A Brisbane Personal Injury Lawyers Firm
For a personal injury claim to be successful, there has to have been a situation where you were injured as a result of the action or inaction of another party. There are a variety of scenarios that may have played out where this can occur, and as a personal injury solicitor and law firm in Brisbane, we see a broad range of cases. Consequently, we have the experience and skills that you can rely on to proceed with your personal injury claim.
What Does Personal Injury Law Cover?
Personal injury claims can apply to more circumstances than you may initially assume. Whilst you probably have seen popular commercials of people tripping on cracked pavements or slipping on wet floors, the scope of what personal injury covers is far-reaching.
It also includes medical negligence, accidents in the workplace, accidents in public places, motor vehicle accidents, mining industry accidents, and emotional trauma.
How Do You Know If You Have a Personal Injury Claim in Brisbane?
A common reason people become skeptical about pursuing an injury claim is uncertainty as to whether they are entitled to compensation for their injury.
If you’re in this position, you may be asking yourself questions like:
- Are the circumstances my injury occurred grounds for a valid claim?
- Is an entity liable enough to pay compensation?
- Do I even have a case?
It’s commonplace to think the answer to all of the aforementioned questions is no. However, you have formed this conclusion without speaking to an industry expert who can provide you with accurate, reliable and up-to-date advice on your specific situation.
What Injuries Can You File a Claim for in Brisbane?
In a personal injury case, several things can be claimed. You may soon find that most of them apply to your situation. Access our Personal Injury Claims blog for more information.
In Brisbane, you can file a claim for compensation for the following:
General damages
If your injury causes you damages which include pain and suffering, you may file for compensation on that basis.
Paid care and assistance
If you have to hire help or pay for tasks you can’t perform as a result of an injury sustained, you may have grounds for claim too.
Income Loss
If you suffer any income loss — past, present, and future — because your injury hinders you from doing your job, you may have a claim.
Medical and rehabilitation cost
Accrued medical bills (past, present, and future) that may come from your pocket are also grounds for compensation claims. An expert Brisbane personal injury lawyer can help you get them back.
Loss of superannuation benefits
If your ability to receive superannuation benefits is impacted as a result of the injury, you may file a compensation claim.
Something to note here is that the amount you can access as compensation for your injury claim differs with every case. Damages are calculated as per the circumstances surrounding them and thus, every case is different.
