"I
am concerned that claimants throughout the country are placed in a position
where they can question decisions of the Accident Compensation Corporation.
I see the ability to test decisions as a fundamental right which unfortunately
has been lost in this country due to the cost of proceeding."

| "I
have practised in the area of accident compensation
law for approximately 26 years. My practice extends throughout New
Zealand from Kaitaia to Bluff.
"Amongst the matters which I consider are claims for cover, weekly compensation stoppages, vocational independence decisions, independence allowance and lump sum compensation, rate of weekly compensation, appearance at reviews and appeals, work injury disputes, general queries and file overviews. "This is an area of law where there is a considerable body of unreported case law which changes constantly. "Also, over the last 26 years there have been five separate pieces of accident compensation legislation which have altered the 'playing field' over time." "I am concerned that claimants throughout the country are placed in a position where they can question decisions of the Accident Compensation Corporation. I see the right to justice as a fundamental right which unfortunately to an extent has been lost in this country due to the cost of proceeding." |
