If you’ve had an accident that wasn’t your fault the no win no charge experts at Millner and Knight can make it right.
Please note: Due to the vast contrast in legislation throughout Australia, we have created separate pages with specific legal information for each jurisdiction.
If your accident took place in any of the states below, please follow the appropriate link so we can show you the most relevant content.
Any person or persons involved in a smash, whether they were driving, a passenger, a pedestrian, operator of a non-standard vehicle (bicycle, truck, etc.) will generally have 28 days to launch their accident notification claim, while injuries such as whiplash and fatal accident claims have a statute of limitations within six months of the incident.
These timeframes aren’t set in stone. In many cases, the court will grant an extension due to extenuating circumstances, such as grievous injuries or incapacitation.
The latter is for people whose injuries and recovery costs total or exceed $5,000 and is the result of another party’s negligence.
If you need help or advice about timeframes and eligibility, we can help. One call to us is all it takes to find out where you stand. Our lawyers handle claims on a daily basis so contact us today.
The number to call is 1800 106 107. All calls are free, and you’ll be under no obligation to make a claim with us when you call.
The compensation is meted out by the negligent party’s insurance or the relevant CTP insurance commission such as the ICWA or Transport Accident Commission (TAC). If you were involved in a hit and run or in an accident with an uninsured driver, the relevant insurance commission will provide compensation provided your claim is successful.
The team at Millner and Knight work hard to process your claim and achieve a successful outcome.
