According to The Motor Accident Insurance Commission, the most common type of road and car accidents in QLD are multiple vehicle accidents, which make up almost 50% of all accidents. In such cases, claiming compensation can be challenging and stressful. Fortunately, Queensland road users can protect themselves from a car accident injury by claiming compensation through the CTP.
Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance covers all vehicles being driven on the road and requires vehicle registration. All Queensland road users are covered under the CTP scheme, including:

Vehicle driver not at fault (car, van, and truck drivers)

Vehicle passengers (even those who are with at-fault drivers

Motorcyclists

Taxi and rideshare individuals involved in a crash.

Cyclists injured by a vehicle

E-scooter rider facing injury due to third-party negligence

Our team of skilled lawyers can guide you through the entire process and understand your case to offer sound legal advice.

Pedestrians injured by a vehicle

Car accidents are unfortunately common in Queensland and thousands are injured due to the negligence of the driver or at-fault third party. When injured due to someone else’s driving negligence, individuals can claim car accident compensation. There is a three-year time limit for initiating a compensation process when suffering from injury. However, individuals must commence their claim procedure as soon as possible to avoid delay.
While individuals have three years to proceed with a compensation claim, they have to abide by the legal time limit and inform the at-fault third party about the car accident. The shortest time limits are:

Workplace Injury Claims

If you have suffered any injury or wrongdoing at your workplace, whether physical or psychological, then you can file for a Workers’ Compensation Claim. 

This type of claim covers workplace injuries, diseases or medical conditions contracted at work, accidents caused by management negligence, and bullying or harassment. Our compensation lawyers in Brisbane have the expertise to assess whether your case is eligible for Workers’ Compensation and offer legal advice tailored to your situation. 

Workers compensation process in Queensland

If you have been injured at work or because of the work you were doing, there are two types of claims:

Superannuation & TPD Claims

If you have been unable to work for three or more months due to an injury or illness, you may be liable to get Superannuation TPD Claim benefits. 

In a TPD Claim, it is important to understand the type of disability you’re claiming. This means determining whether your injury or medical condition has made you unable to work in any occupation or your current occupation. The type of disability will affect the compensation payout. Our compensation lawyers in Brisbane will help you navigate this legal process and ensure that your rights are protected.

FAQs

A compensation lawyer in Brisbane assists individuals seeking compensation for injuries or losses they have suffered due to third party negligence. They can help you with case evaluation, gathering evidence, negotiation with other parties, court representation, and legal guidance.

Compensation claims can cover various areas, including:

  • Personal Injury Claims: This involves injuries caused due to someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing. 
  • Workers’ Compensation Claims: For injuries or illnesses that occur in the workplace.
  • Medical Negligence Claims: When medical professionals fail to provide an acceptable standard of care, resulting in harm to the patient.
  • Public Liability Claims: For injuries on public or private property due to negligence.
  • Motor Vehicle Accident Claims: Specific to injuries and losses resulting from motor vehicle accidents.

In a “No Win, No Fee” arrangement, the compensation lawyer will only charge fees if they win the case. If they don’t win, the client won’t have to pay any legal fees. However, they may have to pay for other expenses, such as court filing fees or medical assessments.

Professional compensation lawyers have the expertise and skills to navigate the complex legal process. With their years of experience, they can maximise your chances of filing a successful claim. Compensation lawyers can also help you gather evidence, facilitate negotiations, and connect you with third-party experts, such as medical doctors or private investigators, as needed for your case.

A compensation lawyer should have a law degree from a recognised and accredited institution or university. A compensation lawyer in Brisbane should have the license to practise law professionally in Brisbane. Moreover, they must specialise and have experience in personal injury or compensation law cases.

When selecting a compensation lawyer in Brisbane, you must consider their qualification, reputation, experience in similar cases, past track record, communication skills, fees and payment structure, and availability and accessibility.

Before hiring a compensation lawyer, you should ask them about their experience with similar cases, success rate, working style, case timeline, and fee structure. You may also ask whether they believe you can win your claim. All these will help you understand if they are fit for your case.

You can check a lawyer’s reputation by visiting their website and viewing client testimonials and reviews. If you know the lawyer through any reference, ask that friend or family about their experience and legal knowledge. You may also reach out to legal associations to enquire about a lawyer’s credentials.

First and foremost, you need to schedule a consultation call with a compensation lawyer, who will carefully review your case and advise you on the next steps. Once you decide to file a compensation claim, the lawyer will help you gather all the necessary evidence and guide you through legal protocols. Next, negotiations with the opposing party will commence to reach a settlement. If an agreement cannot be reached, the case will proceed to trial, during which the lawyer will prepare required documentation and present the case on your behalf in court to ensure you receive the rightful compensation.

The duration of the compensation claim process varies widely depending on several factors, including the complexity of the case, the willingness of the opposing party to settle, and the court’s schedule. Typically, uncomplicated cases settled out of court may get resolved in a few months, while complex claims take several years, especially if they go to trial.
