How Our Gold Coast TPD Lawyers Can Assist
TPD lawyers on the Gold Coast specialise in helping individuals with Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims through their superannuation funds. TPD insurance provides a lump sum payment if you are permanently unable to work due to illness or injury. This payment can ease financial pressure and give you security when you need it most.
The role of a TPD lawyer is to make the claims process easier, stronger and more effective. At Littles Lawyers, we focus on ensuring you understand your rights, gathering the right evidence, and maximising your chances of a successful outcome.

Superannuation Claims
Many Australians have total and permanent disability insurance cover with their superannuation fund by default. However, in some cases, there are specific terms and conditions or exclusions that mean that the claimant is not able to claim some or all of their entitlements.
Employment Contracts
Some employment contracts offer total and permanent disability insurance benefits. Unfortunately, when the time comes to take advantage of these benefits, some insurance companies are unwilling to make payment. We can help you fight to claim your entitlements from the insurer. .
Enterprise Bargaining Agreement
Some employers work under the terms of an enterprise bargaining agreement. These agreements may include insurance policies that are payable if you become totally and permanently disabled. We can help you seek your entitlements under these agreements.
Insurance Purchased Through A Financial Advisor
While most Australians have total and permanent disability insurance cover by default in their superannuation, some Australians have a standalone or retail total and permanent disability policy that has been set up by a financial advisor. However, some total and permanent disability schemes do not cover you sufficiently.
CTP Driver At Fault Comprehensive Insurance
CTP insurance covers the driver not at fault for injury in full, but it typically only covers the at-fault driver for fundamental emergency medical care. If you or a loved one has been catastrophically injured in an at-fault accident, you may be able to claim compensation.
Understanding Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) Claims
If you are rendered unable to work within your education, training and experience due to an injury or illness, you may be able to make a total and permanent disability claim, or TPD, claim. However, it is important that you submit the correct information at the right time to guarantee a successful claim.

FAQs
What does no win, no fee mean?
You’ve probably seen a lot of lawyers use the term ‘No Win, No Fee’. Long story short: you only pay us when you achieve a successful outcome. So if you don’t get paid, we don’t get paid.
Let’s break it down.
- We start by reviewing your claim in detail and give you a clear assessment of your prospects for success. We’re experts in compensation law, so we can give you an accurate assessment of your claim.
- Once we’ve established that you should pursue your claim, you can tell us if you want us to proceed as your legal representatives. To formally appoint us as your legal representative, you will enter into a ‘Conditional Costs Agreement’ with us. This is a legal contract that sets out the likely costs of running your claim based on our fees, as well as the rights and responsibilities of you as the client and us as your legal representatives.
- We’ll explain it clearly and thoroughly, with as little legal speak as possible – we promise you’ll understand it completely.
- Importantly, this agreement will set out the ‘No Win, No Fee’ arrangement in black and white. This specifies that you will not pay us anything if your claim is not successful. Our ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement also covers you for disbursements, or outlays. These are expenses that we may need to pay to progress your claim, including medical reports, expert witness fees and barristers’ fees.
- In certain circumstances, you may be required to pay the other party’s legal costs if you are unsuccessful.
- Remember, your success rests on you providing us with an honest, comprehensive account of all matters relevant to your claim.
