How Can Our “No Win, No Fee” Shellharbour Dust Disease & Asbestos Lawyers Help?

If you’ve been diagnosed with a condition caused by exposure to asbestos or hazardous dust — whether at work, home or elsewhere — you may have the right to pursue compensation or claim entitlements. These rights often remain in place even if the exposure happened decades ago or if the company responsible is no longer operating.

In New South Wales, workers exposed to harmful substances like asbestos or silica who later develop illnesses such as mesothelioma, asbestosis or related conditions may be eligible to receive weekly payments and medical cost support through the Dust Diseases Board of NSW.

If a dust-related condition results in a fatality, the surviving dependent may also be able to lodge a claim.

Filing a claim with the Dust Diseases Board does not exclude the possibility of taking further legal action. If employer negligence can be shown and your condition is linked to unsafe exposure, you may also have the right to bring a common law claim.

These matters are handled by the Dust Diseases Tribunal of NSW, a specialised court that addresses asbestos and dust-related cases. Some claims are time-sensitive, and our team at Kells offers in-home or bedside consultations if needed. In some circumstances, compensation may be available for non-workplace exposure as well.

A successful outcome through the Tribunal may include a lump sum payment. To give your claim the best chance, it’s important to receive legal support. Get in touch with our compensation team today to book your free initial consultation.
