What is unique to fire fighters compensation claims?

In some states, fire fighters have different entitlements to the everyday person and as a consequence, their claims need to be handled differently to ensure they receive the best possible outcome.

What type of claim can fire fighters make?

Fire fighters can face a number of different injuries in the line of duty and are therefore entitled (depending on their situation) to the following Personal Injury Claims, including:

• Workers Compensation including Physical and Psychological injuries;
• Motor Vehicle Accident; and
• Total Permanent Disability (TPD) and Income Protection (IP).
  

When can I make a claim?

Depending on the type of claim, it is encouraged that the appropriate claim forms be immediately lodged. It is important to then contact our office to assist with the next steps for you.

What if my union already has a lawyer?

Often, Union affiliated law firms are linked to large city firms, where the lawyers are tied to budgets and making sure they open a certain number of files. We are not tied to budgets nor outside influences.

You are entitled to engage a lawyer of your own choosing and we recommend someone with expertise in police and emergency services claims.
