ATDA connects drivers with legal support for bailment disputes, accreditation appeals, workers compensation, and passenger complaints.
Important: TDA provides general information and referrals only. We are not a law firm. For matters involving legal proceedings or significant financial claims, always seek advice from a qualified solicitor. Many NSW community legal centres offer free initial consultations. We now have preferred Law Firm - " St George Laywers".
Disputes over bailment fees, unlawful deductions, contract terms, or unfair termination. Your bailment agreement should be in writing. TDA can review your agreement and refer you to a specialist transport solicitor.
If Transport for NSW suspends your driver authorisation, you have the right to a review and appeal. Act immediately — time limits apply. TDA can assist with understanding the process and connecting you with legal representation.
If injured while working as a taxi driver, you may be entitled to workers compensation through iCare NSW regardless of your contractor status in some circumstances. TDA guides members through the claims process.
If your operator has withheld earnings or made unlawful deductions, you may have a claim under contract law. TDA assists members in documenting disputes and lodging complaints with the relevant authority.
