Criminal & Traffic

Brown McComish Solicitors provide experienced guidance on total and permanent disablement claims within the superannuation framework. They assist clients who have sustained significant injuries or illnesses that prevent them from working in their trained or experienced occupation, helping navigate eligibility criteria set out in superannuation fund trust deeds. Their approach includes careful consideration of the implications of accessing superannuation benefits, particularly for injured workers receiving weekly payments. The firm ensures that claims for disablement benefits are managed appropriately, often coordinating the rollover of funds into approved deposit funds to protect ongoing entitlements and comply with relevant superannuation rules.

Personal Injury

Brown McComish Solicitors provide expert guidance for individuals facing workplace injuries arising from incidents during their employment. Their legal service covers a broad spectrum of workplace-related injuries, including gradual process injuries, stress-related conditions, industrial deafness, and diseases contracted at work. They assist injured workers in navigating the intricacies of the WorkCover no-fault compensation scheme, ensuring clients understand their entitlements ranging from weekly wage payments and medical expenses to lump sum payments for permanent impairment. They also advise on pursuing common law claims where serious injury and employer negligence are factors, covering pain, suffering, and economic loss damages. In addition to workplace injuries, Brown McComish Solicitors support clients affected by transport accidents within Victoria, helping them access benefits under the Transport Accident Act and pursue compensation for serious injuries resulting from motor vehicle incidents. Their services extend to total and permanent disablement claims, assisting clients in unlocking superannuation benefits when injury or illness severely impacts their capacity to work, while carefully managing the interplay between such claims and ongoing weekly compensation payments. Their comprehensive approach ensures injured individuals receive the full scope of their legal entitlements under complex statutory and common law frameworks.
