The firm, as well as Daniel Brand, Trent Passmore and Ben Hansberry were individually recognised by the 2023 Doyle’s Guide of ‘Best Lawyers’ as Leading Lawyers for workers compensation claims in WA.

All employers in Western Australia are required by law to have workers compensation insurance. The insurance is there to protect any worker who is injured at work or sustains an injury related to work, be that on a full-time, part-time or casual basis.

Workers’ compensation claims should consider fair compensation for (amount other things) loss of wages, medical expenses, vocational rehabilitation, pharmacy, travel and compensation related to any permanent impairment.

At Brand Barristers & Solicitors, you will work directly with a Senior Lawyer backed by an experienced team. We will guide you through the workers compensation claims process in a practical, empathetic and supportive way.

We take care of the paperwork, the process, meeting deadlines and overseeing that you are receiving the correct  level of medical treatment. 

We will advise you on how best to work with your employer to effectively manage your day-to-day duties.

We recommend that you contact us as soon as possible following the event, given that there are time restrictions which exist around making a claim. Your first consultation is obligation-free to assist you in determining if you have an eligible claim and appropriate next steps.
