ACC claims
Do you disagree with an ACC decision? Check your time limits and contact us promptly. We will guide you through the first stages of challenging a negative ACC decision. Common disputes include disagreements about whether you are ready to return to work, whether your condition is pre-existing or degenerative, and disagreements regarding your Individual Rehabilitation Plan. Do you believe you have chronic injury? Has surgery been declined? We offer advice at every stage, and ongoing support if required.
ACC reviews and appeals
Whether a Review at Fairways or a District Court Appeal, we will help you bring your claim. Whether it is claiming arrears or ongoing cover, we will assist you at every step - from lodging your claim to your review or court hearing.
