The Facts about Jason Doyle’s TPD Claim and Settlement Process

Jason Doyle, a 36-year-old tradesman, suffered significant injuries in 2019 that left him unable to continue working.

He sustained the following:

  • Shoulder injury.
  • Knee injury.
  • Lumbar spine injury.
  • Major depressive disorder.

Jason initially engaged another firm to act on his behalf, but his TPD claim was denied by AIA Insurance, who assessed him as fit for work. In 2022, Jason approached Carter Capner Law for assistance.

The legal team reviewed his medical records, consulted with his treating doctors, and commissioned new medicolegal reports which confirmed that Jason would not be able to return to work in the future. Carter Capner Law then began proceedings with AIA Insurance in 2023, supplying the required evidence and fulfilling the policy claim process.

The claim was eventually accepted and backdated to Jason’s injuries in 2019. The matter resolved with a settlement of $638,140.
