Frequently Asked Questions
What can I claim for after a motor accident?
Learn MoreAfter a motor accident, you may be eligible to claim medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages and compensation for pain and suffering.
Entitlements depend on the nature of your injury, long-term impacts and who was at fault. Other factors, like vehicle damages and out-of-pocket expenses, may also be included.
Seeking professional legal advice can ensure all potential claims are explored and documented accurately.
How long do I have to file a road accident claim?
The timeframe for filing a claim varies but is usually between 6 months to 3 years from the date of the accident. However, earlier notification to insurers or regulatory bodies may also be required. Missing deadlines can jeopardise your claim, so it’s vital to act promptly. Consulting a lawyer helps ensure your claim is submitted correctly and on time, preserving your eligibility.
Do I need a lawyer to make a motor accident claim?
Find Out MoreWhile it’s possible to file a claim independently, a lawyer can greatly improve your chances of success. They help navigate legal complexities, compile evidence, negotiate with insurers and ensure you pursue maximum compensation. Without professional assistance, you may encounter delays or miss out on entitlements you’re unaware of.
Can I claim compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes, you can still claim compensation even if you share fault. The amount awarded is adjusted based on your percentage of responsibility for the accident. For example, if you’re deemed 30% at fault, your settlement may be reduced accordingly. Legal guidance can ensure a fair assessment and helps advocate for a reasonable outcome.
