Personal Injury Law Experts

So you’ve been in an accident – now what?

Being involved in an accident can be a stressful, confusing time. You may be suffering from a significant injury that is keeping you off work, or receiving costly ongoing treatment for long-term pain or impairment.

Queensland law recognises your right to recover damages (i.e. compensation) where you have suffered a personal injury and a consequential loss as a result of someone else’s fault or negligence.

How The Process Works

Every case is unique, and can take a varying amount of time to reach settlement. In general, cases can take between 18 to 28 months to reach settlement, depending on whether or not a negotiation can be reached without requiring court proceedings.

  8. Once settlement has been reached – whether through negotiation or trial – we’ll make sure your payment is processed as quickly as possible.

Our Top 5 Frequently Asked Questions

N

Does it matter when I make a claim?

Absolutely! There are time limits that apply to all types of personal injury cases, which means it’s important to lodge your claim as soon as possible.
N

I am back at work. Does that mean I won’t get any compensation?

It’s great to hear that you’re back at work! The short answer is no, being back at work won’t affect how much money you will receive from a successful claim.
N

Will I be covered for ongoing treatment?

Yes. If you require ongoing treatment as a result of the injuries sustained from an accident, then you can claim for any necessary care or assistance you will require in the future.

I wasn’t alone when the accident occurred. Who has a right to make a claim?

Passengers in a motor vehicle accident have the right to seek damages if they were injured as a result of the accident. For example, if you were in a motor accident with your wife or children – even if you were at fault – they have the right to make a claim for their injuries.
