Do I really need a lawyer to make a TPD claim? – Littles
Self-employed? What you need to know about TPD claims when you’re the boss – Littles
5 steps to a successful TPD claim – Littles
Despite using legal-sounding words to describe themselves and their staff, these organisations are not law firms, and their representatives are not lawyers.
Littles will never seek to take a percentage of your benefit. Not only will we perform a free claims check, so you understand all your options, we’ll also provide you with a detailed Costs Disclosure and Costs Agreement which sets out:
1. What you have been retained us to do
2. Who in the firm will perform the work
3. How we bill (by an hourly rate)
4. An estimate of the fees we expect to charge, having regard to the information we have been provided
5. An estimate of the cost of any reports we expect will need to be obtained to prove the claim.
If you’re unable to work due to serious injury or illness, you probably want to focus on getting well and looking after your family – you don’t want to spend your time filling out complicated paperwork and providing evidence to support a superannuation insurance claim. We get it, and why it’s tempting to run with someone who claims they can take all of this off your hands. But remember – not all advocates are created equal. If you’re going to seek help, consult an insurance law expert. At Littles, that’s what we are.
Don’t delay – seek advice now

Know where you stand, and get peace of mind.
