Frequently Asked Questions
After an injury, it’s common to feel confused about your rights or whether you’re able to make a claim. The process can seem complicated when you’re already focused on recovery. That’s why we’ve put together clear answers to the questions injured clients ask us most frequently.
Most Queensland personal injury claims have strict time limits and must begin within 3 years of the injury, but many require earlier notice:
• Motor vehicle: 9 months or 1 month after seeing a lawyer
• WorkCover: 6 months
• Public liability: 9 months
Because deadlines are strict, seek legal advice quickly. Getting advice under personal injury law helps protect your rights.We assist with compensation claims involving motor vehicle accidents, truck or bus accidents, public liability incidents, and workplace injuries covered by workers’ compensation or WorkCover, as well as other situations caused by the negligence of others. We work with clients in Arundel, Biggera Waters, Labrador and surrounding areas experiencing whiplash injury, spinal injury, permanent disability, psychological injuries and traumatic brain injury. Our personal injury legal services help you understand your options and the claims process, assisting with coverage of medical expenses and potential future medical expenses under Queensland’s personal injury laws.
Strong evidence for a compensation claim includes medical records, imaging results, receipts for medical expenses, proof of lost wages and reports outlining future medical expenses. Our personal injury lawyers can help gather the right documents if you have suffered an unexpected injury or ongoing impacts from someone else’s negligence.
Most personal injury claims in Queensland settle without going to court. Your lawyers will negotiate directly with insurers during the legal process for insurance claims and provide legal representation if your matter is disputed. A court hearing is only needed if liability is disputed or a fair outcome cannot be reached. Personal injury law requires genuine efforts to resolve matters before court proceedings begin, and a good personal injury lawyer will help you to resolve your claim as efficiently as possible.
A no-win, no-fee arrangement means you do not pay legal fees unless your personal injury compensation claim succeeds. There are no upfront costs, and your lawyer covers expenses during the legal process. Many Queensland firms add an uplift fee of up to 25%. Howard does not. He also caps his fees at 35% instead of the 50% permitted by legislation. The result is simple: you keep more of your compensation.
