Compensation Law

If you have suffered an injury in a work place accident, a motor vehicle accident, in a public place (such as a shopping centre), or as a result of medical negligence, you may be able to make a claim.

Launching a civil action for damages can be a complicated process with strict pre-conditions.

Failure to meet the required timelines could result in the loss of your right to make a claim and recover damages.

Our team can guide you through all the necessary pre-court procedures to ensure that you meet all the deadlines required by legislation.

    • Motor vehicle accidents, whether as a driver or pedestrian;

    • Bus or cyclists accidents;

    • Injuries caused by an unregistered or unidentified vehicle that is not identified or registered;

    • Claims for accidents at work;

    • Claims for accidents occurring at functions or recreational accidents; and

    • Criminal compensation.

    • You must lodge a notice of your claim in the approved form within 9 months of your injury or within 1 month after retaining a solicitor to seek damages in regards to your claim

    • Even if you somehow contributed to your injuries being caused, you may still be able to receive compensation

    • You may be able to receive compensation for loss of future earnings
