Talk to our compensation lawyers today

If you have been injured in a car accident, you may be entitled to compensation. Whether you were the driver, a passenger, a pedestrian or a cyclist, our car accident injury lawyers offer a free over-the-phone or face-to-face consultation.

What you can expect

Free, no obligation consultation

During your initial free consultation, you will meet with a local, senior lawyer. We will discuss your circumstances and your entitlement to make a claim.

No-Win, No-Fee. No Hidden Fees

Our Cairns car accident compensation lawyers work on a no-win, no-fee basis. This means you won’t pay legal fees unless your claim succeeds. We cover upfront costs, such as documents and medical reports, as your claim progresses.

Negotiation and Settlement

99% of our claims are settled without going to court. Instead, the majority are settled through a ‘compulsory conference’.
Our team will guide you through the process and handle negotiations with the compensation insurer on your behalf.

What compensation options are available?

It's important to get legal help after a car accident, no matter how small your injuries seem. Our car accident compensation lawyers can help you understand what compensation you might be entitled to, depending on what happened, how badly you're hurt, and how it affects your finances.

In Queensland, all vehicles are required to have Compulsory Third-Party (CTP) insurance. If the driver who caused the accident doesn't have insurance, the National Injury Insurance Scheme (NIIS) can assist people with serious injuries.

Our experienced team will take care of your claim, gather evidence, and represent you in any settlement meetings or court proceedings, so you can focus on recovering.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much car accident compensation will I receive?

A person injured in a road or car accident is entitled to be compensated for:

Their pain and suffering;
Any sick leave or wages and superannuation that have been lost as a consequence of being injured;
The likelihood of the loss of wages and superannuation in the future;
All medical treatment costs (both past and future);
The costs of travel to and from medical treatment;
The expenses of family or loved ones caring for the injured person (only in certain situations); and
Legal costs in making the claim (in most cases).

Calculating car accident compensation is complex and requires analysing medical evidence and the injured person’s situation.

Are there time-limits for making a compensation claim?

How do I get compensation for a car accident?

To receive compensation for a car accident, complete a Notice of Accident Claim form. Then, provide the form to the car owner and their CTP Insurer. The details in a Notice of Claim must be 100% accurate. Incorrect information can negatively affect the chances of getting compensation. We strongly recommend that you seek legal advice from a lawyer with experience in this area of law before submitting the Notice of Claim to ensure it is completed accurately.

Our personal injury lawyers can help ensure you document everything correctly.
