It doesn’t matter whether you were in a truck, car, motorbike or bicycle, or if you were a pedestrian. We are specialist motor vehicle injury lawyers and can lodge a CTP claim to get you compensation for your injuries.

  • Your age
  • Your employment history
  • The amount of lost wages, both current and in the future
  • The extent of your past and ongoing medical needs
  • Whether you will require care, either now or in the future

We conduct nearly all claims on a No Win No Fee basis.

If you have been involved in a road accident, your recovery should be your priority. Being injured in an accident can be a traumatic and difficult experience. This is made worse if you are also unable to work, to earn, to support your family or to live your life as you did prior to your injury.

If you are experiencing pain and suffering, have had to pay medical bills or are incapacitated, you should be able to seek financial compensation for the wrong done to you.

Our 5 Step Process for Road Accident Injury Claims

Through our simple 5 step process, we can help to ease the transition and recovery time and will make the legal process smooth so you can focus on getting better.

The first step you need to take is to get in touch with one of our friendly team members. Our experts will assess your case and advise you whether you should proceed – within 24 hours. 

If we establish that you should proceed with your claim, we will assign you to one of our specialist lawyers. They will go through the details of your incident and discuss how your claim will proceed.  Every case is different and we tailor our services to the particular needs of each client. We will give you an estimate of the length of your claim at this meeting. This part of the process is obligation free – you can walk away at any time. 

Once you’re satisfied with how your case will proceed, we’ll get you to sign an agreement authorising us to act as your legal representative and outline our fee structure. We operate most claims on a No Win No Fee basis, which means that you only pay us when you’re successful. We will then go about gathering the necessary evidence to build a strong case for your claim, including medical evidence, witness statements and any supporting documentation.

We’ll commence a claim against the person or company responsible for your injury. In most instances, it’s the insurance company who will be paying your compensation, not the person or company themselves.

We’ll present a strong case for you and be there every step of the way to advocate and fight to get you get the result you deserve. Most claims are settled through negotiation and do not proceed to court, saving you time and money.
