Why Turks

We understand that workers compensation can be complex. That is why we have developed our Industry-leading Guide: Workers Compensation in NSW: A Guide for Insurers and Employers, which cuts through the legal jargon. The Guide provides a clear, succinct summary of all areas of workers compensation in NSW and is used as a trusted training resource across the NSW workers compensation industry.

Our team prides itself on understanding our clients’ businesses and the practical challenges they face every day. This enables us to respond proactively to claims, identify emerging trends and work with our clients to develop strategies that help prevent injuries and reduce future risk. Where injuries do occur, we focus on achieving positive outcomes for all stakeholders, supporting injured workers while helping employers achieve sustainable return-to-work outcomes.

Our approach is always measured. We avoid unnecessary litigation wherever possible and focus on resolving disputes efficiently and commercially. Where it is appropriate to defend a claim, we work collaboratively with our insurer and employer clients to ensure they remain informed, supported and engaged throughout the process.
