Why Hire a Townsville Personal Injury Lawyer?

When injured in an accident resulting from someone else’s negligence, getting free advice from a Townsville personal injury lawyer is your best option. Making a personal injury claim is complex and full of traps, especially when the other party rejects liability or multiple parties are involved.

Typically, an insurance company funds a lump sum payout and tries to take advantage of your ignorance of the law by making you a low settlement offer or rejecting your claim. Thankfully, an experienced personal injury lawyer provides effective legal representation and negotiates your best outcome.

The value of your personal injury compensation depends on how much your injury has changed your life now and in the future. Your legal right to claim damages is outlined in the Personal Injuries Proceedings Act 2002 (QLD), and considers these ‘heads of damages’ when calculating compensation:

  • The severity and nature of your injuries
  • How much your life has been altered
  • Your occupation and current income

An injured person can claim damages for:

  • Lost earnings – past and future
  • Past and future medical costs
  • Rehabilitation costs and treatment expenses
  • Medical-related travel expenses
  • Lost enjoyment of life
  • Cost of domestic assistance

You might be eligible for coverage under one or more of the following, depending on the details of your accident:

Strict Time Limits for Personal Injury Claims

In Queensland, there is typically a strict three-year time limit from the accident date to file court proceedings for a personal injury claim. However, there are shorter time frames for some kinds of motor vehicle accidents.
