When you make a common law claim for a broken arm injury, you are seeking to recover financial damages for another party’s negligent action or inaction.

Severe arm accidents can cause serious injuries that leave you with a partial or permanent disability. When a bone break causes lasting damage, you could be assessed as having a Total and Permanent Disability (TPD).
In this case, you may be eligible to make a TPD claim through the permanent disability insurance contained in your super account.
