Case Study:

The Overlooked Impact of 


Mental Health Injuries in Office Jobs

What happened?

Our client, Sarah, worked as an administrative assistant in a high-pressure corporate environment. Over time, she was subjected to relentless bullying by her manager, including being the only person not being invited to a team celebration. The constant stress and anxiety led to severe depression, and Sarah eventually found herself unable to continue working.
How we helped
When Sarah came to Fern Lawyers, she was unsure if her mental health struggles qualified for workers compensation. Many people around her, including her employer, had dismissed her condition as “just part of the job.” However, we recognised the serious impact her work environment had on her mental health. We gathered comprehensive evidence, including medical reports and witness statements, to build a strong case. Within months, we secured a substantial compensation package for Sarah that covered her treatment costs and lost wages.
Going forwards
With the financial support from her compensation, Sarah was able to access the mental health care she needed. She has since made significant progress in her recovery and is considering returning to work in a more supportive environment. Sarah’s case highlights the often-overlooked impact of mental health injuries in office jobs and the importance of recognising these issues as valid workers compensation claims.

How do I know if I have a claim?
If you are injured at work or in situation where the injury was not your fault, you may have a claim for compensation. Even if you are unsure or feel that the circumstances are not clear, our personal injury experts may be able to find a way to get you the compensation you deserve.
What sort of compensation will I get?
This really depends on the type of claim you are making (i.e. workers compensation, CTP motor vehicle or public liability). Most systems are designed to compensate you for your loss both past and future. The exact compensation you may be entitled to depends on the circumstances of your injury, however they usually include past and future wage loss, medical treatment, care / travel and in a lot of cases a lump sum amount paid for your pain and suffering.
How will Fern Lawyers help me?
Fern Lawyers will examine the circumstances of your injury, provide detailed advice as to your rights, direct you to the right medical experts, assist you with calculating damages and pushing the party at fault to make a fair and just payment. We guide you every step of the way and help get you the best outcome possible.
What is the cost?
We act in all our personal injury matters on a no win no fee basis. This means that you do not have to pay any money upfront and only pay our fees once you recover a sum of money.
What is the timeline?
Depending the type of personal claim that you have the timeline will vary considerably. We recommend consulting one of our expert lawyers to get a personalised timeline relevant to your situation. We pride ourselves in providing accurate timelines and being transparent with you from the get-go.
