In most cases, claims in Thornlie will take more than 12 months to finalise.
Minor cases such as sprains and strains can sometimes be finalised in 12 months. Generally, the more serious your wounds are, the longer the claim will take. For some serious circumstances, it’s not unusual that they take three years plus to settle.
Please rest assured that we will work as hard as we can to get your case settled as soon as possible.
How much can I get?
There is no one size fits all solution we can use when it comes to calculating your entitlements.
The amount owed to plaintiffs depends on the severity of their wounds and the state in which they suffered them.
Some of the main things a solicitor will consider when negotiating your entitlements will include.
- Any time off work and lost earnings
- Any future lost earnings
- Any changes in your ability to work
- Care or support, even if given to you for free by family or friends
- Any adaptations you might need to your home or vehicle
- Travel and accommodation expenses
