Car Accident Lawyers Cairns & Townsville
You could be entitled to claim compensation if you were injured in a car accident, regardless of whether you were a driver, passenger, pedestrian, or even a cyclist.
All vehicles in Queensland are required by law to have compulsory third-party insurance, along with being registered, which covers compensation for anyone injured in a motor accident in the state.
Of course, if you were the one who caused the accident, you will not be entitled to compensation.
Determining who is at fault in a road or car accident in a legal sense can be quite complicated for car accident compensation claims. Provided an experienced compensation lawyer can properly do this to the CTP Insurer or Court’s satisfaction, you will be entitled to claim for compensation.
Timeframes
There are strict time limits for motor vehicle accident claims. In most cases, the injury claim needs to be made within 9 months from the date of the accident. If you delay the claims process, you may permanently forfeit your rights to compensation.
