What areas of law can BPC Lawyers help with?

BPC Lawyers can help you in all matters relating to personal injury law. More specifically, BPC Lawyers can assist you in all compensation claims relating to work accidents, road accidents, public place accidents and medical negligence.

How much is my case worth?

The amount of compensation you may be eligible for depends on several factors, including the nature and extent of your injury, any impairment or disability it causes, as well as its effect on your capacity to work and earn income.

Workers’ compensation benefits in New South Wales can include weekly payments, medical expenses and lump-sum payouts for permanent impairment or pain and suffering. The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the specifics of your claim.

It’s essential to be aware that the New South Wales workers’ compensation system can be complex, making navigating it an intimidating exercise. Talk to one of our compensation lawyers at BPC to guarantee your claim is handled correctly and you receive all compensation to which you are entitled.

Do time limits apply to compensation matters in New South Wales?

When making a compensation claim in New South Wales, the time limits vary based on the type of claim you submit. In general, these include:

Workers’ Compensation Claims: In order to file a workers’ compensation claim, you must notify your employer within 30 days and lodge your claim within 6 months from when you were injured or ill. In certain circumstances, however, an exception may apply and claims can still be submitted outside these time limits.

Motor vehicle accident Claims: If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, you must file your claim with the relevant CTP insurer within six months of the date of the incident. However, in certain circumstances you may still be eligible to make a claim outside this time limit.

Public liability Claims: If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you must file your claim within three years of the date of the injury.

It is essential to be aware that time limits for claims are strict and failure to adhere to them may result in your claim being rejected. While it may still be possible to submit a claim outside these dates, doing so may prove more challenging.

Why Choose Personal Injury Lawyers Sydney?

Choosing Personal Injury Lawyers in Sydney is essential for their expertise, experience, and dedication in pursuing compensation for your injuries. Their local knowledge ensures the best legal support.

I have been reaching out to several law firms (even the high rated google firms) but it seems they do not want to discuss the matter to me. I have not seen or spoken to Nicole but she shed light on my confusion via email. She is such a blessing! Thank you!”

“After my accident and being left in no man's lands with lots of questions and no answers from my previous lawyers. I was referred to Courtenay Poulden at BPC Lawyers and everything fell into place. Injured, stressed and in pain no one deserves to be made to feel like the villain as the insurance companies push to prove you are not injured to avoid compensation. BCP Lawyers guided me through an extremely stressful and often anxiety filled 4 years. In the end we won the battle and the weight of the world was lifted off of my shoulders. I can now focus on my rehabilitation and my future. Thanks BCP Lawyers.”

“Hi Scott, Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you for your help all those years ago when I first met you and Tim. As you know Tim was able to settle my Common Law case last Friday and he was instrumental in helping me secure my TPD lump sum approval last week. I chose BPC Lawyers to represent me after meeting with several firms. After meeting yourself and Tim I felt at ease and that I was in great hands. Every step of the way Tim has treated me with kindness, professionalism and respect. Tim advocated for what was best for me every step of the way and was always very transparent with me about what was a realistic outcome from the very beginning and I was always consulted and involved in the important strategic decision making. I can't thank the whole BPC team enough. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everyone was always happy to answer my questions and promptly responded to my emails and phone calls. Thank you so much again. Kind regards, SW”
