Navigating TPD Claims for Early-Onset Dementia

At Claimplus Lawyers, we recognise the profound impact that early onset dementia has on individuals and their families, not just emotionally and physically, but also in terms of navigating the complex legal landscape of Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims. Our mission is to alleviate the burden during this challenging time by taking on the heavy lifting—from offering a free claim evaluation to lodging the claim on your behalf and advocating for your rights.

Early Onset Dementia and Its Implications

Early onset dementia, which strikes individuals under the age of 65, can severely impair cognitive functions such as memory, language skills, and decision-making. This condition diminishes the quality of life and affects the capacity to work, leading to financial instability. Conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, and Lewy body dementia fall under this umbrella, each presenting unique challenges for the individual and their loved ones.

The Critical Role of TPD Claims

TPD insurance is designed to offer financial support to individuals who are permanently unable to work due to a disability like early-onset dementia. Accessing these benefits can be crucial for covering living expenses, medical treatments, and ongoing care needs, providing a financial safety net in a time of uncertainty.

Your Eligibility for TPD Claims

Eligibility for TPD benefits hinges on meeting specific criteria outlined by your insurance policy, including:

  • Proof of Diagnosis: A formal medical diagnosis by a qualified professional.
  • Employment Status at Onset: Typically, claimants must have been employed at the onset of symptoms or diagnosis.
  • Waiting Period Compliance: Adherence to any specified waiting period post-diagnosis or cessation of work.
  • Permanent Incapacity Proof: Evidence demonstrating the inability to return to work due to the condition.
