If we establish that it’s worth proceeding with your claim, the next step in our process is to have a chat to one of our specialist car accident lawyers. They will go through your incident and discuss how your claim will proceed from here. Every case is different, so it’s hard to state with certainty exactly how long your claim will take to process – but we can give you a more comprehensive estimate at this meeting. This part of the process is obligation free, and if at any point you want to cease the claim you can.

Once you’re satisfied with how your case will proceed, we’ll get you to sign a contract authorising us as your legal representation and outline our fee structure. We operate most of our claims on a No Win No Fee basis, which means that you only pay us when we’re successful for you. 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 proceedings against the person or company responsible for your injury – bearing in mind that most persons who you are commencing proceedings against will have CTP insurance. This means that it’s the insurance company who will be paying your compensation, not the person or company themselves.

In most compensation claims, the matter is settled before reaching court. It’s in the best interests of both parties to avoid court as this adds costs and can be a lengthy process. But if your claim does proceed to court, we’ll present a strong case for you and be there every step of the way to advocate and fight to get you a fair result.

It’s difficult to assess how long motor vehicle accident claims for compensation will take because every claim is different. If you believe you have a claim for compensation, it’s important that you get in touch with our car accident lawyers today, so we can make an accurate assessment.

In most claims, your case will be settled before it proceeds to court. It’s in the best interests of the parties to settle prior to court as this adds additional costs and can be a lengthy process. If your claim does proceed to court, you’ll have us by your side at every step ensuring that your claim goes ahead smoothly.

If you’re successful in making a claim for car accident compensation, you’ll be entitled to claim for a sum. The sum will be assessed based on your injuries, your age, your loss of income (now and in the future), medical bills and out of pocket expenses, future expenses (such as surgery) and any care you may need.
