What can I claim for a farm injury?

The amount you can claim depends on your injury along with how and where it happened. Here’s a summary of potential entitlements:

This includes weekly payments to compensate you for lost income while you’re off work, and medical expenses to cover your healthcare, rehabilitation treatments and travel costs.

If your whole person impairment (WPI) assessment is over a certain threshold, you might also qualify for a permanent impairment payout. Finally, a work injury damages (WID) payout may be available as a lump sum if your injury was caused by your employer’s negligence.


We’ll get you more compensation.

Farming injuries can often mean time off work, unplanned expenses, and financial stress. At Law Partners, we get to know you and your family to learn about your life before you were injured. We look beyond your injuries, to understand your work, family, social and financial situation. Then we look at what’s changed. Many of our clients’ farming work injuries have led to other life complications and health issues. By getting to know you personally we identify these issues to make sure we claim all your entitlements. That’s why you’ll get more compensation with Law Partners on your side.


What farm injuries can I claim for?

No matter how you’ve been injured, we’re here to help. Here are some of the most common farm work claims:

Tractor accidents.

Injuries from overturning tractors or collisions can result in broken bones, amputations or other serious injuries.

Falls from height.

These accidents can occur from roofs, ladders or other high structures and result in serious injuries.

Back and neck injuries.

Repetitive tasks and heavy lifting on farms can lead to sprains, strains and torn ligaments.

Farm machinery accidents.

Including accidents following the use of chain saws, harvesters, spreaders, graders and seeders/planters.

Animal related injuries.

For example being kicked, knocked down or pinned by horses or cattle, as well as horse riding accidents.

Chemical exposure.

Pesticides and other chemicals can cause respiratory issues, skin irritation and other health problems.

Brett's story

That day altered the course of my life

Brett, a proud Indigenous man opens up about overcoming his harsh upbringing and the day that pushed him to the point of wanting to end it all.

“Law Partners were my rock. If I was stressed out I’d ring them and tell them my struggles and they’d help me through it – it was unbelievable. I’d recommend them to anyone.”

Getting started.

Tell us about your claim.

Speak with one of our local, friendly lawyers today and find out if you can claim. It’s a free service for you.

We’ll get to know you.

Your lawyer will ask more questions and get to know you personally to work out everything you’re entitled to.

We’ll offer to start your claim.

We’ll explain how we can claim all your compensation and give you our ‘no win no fee’ guarantee. The choice to proceed is all yours.


Frequently asked questions.

Yes, if you’re a casual employee injured at work, you’re entitled to claim WorkCover compensation. WorkCover for casual employees is not only limited to citizens and permanent residents. If you’re on a visa that permits you to work in Australia and you’re injured at work, you’re still eligible to claim workers compensation benefits.

A no win no fee lawyer offers to run your case for you and only get paid when you win. If you choose the right lawyer, it’s an excellent option that allows you to pursue your claim without any risk, but it’s important to check the lawyer’s costs agreement to fully understand what’s covered. With some no win no fee lawyers you can still end up having to pay thousands of dollars in disbursements if your case is unsuccessful. This is because their no win no fee agreements cover their professional fees but not the costs they incur. At Law Partners, our no win no fee, no disbursements guarantee covers all our costs and disbursements as well as our professional fees, so you can pursue your claim with peace of mind.

If your WorkCover claim is denied, there are options open to you to dispute the decision.

The insurer that has denied your claim must notify you in writing of their reasons for the denial and provide information on the next steps available to you.

Here are some examples of common disputes:

  • The insurer doesn’t consider the person making the claim to be a ‘worker’ (under the legislation).
  • The insurer considers that employment wasn’t the main contributing factor to the injury.
  • It wasn’t ‘reasonably necessary’ to have the medical treatment or to incur other expenses claimed.

If you have a dispute with an insurer, here are some options:

  • Request an internal review by the insurer, who must respond within 14 days.
  • Lodge a dispute directly with the personal injury or workplace injury commission in your state.
  • Call Law Partners for free legal advice – it may be possible for us to provide you with a lawyer at no cost to you.

How we can help you.

Here are four ways our WorkCover lawyers can get more compensation for your injury:

Dispute the insurer’s decision if they have denied any part of your claim or any treatment.

Check your WPI assessment to see if you qualify for a permanent impairment lump sum payment.

Investigate the circumstances of your injury to determine if there are other claims you can make, such as a lump sum damages claim.

If you’re unable to work, we can review your superannuation policies to see if you’re entitled to a TPD lump sum.

Very satisfied with the outcome of my claim. Gillian, Melissa and all staff I dealt during my case were professional and caring and did an amazing job dealing with an insurance company to get me a fair compensation payout. So glad I chose Law Partners as otherwise, I would have given up in frustration and not been compensated for time lost at work due to someone else’s negligence. Recommend them highly.

I have been very fortunate to have picked a team which shows professionalism and caring about a very personal matter giving always there time even out of the working hours to care about someone and show that it’s more than just a matter.

They have made my problem much more easier to deal with and have shown me the respect in continuous follow-ups to make me understand and deal with this matter in a much easier way without Angy and Chantille it would be very hard road to take. Thank you for caring and thank you for making me feel important in such a hard situation.

Law Partners are the best. Throughout, Tanja Maksimovic, and team Jessica Terre, and Sarah Starnovsky, were clear they knew how to get the best outcome for me, and I was confident in them without hesitation. This was about compensation for injuries in an MVA. My heartfelt thanks. I recommend them 100%.

Domenique is so lovely, patient and understanding. Her advice is clear, supportive and encouraging. Even her voice is calming! I am so grateful to have found Law Partners and that I got a no-bias, no-judgement treatment from Domenique, which I am hopeful to have from her colleagues as well. Thank you very much, and all the best!

I really appreciate what Tanja and her team have done in taking my case, in supporting me in my difficult times and in encouraging me when I was down emotionally. I wouldn’t be able to go through the claim process without the help of Law Partners.

They’ve gone beyond my expectation. Their effort is greatly appreciated.

I have spent the last 3 days trying to find someone to help me during the most difficult & stressful time of my life. No one would help as they said it was too hard or too far along in the case to pick it up! Sophie was kind, genuine, honest & informative. She gave me generous time & ensured I would receive the best possible outcome. Thank you.

I would like to thank Law Partners for all their help and support through out my claim. Every member of Law Partners from start to finish were so helpful, and went above and beyond keeping me updated and well informed of any changes.

Very professional team that kept my best interest and what would be best for me at all times in mind. Cannot thank them enough; would highly recommend them in an instant.

Made me feel like part of their family. Thanks for everything again guys.

I was reluctant at first to put a claim in but I contacted Law Partners and was called back by Elyse to have a chat. From that moment on, Elyse, Brooke & Sarah have been brilliant. They have answered all my questions straight away, explained everything in detail, given me all the different options available and in the end, resolved my matter with a positive outcome. It has been a very pleasant experience working with them and I would gladly recommend Law Partners, Elyse and her team. Thank you!
