Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I know if I have a personal injury claim?

    To determine if you have a personal injury claim, you’ll need to consider whether the injury or illness was caused by another party's actions or negligence. This may include workplace incidents, car accidents, unsafe public spaces or medical treatment that led to harm. Claims can also depend on timelines, evidence and whether a duty of care was breached. Each situation is different, and reviewing the circumstances with supporting documentation can help clarify if a claim is possible.

  • Can I make a compensation claim if the injury happened a while ago?

    Time limits apply to most compensation claims, but the exact period varies depending on the type of claim. For example, medical negligence matters generally have a three-year time limit from when the injury was discovered. Motor vehicle accidents and workers compensation claims have shorter reporting deadlines. If significant time has passed, you may still be able to pursue a claim in some cases, but it’s important to check whether exceptions apply. Acting early helps ensure documents are still available and your rights are preserved.

  • What evidence is helpful when preparing a compensation claim?

    Strong evidence is essential for most compensation claims. Helpful documents can include medical records, receipts for treatment or medication, incident reports, witness statements, photographs, income statements, and correspondence with insurers or employers. If applicable, documentation from your super fund or previous claims can also be relevant. Organising these early can help your claim progress more smoothly and reduce delays during the assessment process.
