The role of an injury helpline is to support those who have been injured in a car accident, an accident in a public place like a trip slip or fall and to support workers who have suffered injuries from work.

An injury helpline is independent. They are not working for an insurance company and they are not working for a law firm. The Australian Injury Helpline has been helping people who have suffered injuries since the turn of the century. Established in the year 2000 they have been offering helpline services that provide much needed information for people regarding the Injury Compensation Claims process. Aussie Injury provides forms and if you need to speak to a lawyer they will arrange free legal advice with a recommended specialist lawyer.

Contacting an injury helpline sooner is a good idea for a number of reasons. Here are the top seven reasons:-

Reason 1: Be in the know

Find out how the claims process works and the correct steps to follow. You will also be informed of strict time limits that apply in your State or Territory.

Reason 2: Get the forms you need

Get free information and the claim forms you need.

Reason 3: Find out entitlements

Find out if you are entitled to a lump sum payment. If your injury is serious or permanent you may be entitled to a lump sum.

Reason 4: Get free legal advice

Reason 5: Connect with the right lawyer

The Australian Injury Helpline will refer you to a lawyer who may work for you on a no win no fee basis. No win no fee means there are no up-front or ongoing costs to worry about. You will only pay their fees when you receive your Accident Injury Compensation.

Reason 6: Improve your claim prospects

One call to the Australian Injury Helpline may make a huge difference to the outcome of your injury compensation claim, helping you to get the compensation you deserve.
