- Spinal cord injuries
- Vertebrae fractures
- Sprains and strains
- Sciatica
- Chronic back pain.
These injuries can occur in various circumstances:

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about back injury claims
What’s the time limit for making a personal injury claim?
In Australia, time limits for personal injury claims vary by state. Generally, you have three to six years from the date of injury to file a claim. However, we strongly recommend acting as soon as possible to ensure the best outcome.
What types of compensation can I claim for a back injury?
Depending on your situation, you may be eligible to claim for:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Home modification costs
- Care and assistance expenses.
How much compensation will I get for a back injury?
Each case is unique. The payout amount depends on factors such as injury severity, its impact on your life, and your financial losses. During your free initial consultation, we can provide an estimate based on your specific circumstances.
Can I make a claim if my back injury occurred at work?
Yes, you can. Workplace back injuries are common and you’re entitled to workers’ compensation. You may also be eligible to make a common law claim. We can guide you through this process.
Does a pre-existing back condition affect my claim?
A pre-existing condition doesn’t automatically disqualify you. If your work or an accident has worsened your condition, you may still be eligible for compensation.
