Workers Compensation

If you have been injured at work or developed an illness as a result of your employment, you may be entitled to workers compensation benefits including weekly payments, medical expenses, and lump-sum compensation for permanent impairment. Our lawyers assist injured workers to navigate state-based schemes — including WorkCover, icare, WorkSafe, and ReturnToWork — and pursue all entitlements owed to them. We also advise employers and businesses on their obligations and represent them in disputed claims.

Motor Vehicle Accident Claims

Road accident injuries can have life-altering consequences, and the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance schemes that govern compensation vary in structure and entitlements across each Australian state and territory. Our compensation lawyers assist injured people to lodge claims, gather medical evidence, and negotiate settlements that properly account for their injuries, ongoing care needs, and economic losses. We act quickly to protect your rights and ensure no critical deadlines are missed.

Medical Negligence

When a healthcare professional fails to meet the accepted standard of care and that failure causes you harm, you may have a medical negligence claim against a doctor, hospital, specialist, or other provider. These matters are among the most complex in compensation law, requiring expert medical evidence and a thorough understanding of clinical standards. Go To Court Lawyers works with leading medical experts to assess liability, quantify your losses, and pursue fair compensation on your behalf.

Public Liability Claims

Property owners, occupiers, and organisations owe a duty of care to people who enter their premises or use their facilities. If you have been injured due to a slip and fall, inadequate maintenance, or an unsafe environment in a public or private space, you may be entitled to make a public liability claim. Our lawyers investigate the circumstances of your injury, identify the responsible parties, and build a compelling case to recover compensation for your losses.

Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) and Superannuation Claims

Many Australians are unaware that their superannuation fund includes insurance cover that may entitle them to a lump-sum payment if they are unable to work due to injury or illness. TPD and income protection claims through superannuation can be complex, with strict policy definitions and documentation requirements that insurers frequently rely upon to dispute or deny claims. Our lawyers review your policy entitlements, assist with the application process, and challenge unfair decisions by insurers on your behalf.

Product Liability Claims

Manufacturers, importers, and suppliers of goods have a legal obligation to ensure their products are safe for use. Where a defective or dangerous product causes personal injury or property damage, affected consumers may be entitled to compensation under both common law negligence principles and the Australian Consumer Law. Go To Court Lawyers advises individuals who have suffered harm as a result of faulty products and pursues claims against the responsible parties in the supply chain.
