Car Accident Claim Solicitors - Compensation Solicitors - Australia

LAWYER HELPLINE: ☎ 1800 224 077

Car accident compensation claims can be complex issues which is why you probably need to be represented by a car accident claim lawyer for all but the most minor injuries. To succeed you must show that the other party was at fault and that their negligent behaviour caused the accident. Your motor accident lawyer will need evidence including witness statements, medical reports, medical records and police reports. You must either settle your claim within three years of the incident or issue proceedings in a court of law within three years of the incident, in order to ensure that your claim is not blocked by the time limits set out in limitation statutes.

Personal Injury Claims

The claims process begins with your car accident claim lawyer obtaining all the information that is to be used as evidence including reports from investigating police officers, treatment and attendance records from medical facilities, witness statements and reports from medical specialists outlining prognosis & estimated recovery time. Your motor accident lawyer will also need a detailed statement from you explaining the circumstances surrounding the accident. You should ensure that you keep written records of all the accident details.

Award of Damages

As soon as your car accident claim lawyer has all of the relevant information it should be possible to make an assessment of the damages. This means that your solicitor will make a determination of the value for your lost income, damage to your vehicle, hire car charges, insurance policy excess and any other general expenses. At this point your solicitor will also estimate the award of compensation to which you are entitled for your pain and suffering.

Agreed Settlement

Once damages have been assessed, your solicitor will attempt to settle the claim by coming to an agreement with the insurers of the third party. If, however, liability or the amount of the claim cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of all parties, then a summons will be issued in court on your behalf after which the court will make a final determination on liability and compensation.

Passenger

    Our passenger accident solicitors provide legal representation for clients throughout Australia. We specialise in personal injury claims and use the no win no fee scheme for passenger accident compensation claims. Under a no win no fee arrangement, your solicitor receives no compensation unless your claim is successful. You will not be required to cover any out of pocket expenses. Our solicitors do not ask our clients to fund or finance a passenger accident compensation claim as it proceeds and damages received are paid in full with no deductions.

    Drivers Liability

    Victims of car accidents may suffer severe physical injuries and psychological trauma as a result of a collision. Passengers in a motor vehicle who are injured are in a very strong legal position to make a solicitors claim for compensation. It does not matter which driver was at fault. An innocent passenger in any vehicle can bring a claim against either driver. Injuries also sometimes occur on public transport including buses, which can often be subject to a passenger accident compensation claim.

    Preserving Evidence

    It is critical in a passenger accident compensation claim that expert legal advice is obtained as soon as possible to ensure that important evidence is preserved. The facts of a case can be distorted due to the memories of witnesses fading over time. Witness statements need to be obtained as soon as possible after the accident. Further more there is a time limit for bringing a claim and you must act quickly to preserve your legal rights.

    Award of Damages

    Passenger accident compensation claims give rise to two main categories of damages :-

    1. The first category compensates the victim for material losses, typically items whose value can be easily estimated and confirmed, including lost wages, loss of future wages or income, property damage, medical costs, legal fees and other miscellaneous expenses that result from the accident.

    2. The second category compensates victims for those losses that are more subjective in nature. These include pain and suffering for physical and mental trauma and detrimental change of lifestyle. These awards are determined and assessed by judges who base their decisions on awards given in previous cases.
