When you’re getting your TPD benefits, you might be curious about the cost of hiring a lawyer for TPD claims. Some law firms dealing with insurance charge a portion of your overall payout, and that can be quite a bit. But here’s the thing: Aussie Injury Lawyers is different. We don’t take a percentage of your TPD payout like other lawyers do. Instead, we have fixed or capped fees, so you know exactly what to expect.

About TPD Claims
In Australia, you have the option to file one or more Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims if you’re dealing with an illness, injury, or medical condition, which can even include mental health issues, preventing you from continuing your regular work. Typically, this is covered within your Superannuation fund, but you might also be covered by a private insurer.
If your TPD claim is successful, either through a superannuation policy or as part of a personal injury claim, you’ll receive a lump sum payment. Fortunately, this TPD payout can provide financial support for your life until you gain access to your Super retirement income stream.
100% No Win, No Fee TPD Claims
The “No Win, No Fee” concept is a straightforward idea that can make a significant difference for anyone contemplating making a claim. The idea is simple: nobody should be stressed about the expenses of pursuing their legal entitlements.
If you believe you have grounds for a Super TPD claim, you’re likely aware that most law firms provide No Win, No Fee funding for such claims. The costs of handling your case are subtracted from your payout only if your TPD claim is successful.
Typically, what you pay for legal services is determined by the number of hours dedicated to achieving your desired outcome. Additionally, fees for any necessary medical reports or assessments, along with miscellaneous costs, may be included.
How Much Does a TPD Claim Cost?
The cost of a TPD claim can differ based on factors like the case’s complexity, the lawyer’s experience, and the hours needed for a successful TPD payout. Injury law firms usually provide legal services with a no-win, no-fee approach, meaning you only pay if they win your claim. Settlement fees are often a percentage of the total settlement amount and can vary between firms.
Aussie Injury Lawyers, unlike other insurance claim law firms, don’t charge a percentage of your payout. Our charges are based solely on the effort needed to secure a successful outcome. You’ll know the upfront capped price before we start working on your case.
Three Factors Affecting the Cost of TPD Claims
1) Complexity of Insurance Claims
The intricacy of a TPD insurance claim often means more time and resources are needed, leading to higher costs. Cases involving multiple injuries or illnesses may require additional medical evidence and expert opinions.
2) Amount of Work
The hours dedicated to achieving success will influence the cost of your claim. Cases demanding extensive documentation and evidence gathering might take longer compared to simpler ones.
3) TPD Lawyer’s Experience
The fees charged by your lawyers could be influenced by their experience; generally, more experienced lawyers may have higher fees. However, seasoned lawyers might handle cases more efficiently and cost-effectively, potentially saving time and money in the long run.
TPD Claims for Less Than You Expect
As is the case with many things in life, the cost of legal services can vary. It might come as a relief to know that, in many instances, the expense of handling a TPD matter is often less than anticipated. However, the specific cost can be influenced by the details of your case.
The overall cost of successfully pursuing a TPD claim is linked to how simple or complex your case is. If you’ve dealt with this kind of claim in the past, you might be aware that the charges are generally lower compared to other types of injury claims. In fact, they are likely to be less than you might initially expect.
Understanding your TPD Entitlements
Chances are, you’ve never had to tap into your Superannuation, and it’s likely you haven’t closely examined it. Due to this, many Australians are unfamiliar with or don’t fully understand the insurance included in their policy. So, when it comes to figuring out how to make a claim against your Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) cover and, more crucially, ensuring you get the maximum amount you’re entitled to, this is where an experienced TPD law firm can step in to help.
Ask About Our Capped Legal Fees
When dealing with a claim for illness or injury, the cost typically depends on the work involved to make the claim successful. The amount you’ll pay is usually determined upfront and won’t change, providing clarity from the beginning of the process. If, for any reason, the claim doesn’t succeed, there won’t be any payment required.
This approach ensures that if your claim is successful, you won’t be hit with an unexpectedly large legal bill later on, offering peace of mind during an already challenging time. Recognizing that financial resources may be limited if you’re unable to work, many firms provide a 100% No Win No Fee option for clients making Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims.
