Car Accident Compensation

When you’re injured in a car accident, we know how challenging a time this can be. It can take a huge physical, mental and financial toll.  With our knowledge and experience of car accident lawyer Brisbane team, we will help you understand your rights and secure the compensation you deserve.

What can be compensated?

Following an injury in a Brisbane car accident, you may be able to claim compensation for:

• Pain and suffering
• Loss of income, superannuation or earning capacity
• Medical expenses
• Funeral expenses, in cases where the injured person passed away due to the accident.

Compensation can also apply to long term considerations, such as:

• Nursing and disability services
• Travel to and from medical appointments
• Modifications to the home and vehicle
• Retraining for employment
• Legal expenses.

Getting Started

It’s essential to get the ball rolling as soon as possible, as there are time limits in place for submitting a claim. These vary depending on several factors but can be as little as 28 days. Because of this, we strongly recommend getting in touch sooner rather than later to find out the time frame you’re dealing with.

We’ll also need some information from you to allow us to submit your claim, including a police report and a medical certificate detailing your injuries. We’ll liaise with you throughout the process, letting you know how things are going and if we need anything else from you.

From the very beginning of the process, until receiving your compensation payment, claims generally take one to three years.  This depends on the insurer involved and the healing process for your injuries.

What evidence will I need to provide for my motor vehicle accident claim?

To begin your claim, we’ll need some documents from you, including a police report number and a medical certificate outlining the nature of your injuries.  There will be additional documentation required for the claim, but we’ll keep in touch throughout the process and let you know what’s required.
