonable steps were not taken to prevent the injury from occurring. In order to file a common law claim the services of a personal injury lawyer are required.
When you receive your Notice of Assessment from WorkCover Queensland it is strongly advised that you seek legal advice before you accept the offer of compensation. Once you sign WorkCover's acceptance form you will be prevented from making a common law claim. A common law claim could be worth thousands of dollars more to you in compensation and assist you in moving your life forward. Ring our helpline on 1300 850 441 first and one of our personal injury lawyers will advise you if the offer is acceptable. We will also advise you if you are entitled to a common law claim. We offer free legal advice and one call can make a big difference to all compensation claims.
At Legal Compensation we have lawyers that can take your case on a no win no fee basis. This means there are no up-front or ongoing costs to worry about. If you believe you have a good claim we will help you fight for the maximum compensation available. To find out if you case qualifies for a no win no fee arrangement call our Legal Compensation Helpline on 1300 850 441 and we will do our very best to assist you.
Do be aware that there are time limits that apply to compensation claims. It is better to get legal advice sooner rather than later to ensure that you do get the compensation that is legally and rightfully yours. By getting advice early on you can ascertain all your entitlements early on and know where you stand legally.
Recently there has been proposed changes in Queensland legislation that may affect the QLD WorkCover scheme. Proposed changes mean the percentage impairment may be lifted meaning it will become more difficult to pursue a common law claim. The proposed changes also mean significantly reduced lump sum payments. Call our helpline today without delay on 1300 850 441.
