Our client is a 51-year-old woman who was last employed as a Customer Service Officer. In 2009, she began to experience pain in her right upper arm as a result of the repetitive hand and arm movements required in her office role.
After taking some time off her work duties in 2010 she returned to work in 2011, however, in the months and years following her return to work, she observed an exacerbation of upper arm pain and became restricted in the use of her upper limbs.

Fortunately, compensation is typically available for TPD sufferers through their superannuation fund or separate insurance policies. But what if you have TPD protection under more than one type of policy? Can you make multiple claims?
You’ll be happy to learn the answer is often ‘yes’. However, there are some factors to consider before pursuing claims.
You can purchase TPD insurance as a standalone product from insurers, although there’s a chance you may already be receiving total or partial coverage under other policies.
There are various ways that you may be entitled to disability benefits, including through:
However, you may not know how much you are eligible to receive and what criteria you must meet. Check the wording of your policies closely and contact a personal disability claims lawyer for information if you want further clarification.
