A workers compensation claim is a type of personal injury claim filed by employees to claim compensation payments for work-related injury or disease. It is often referred to as workers comp claims, workcover claims, work injury claims, workplace injuries claims or no-fault personal injury claims for workplace accidents.
An injured worker can claim compensation for work-related injuries including physical injuries (e.g. back injuries, neck injuries, knee injuries, hip injuries, spinal injuries, foot injuries, bicep injuries), work-related stress claims, psychological injuries and workplace bullying.
Workplace back injuries are one of the most common work-related injuries. Other common workplace injuries include:

How do I choose a good personal injury compensation lawyer?
A personal injury or workers compensation claim is difficult for most individuals to understand. Even individuals who have dealt with the workers compensation claim process or any other personal injury claim process may find it challenging to find the best injury compensation lawyer for their personal injury claim. Here are the helpful tips for finding the best personal injury lawyers for your personal injuries claim.
The obligation-free initial review allows the injured person to meet the lawyers and learn about the legal services. When you meet with the personal injury lawyer, be sure to discuss the details of your case.
Personal injury claims can be complicated, but a good personal injury lawyer can ease the stress by explaining things clearly in plain English.
Many experienced workers compensation lawyers and reputable injury lawyers in Perth offer No Win No Fee legal assistance. This is good news for the injured people!
No win no fee lawyers don’t charge legal fees until you receive your compensation payments. This means the lawyers are motivated to get results for their clients.
Not all the No Win No Fee lawyers are the same. Be sure to go with reputable no win no fee lawyers who are committed to maximising your compensation payouts.
Please be mindful of lawyers who promise you quick results! A quick settlement without quality legal services often results in a significant reduction of compensation payments.
It’s critical to know your legal team. It should be a mix of senior and junior lawyers. Experienced lawyers frequently charge more and handle more cases. For basic workcover claims with low permanent disability ratings, a junior lawyer managing the day to day conduction of the workers compensation claim under the supervision of a senior lawyer may be more beneficial to the injured person.
Always read online reviews of lawyers. Don’t choose a lawyer near me because you think it will be easier to manage your case. False! An excellent lawyer is worth the trip.
Some of Foyle Legal’s clients live in Albany, Karratha, Broome, Port Hedland, and Kalgoorlie. We can manage personal injury claims remotely and get a settlement outcome that is multiple times higher than the insurer’s initial offer!
What do personal injury lawyers charge?
Personal injury lawyer fees are often outlined in the Cost Agreement when you engage the legal services of a personal injury law firm.
WA’s worker’s compensation lawyers must charge workers’ compensation matters in WorkCover per the Workers’ Compensation (Legal Practitioners and Registered Agents) Costs Determination 2015.
Regarding other personal injury claims, personal injury lawyers charge according to the relevant cost determination.
At the end of the settlement, it is also common for workers’ compensation lawyers to charge a ‘success fee’. Foyle Legal will not ordinarily charge a success fee. In addition, We try our best to recover our legal costs from the insurance company. The goal is to get the insurance company to cover most of the legal fees so that the client’s out-of-pocket legal fees are low.
Do I need a work injury lawyer for workers compensation?
You do not need a lawyer for workers compensation claims. However, you often get a better compensation payout if a specialist a workers compensation lawyer represents you at WorkCover or District Court.
A typical workers’ compensation claims often consist of two sides: the defendant, and the plaintiff
The Defendant
A claim offer or an insurance lawyer employed by your employer’s workers compensation insurance company manages your workers compensation claim. Their role is to defend the insurer’s interests, frequently at the expense of injured workers. Claim officers and insurance lawyers typically have more experience and training than you. They’ve also built a network of doctors, rehab providers, return-to-work providers, and other service providers to help them fight the plaintiff (i.e., injured workers).
The Plaintiff
Injured workers are often the plaintiff in a personal injury claim. Most of the injured people don’t have the skills and experience to fight against the defendant. A good compensation lawyer who specialises in workers compensation, such as the specialist workers compensation lawyers team at Foyle Legal, has years of experience helping the plaintiff fight against the defendant (i.e., insurance companies and their lawyers). Like the defendants, we have also developed our networks of professionals to assist our clients.

How long after a work accident can I claim?
Strictly speaking, there is no limit on how long after a work accident you can claim workers compensation for your injury.
