Australian Lawyers for Superannuation Insurance Claims

You could make a superannuation claim through your disability or life insurance policies and get a lump sum payment when you can’t work due to an injury or illness.

All Aussie workers have a retirement superannuation account with employer-funded insurance policies attached. If you become injured or ill, you may be able to access a range of insurance benefits contained within your superannuation fund membership.

You may be eligible to claim when you are injured or ill and off work. Furthermore, your health condition does not have to be related to your job, as with a workers’ compensation claim.

Insurance claims can be complicated but worth pursuing, with lump-sum payouts ranging from $1 million to $5,000 (as a rough guide). So, our dedicated superannuation lawyers will help you make a claim to access your superannuation insurance benefits, 100% no win, no fee.

How to make a superannuation insurance claim

You Could Make Multiple Insurance Claims

The number and type of Superannuation and insurance claims you can make depend on the insurance cover in your Super policies (some Aussies have more than one), including the followng:

Can I Make a Superannuation Claim?

You could have a valid claim if you meet both of these conditions.

  1. At some point in your life, you worked, and your employer paid compulsory superannuation contributions into your super account. You now have an illness, injury or mental health condition that has stopped you from working for at least three successive months.
  2. You have a private disability or income protection insurance contract.

How your injury or illness occurred makes no difference

You could still have a claim, no matter how you acquired your illness, injury, or mental health condition.

People on a disability pension, receiving NDIS, with a workers’ compensation or car accident claim, and those with a severe medical condition preventing them from working could all have a viable claim.

Your Benefit Payment does not come from your Superannuation account

When you get paid a benefit from an insurance claim, the money you receive is not taken from the funds in your existing Super account. Your payout will be taken from an insurance policy contained within your Superannuation – you can relax knowing your current Super balance won’t be impacted by your claim.

Legal Advice for Claiming Superannuation Insurance Benefits

Each insurance policy has different terms and conditions.

However, for your claim to be successful, you’ll need to prove that you’ve been unable to work for at least 3 or 6 months due to an injury or illness. Generally, you must prove the following:

  1. You have a permanent disability
  2. You cannot do a job based on your experience, education, or training.
  3. The inability to work stems from your injury or illness.

Superannuation Funds Statement

Your superannuation fund’s member statement shows your Income Protection or Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) coverage level. For private policies, your insurance policy schedule will confirm your coverage.

To determine how much your claim is worth, we need to examine your facts. We can help you understand the criteria you need to meet to receive your insurance benefits.

The Superannuation Insurance Claim Process

There are, however, some steps that are common to all legal claims.

Superannuation is a type of long-term savings scheme designed to provide Australians with a reliable source of income during retirement. Because the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is in charge of this program and there are government regulations, it is subject to certain legal obligations, including:

  • Your employer pays compulsory superannuation contributions
  • Your superannuation fund should be managed responsibly to protect your retirement savings

When you have a successful super injury claim, the value of your lump sum payment relies on several factors, including:

  • The type of insurance claim
  • Your current salary
  • Your age at the time of injury
