Whiplash Claims

Whiplash injury is most commonly the result of a motor vehicle accident, typically due to the impact of another vehicle causing you to be jolted suddenly. Whiplash can also be caused by other accidents, such as an accident at work or in a public place.

Whatever accident caused your whiplash injury, your expert whiplash lawyer can investigate your options to claim for compensation.

Where your injury was caused by a rear or side-on collision in a motor vehicle accident, you should typically be eligible to access compensation for your injuries, lost income and other expenses or losses.

In the event of an accident, your finances can be one of your biggest concerns – especially if you are unable to work. That’s why it’s comforting to know that all our claims (yours included) are run under our No Win, No Fee, No Problems Guarantee.

Whiplash Compensation Claim Process Brisbane, QLD

However you sustained your Whiplash injury, the first thing you should do is see your GP and seek treatment and pain management. Sometimes the symptoms of a whiplash injury can take time to develop, in some circumstances you may not experience immediate pain, but slowly develop headaches and neck pain at a later date.

If your injury occurred in a motor vehicle accident, and the police did not attend the scene, you should report the accident to the police at your earliest convenience.

After any accident, once you have sought medical attention, you should contact an expert whiplash injury lawyer as soon as is reasonably possible. One of our expert whiplash lawyers will talk through what happened to you and let you know if you have a right to a compensation claim.

Calculating Whiplash Compensation in Brisbane, QLD

For your whiplash lawyer to calculate the amount of compensation you may be eligible to claim, a number of things need to happen first. You will need to seek ongoing treatment for your injury (which your whiplash lawyer can ensure isn’t an out of pocket cost for you), and your injuries will need to settle to a point where they are considered stable and stationary (unlikely to improve or deteriorate).

You will also need to see a number of specialists, so that they can report on your injuries and the ongoing impact they will have on your life and ability to work.

The amount of compensation you receive will depend directly on the ongoing impact that your injuries have on your life. We understand that your injuries can impact every area of your life and your whiplash lawyer will be sure to investigate every avenue to ensure you receive your best possible result.
