Frequently Asked Questions

  • What types of injuries can lead to a compensation claim in Fyshwick?

    Injuries that may lead to a compensation claim in Fyshwick include those that happen at work, in a public space or as a result of a road accident. Physical injuries—such as fractures, sprains or back issues—are commonly included, as are psychological conditions like anxiety or depression linked to workplace factors. Some claims may also arise from delayed medical treatment or incorrect care. The type of claim you can make depends on how and where the injury occurred. A Free Online Claim Check can help determine which pathway may be relevant to your situation.

  • How do I start a claim if I was injured at work in Fyshwick?

    If you’ve been injured at work in Fyshwick, the first step is to notify your employer as soon as possible and seek medical attention. Documentation such as medical certificates, incident reports, and evidence of time off work may be required. From there, you may need to complete a workers compensation claim form and submit it along with supporting documents. In more complex cases, legal assistance may help you understand your rights and ensure the process is handled correctly. You can also use a Free Online Claim Check to explore your options.

  • What should I do if my compensation claim is rejected?

    If your claim is rejected, review the insurer’s decision and the reason provided. Common causes for rejection include missing documentation, disputes over how the injury occurred, or questions about eligibility. Depending on the claim type, you may be able to request a review, submit new evidence or escalate the matter to a tribunal or court. Timeframes for appeal or reconsideration vary, so acting promptly is important. A legal consultation can assist in determining whether your claim can be challenged and what the next steps may involve.
