Frequently Asked Questions
When should you contact a personal injury lawyer?
If you have been injured and you believe that someone else was to blame for your injury, you should contact a personal injury lawyer. You must act fast, as people only have three years from the date of the injury within which to bring a claim. There are other timeframes that may be relevant as well.
How much is a typical injury settlement?
The amount that a person receives for settlement of their personal injury claim differs from person to person. There are a number of different factors that are considered when determining the amount a person should receive. The severity of their injury, the impact it has had upon their ability to earn an income, and any treatment they have needed in the past (or will need into the future) are all relevant.
How do I sue for injury?
The procedure for commencing a claim for damages for an injury differs depending on how the injury occurred. For example, the procedure for commencing proceedings in relation to a work injury is different to the procedure for commencing proceedings in relation to a motor vehicle accident. The best idea is to speak to a lawyer.
What is a good settlement offer?
The amount that a person receives for settlement of their personal injury claim differs from person to person. There are a number of different factors that are considered when determining the amount a person should receive. The severity of their injury, the impact it has had upon their ability to earn an income, and any treatment they have needed in the past (or will need into the future) are all relevant.
How long do personal injury claims take?
Personal injuries claims can take longer than some other claims. This is because claims cannot be settled until the person’s injury becomes stable (i.e. it is not going to get any better or worse). It takes time for an injury to reach this stage. Also, there are timeframes set out in the legislation that can drag things out.
How is pain and suffering compensation calculated?
In Queensland, general damages (which used to be called damages for pain and suffering) are calculated by comparing the severity of the injury against specific pieces of legislation and/or previous cases.
What is a work injury/damages/workers’ compensation claim?
A work injury/damages/workers’ compensation claim is a claim for damages for injuries that a person sustained in the course of their employment. If you have been injured at work and you believe that someone else was to blame for your injury, you should contact a personal injury lawyer. You must act fast, as people only have three years from the date of the injury within which to bring a claim. There are other timeframes that may be relevant as well.
Can you get compensation without going to court?
In Queensland, the majority of personal injuries claims settle before ending up at court. In Queensland, it is quite rare for a personal injuries claim to go to a trial.
What is the average settlement for pain and suffering?
The amount that a person receives for settlement of their personal injury claim differs from person to person. There are a number of different factors that are considered when determining the amount a person should receive. The severity of their injury, the impact it has had upon their ability to earn an income, and any treatment they have needed in the past (or will need into the future) are all relevant.
Can I make a personal injury claim myself?
The answer technically is yes, however it is not recommended. Personal injuries law is very complicated and it would be very easy for a person who is not a lawyer to make a serious mistake. Also, a person who is not a lawyer would not know all of the things that they can claim for as part of the injury claim.
