Can I Claim Compensation After a Motor Vehicle Accident?
If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, you may be entitled to make a compensation claim. Every matter is different, and your options will depend on the circumstances of the accident, your injuries and who was at fault.
Compensation may help cover:
- Medical Expenses – Including hospital bills, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment.
- Loss of Income – Past and future, if your injuries prevent you from working or reduce your capacity to earn.
- Rehabilitation Support – Assistance with physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or other recovery needs.
- Voluntary Services – support systems that immediate family members have provided to you following the accident for your activities of daily living.
Medical expenses may be covered while your claim is underway. Where appropriate, our lawyers can also help you seek interim payments for lost income and pursue a lump sum settlement that reflects the impact of your injuries.
