Superannuation Lawyer Australia
Why Lawyers Are Needed in Superannuation Claims in Australia
If you’re struggling to have your TPD claim approved due to the superannuation fund prolonging the decision making process, you need to get experienced superannuation lawyers involved. There isn’t a superannuation lawyer in Australia who has the same strike rate as the TPD Team at PK Simpson.
The most common tactic used by super funds is to delay the claims process by requesting updated documents, usually, more recent medical reports or up to date income tax returns. Sometimes this can be a never ending cycle as time passes and reports become outdated. The TPD lawyers at PK Simpson will make certain that the claims process is not a slow one by working efficiently and effectively, and having all required evidence so that the fund is forced to make a decision.
Super funds will often employ their in-house legal team as well as outside legal representation to fight or attempt to reject a TPD claim. Our lawyers are experienced in the legal world of superannuation policies surrounding TPD eligibility and can navigate you to a positive outcome.

When Should I Find A Lawyer For My Superannuation Claim?
The answer is, from the start.
Our TPD Lawyers will:
- Obtain the right evidence to have your claim approved;
- Build your claim so that the fund cannot delay or reject your claim;
- Get the right specialists involved, if needed;
- Pressure the fund into approving the TPD claim;
- Get the right amount of TPD approved rather than a lower amount which they may offer;
- Find out if you have multiple TPD claims, and;
- Handle multiple TPD claims for you and make sure all are approved.
Superannuation funds have made the claims process lengthy and complicated so that it trips up the lay person who decides to do a claim themselves. Quite often a lay person will struggle to have their claim assessed for 2 or more years. The average length of a superannuation TPD claim to be approved with PK Simpson is 6 months. Other law firms struggle to do what we do in such a short period of time because they lack the special strategies needed to push your claim to the top of the pile within superannuation funds and their insurers.
