45-year old Slaughterman secured a $52k TPD payout

Case Overview
  • Our client was employed as a slaughterman and was riding on cattle in his workplace when he fell and sustained a significant injury to his back.
  • After the accident our client attended the hospital, however no scans were performed, and following a short course of physiotherapy he returned to his normal pre-injury duties.
  • Our client continued to work but his back condition continued to deteriorate and as a result he had no option but to cease work.
  • The delay in properly diagnosing the claimant’s back condition impacted on his eligibility to claim on his insurance benefit.
  • Our professional team quickly identified the issues and gathered the evidence necessary to get the claim to approval stage.
Our Approach

Our 45-year old client sustained a significant injury to his back. The injury continued to deteriorate and became so severe that he could not return to his preinjury duties.

The insurer requested various ongoing particulars of our client’s claim in particular information about his ongoing medical intervention.

Our client undertook multiple forms of treatment and following our support was able to receive the treatment required to manage his symptoms. However, despite extensive medical intervention, he had very little to no relieve of his symptoms and remained unable to return to any form employment.

Our experienced team quickly identified the issues and gathered the evidence necessary to overcome the barriers preventing him from receiving his TPD entitlements.

The Result

Our client was secured a $52,000 TPD payout.
