Why deal with Claims Assistance
Insurance companies generally do the right thing when it comes to claims, however, they do not always consider how to best help the insured. Our focus is first and always for you, and we are passionate advocates of our clients and the people we represent. Our goal is to ensure our clients receive their correct entitlements according to their insurance arrangements. We are not solicitors, so we do not seek a litigious approach and this is represented in our costs. We know the policies you wish to claim against, the processes which need to be undertaken and the information needed to support your claim, so you are not paying us to research your situation as we already have that knowledge.
Because of our contacts within the industry, we have existing relationships with insurance companies. Our approach to progressing claims is based on these good relationships, and not seeking an adversarial outcome, because no matter how much you have to pay solicitors the insurance companies have more.
And here’s a little secret!
Insurance companies much prefer to deal with Claims Assistance than solicitors. We understand how a policy started, how it is underwritten, and what it takes to have a claim paid, and we work with your insurance company (whereas solicitors will normally demand from insurance companies.)

How Insurance Claims Assistance Works
Initial discussion
We schedule an initial discussion where we spend the time to understand your health issues, find out about your history and learn how your life is effected.
We then help you understand the claims process, timings, costs and what you can expect when dealing with your insurance company or companies.
Preparing your insurance claim
We work with you to prepare your insurance claims. We assist in gathering the information required by the insurance company. We liaise with your insurer(s) to determine what extra information they might need. We take extra time during the preparation process to save time during the assessment process.
We know what insurers need to properly assess your insurance claim. We make sure we gather as much information up front as possible to cut down on decision time.
We'll follow up to make sure your claim is processed quickly, so you can focus on your health.
Claims Management
We work with your insurer (and superannuation fund) to have your claim processed in a prompt and timely manner. We follow up and make sure you are kept informed of the status or any additional requirements. We manage the collection of any additional information that may be needed to ensure delays to your claim being finalised are kept to a minimum.
Case Studies
Claims Assistance has helped many clients over the years claim for a host of conditions. We helped them identify what they were owed and ensured they claimed through the proper channels to get their case assessed and paid out promptly.

Have a question about TPD insurance Sydney?
I have been a customer of Greg and would recommend him for his services in personal insurance. He has worked hard as the intermediary with my insurance company and has come up with an excellent result given the circumstances of my situation. It is most unlikely I would have had this outcome without his assistance.
