We all know how dangerous driving a car or motorcycle can be and accidents on the road are unfortunately a common occurrence. Distractions, intoxication, weather conditions, fatigue, speeding and mechanical failure are often contributors to car accidents. Recovery from serious injury in a car accident can take a long time.
The GC Law car accident lawyers on the Gold Coast act on a no win, no fee structure. This means that you only pay the legal costs if you win the case!

Do I Have a Claim?
Anybody injured in a car accident in Queensland as a result of the total or partial fault of another driver can claim compensation. A claim for compensation must be commenced within 3 years of the date of the injury.
-
What Can I Claim?
You can claim compensation for pain and suffering, out of pocket expenses, loss of income and superannuation. The amount of your claim depends on your age, the nature and extent of your injury and how the injury affects your ability to work.
-
What is The Process?
The claim is started by sending a Notice of Accident Claim Form to the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurer of the vehicle at fault. Once liability has been determined, the CTP insurer may pay for your medical and rehabilitation costs. When your injuries have stabilised you are assessed by doctors for medico-legal purposes and then the claim is usually settled. It is highly unlikely that your case will end up in court.
