While it’s not necessary to have a lawyer to lodge your claim, we highly recommend you discuss your situation with the Kelly Legal team. It’s important to ensure your benefit payment can cover the costs of current and future medical bills, clear debts that may have accrued and provide you with the necessary income to maintain your quality of life. There are a few considerations you need to understand before making a claim: Level of disability Your super fund and whether it covers TPD Waiting periods Employment history Our friendly and experience lawyers can walk you through the process and ensure you receive quality advice and service.

Accidents in Public Places
By Motifo Master • 14 May, 2021
If you have suffered an injury or disability in a public place in Queensland, because of the actions or negligence of someone else, means you may be eligible to a public liability compensation claim. Kelly Legal’s expert compensation lawyers can handle claims for a wide range of public liability-related injuries and illnesses including, on a footpath or park, private or public property, shopping centres, schools or educational institutes, hotels, motels or entertainment venues, as well as food poisoning. It’s important to start the process as soon as the injury or illness has taken place, so that you can begin collecting evidence to support any claim you wish to make. We advise to contact the Kelly Legal team on 4911 0500 as soon as possible, so that we can guide you on what will be required to lodge a claim.
Workplace Injuries and WorkCover Claims
By Motifo Master • 14 May, 2021
While it should be every employer’s responsibility to ensure a safe workplace for staff, unfortunately workplace injuries still happen. These injuries can have devastating effects on all involved. Anyone who suffers an injury at work, or an injury as a result of work, can make a claim under the Worker’s Compensation Scheme. This Scheme assists injured workers by providing benefits to help them through difficult times when recovering from injury. The Kelly Legal team can help you through the steps required to submit a WorkCover claim, as well as ensuring you understand your rights and entitlements. We also assist in WorkCover disputes or helping to maximise compensation in relation to workplace injuries. Every injury is different, and every situation is unique, so we recommend giving the Kelly Legal team a call on 4911 0500 to gain clarification when it comes to workplace injuries and WorkCover Claims.
Road Accidents
By Motifo Master • 14 May, 2021
Being involved in a road accident can be a traumatic event and can affect many aspects of your life. Following a road accident, you may be eligible for a payout from your super fund or insurer. The experienced team at Kelly Legal can assist you in dealing with superannuation funds or insurers so you can focus on recovering or managing any injuries, illnesses or disabilities as a result of the accident. There are a number of insurance benefits available through super funds including Income Protection (IP), Total & Permanent Disablement (TPD) and Total & Temporary Disablement (TTD). Most super funds pay regular instalments of up to 75% of your income for IP and TTD, and a lump sum in the event of TPD. If the accident is a fault of another person, you may be able to make a claim against the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurer of that person. Due to the complex nature surrounding road accident claims, we recommend contacting a knowledgeable lawyer as soon as possible. For any insurance claims, or if there are disputes around who was at fault, contact the team at Kelly Legal on 4911 0500 who can take you through the process to ensure you act quickly and within the relevant timeframes.
