Total and Permanent Disability Claim – Hospital Kitchen Worker (NSW)

The Incident

We acted for a 47-year-old hospital kitchen worker who suffered a serious neck injury while lifting heavy equipment during her duties.

Injury and Impact

Following cervical fusion surgery, our client was unable to return to work in hospitality or any comparable role.

Why Specialist Legal Advice Was Required

The claim required careful coordination of workers’ compensation medical material and TPD evidence.

Legal Support and Advocacy

The matter was led by Kerry Byrnes, Senior Associate and Accredited Specialist in Personal Injury Law. We ensured the fund received complete and consistent evidence.

Outcome

The superannuation fund accepted the TPD claim without dispute, minimising delay and cost.
