What Compensation Am I Entitled To?
If you’re unable to work because of illness or injury, you may be entitled to make a total and permanent disability (TPD) claim through your superannuation fund. The payment you receive can vary depending on your super fund, your insurance policy, and the level of cover you hold.
A successful superannuation or TPD claim usually provides a lump-sum payment, which can be used to:
- Replace lost income after you stop working.
- Cover medical and rehabilitation costs.
- Pay household bills, loans, or other living expenses.
- Support your family or dependents.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a TPD claim through superannuation?
A total and permanent disability (TPD) claim is made through your superannuation fund if you can’t work due to illness or injury. Most super funds include this insurance automatically. A successful claim provides a lump-sum payment to help cover your living expenses and financial needs.
How long does a superannuation claim take?
The timeframe can vary, but most claims are finalised within a few months once all medical and supporting documents are submitted. Having an experienced superannuation lawyer manage your claim helps avoid delays and ensures everything is completed correctly the first time.
What if my TPD or superannuation claim is rejected?
If your claim has been denied, you still have options. Our team can review the insurer’s decision, identify any errors or missing information, and help you appeal or dispute the outcome. We’ll guide you through the process and work to secure the result you deserve.
Do I have to pay upfront legal fees?
No. Littles Lawyers works on a no win, no fee basis, meaning you don’t pay anything unless your claim is successful. We believe everyone should have access to quality legal support, regardless of their financial situation.
