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.”

What can I claim for a farm injury?

The amount you can claim for your farm injury depends on your whole person impairment (WPI) assessment. Here’s a summary of entitlements:

Workers compensation payment:
Weekly payments

These are payments to compensate you for lost income while you’re off work.

Medical expenses

Payment of your medical, hospital, ambulance, rehabilitation (including home help) and travel expenses.

Permanent impairment payout

A lump sum compensation payout to cover permanent impairment as a result of work-related injury or illness.

Work Injury Damages payout

Also known as common law claim, this is a lump sum payout for damages if your injury was caused by your employer’s negligence.

To qualify for a permanent impairment lump sum for a farm injury, you’ll need to be assessed as having a WPI of 11% or more. Our specialist workers compensation lawyers can make sure your assessment is done correctly and that you receive your full entitlements, including any lump sums you’re eligible for.


How we can help you.

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

TPD claim rejected by Insurer

Help you with your dispute if part or all of your claim has been denied, or if you’ve been denied treatment.

Magnifying glass over medical forms. Failure to warn/inform icon

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

Team icon

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

Unsure if eligible icon

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


Frequently asked questions.

If your WorkCover claim is denied and you want to dispute the decision, here are some options:

  • Ask your WorkSafe agent to have the decision reviewed by a senior person that wasn’t involved in the original decision.
  • Contact the Accident Compensation Conciliation Service and ask them to help resolve the dispute.

The following table summarises the weekly workers compensation payments you may be eligible to claim in Victoria.

Entitlement Period Entitlement
Weeks 0-13 (returned to work)

95% of pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570, minus what you currently earn at work.

Weeks 0-13 (not yet returned to work)

95% of pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570.

Weeks 14-130 (returned to work)

80% of your pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570, minus 80% of what you currently earn at work. If your PIAWE include overtime this drops off after 52 weeks.

Weeks 14-130 (not yet returned to work)

80% of your pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570. If your PIAWE include overtime this drops off after 52 weeks.

After 130 weeks (no work capacity)

80% of your pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570. If you have no capacity for any work this is likely to continue indefinitely.

After 130 weeks (some work capacity)

Weekly payments may continue if you meet all of these criteria:

  • have returned to work
  • are working at least 15 hours per week earning at least $220 per week
  • your work related injury or illness means it’s unlikely you’ll be able to work any more than this in the future

Payments: 80% of your pre-injury average weekly earnings, up to $2570, minus 80% of what you currently earn at work.

You can make a farm injury claim without using a workers compensation lawyer. However, every workers compensation claim is different, and it can be hard to know if you’re getting everything you’re entitled to. It’s also common for part or all of a claim to be denied. An experienced workers compensation lawyer will be able to review your claim and make sure you receive your full entitlements.

If you find yourself in a dispute over your claim, having a lawyer on your side will give you a much better chance of success.

I would like to give a huge sincere thank you to Chantille and her team who helped me with probably the most difficult period of my life, Chantille was caring, honest, thoughtful, understanding and listened to me without judgment and importantly was supportive, I was updated every step of the way and informed of all the proceedings, time frames and possible outcomes.

Chantille was professional and made me feel comfortable at all times, she is caring and worked diligently with me to achieve the best possible outcome, I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. Every person I came in contact with was genuine and eager to assist in every way possible from the receptionists all the way up, absolutely wonderful people.

Thank you all for being there in my time of need and thank for laughing at my jokes bless you all.

Stacey Baker gave Law Partners a
review on Google

This company has been very good to me in trying to get me some resources from the company where I was hurt or injured they have been very good in contacting me and they seem very knowledgeable of what they doing especially the younger lady Sarah King she is a brilliant Solicitor I would have her beside me any day to fight for me.

Unfortunately The company that I had the injury with are stating they have no information or records or video now of the accident so I have to withdraw my case because of them stating they have no information or records on my case but they’re not telling the truth because it really happened and I can’t fight goliath I’m only the little person needless to say Sarah has been really wonderful in trying to fight goliath for me so if anyone ever needs to have a good representation of a solicitor I recommend this company very very well it’s just a shame I have had to withdraw through the people saying where the accident happened they have no record it never happened but it did.

This company is a great company for people who have all the proof they need to pursue their accident case highly recommend this company

Very professional and very easy to reach and understand a situation really well and finally they have won a legal battle with my insurer.
