The West Australian Government, through the Insurance Commission of Western Australia, has a ‘Third-party Insurer Act‘ in place to cover any personal injury compensation as a result of motor vehicle accidents, including motor vehicle accident claims and claiming compensation for car accidents.

Being injured in an unexpected motor vehicle accident can be a life-changing experience. Not only can they be terrifying in the moment, but motor vehicle or road accidents can also result in both physical and psychological/psychiatric injuries, as well as possible damage caused to your car as a result, leading to an insurance claim for damages.

Car accidents are often classified by body part injuries. Some common injuries caused in a motor vehicle accident may include, but not limited to:

  • Whiplash
  • Spine and neck injury
  • Upper limb injury
  • Lower limb injury
  • Head and brain injury
  • Burn injury
  • Facial injury
  • Soft tissue injury
  • Nervous shock
  • Psychological issues
  • Catastrophic injuries often involving brain injury, loss of a limb or loss of sight

Remember, symptoms may often not show up until later, so it’s advisable that you consult your General Practitioner and monitor your symptoms.

For example, a whiplash injury is one of the most common problems caused and can have long term implications for your health and quality of life if not diagnosed early on.

It would be our recommendation to seek a professional injury assessment from your doctor or a treating physician rather than assuming that just because you feel fine after an accident that you have not sustained any immediate or long-term injuries.

Car accident claims can often be a long and complicated process, which is why our team at CLP Legal, one of the leading car accident claim lawyers in Perth, dedicate the time to helping victims who got injured in a car accident with their legal needs, so you can focus on the road to recovery.

Our dedicated team of car accident injury lawyers in Perth can help with the following claims:

  • Car accident injuries;
  • Truck or bus accident injuries;
  • Motorcycle injuries;

In most cases, the first step to take is reporting the accident to the Police. However, if your accident did not result in a vehicle needing to be towed, or if there was no one hurt, then there is no need to report the incident.

Regardless of whether another driver was completely at fault, or you share the partial responsibility, as long as your injury was caused in part or entirely by another careless driver, there are valid grounds for a claim.

When you are involved in a motor vehicle accident, there are many things for which you can make a claim. These can include:

  • Compensation for ongoing pain and suffering
  • Loss of income – past and future
  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Past and future costs for a carer
  • Out of pocket expenses, including travel-related expenses

The amount of compensation you receive from your car or motor vehicle accident claim will vary and is dependent on many factors specific to your situation.

Here are a couple of things that will be used to assess your case to determine your individual outcome:

  • What is the extent and impact of your accident on your health?
  • What is the amount of out-of-pocket expenses you’ve had to cover?
  • How much of your income have you lost as a result of the accident or are likely to lose as a result of your injuries?
  • What are the ongoing treatment costs to care for you, such as physiotherapy and rehabilitation?
  • What care costs might be required where your injuries are serious enough to warrant engaging an independent carer.

While our roads (and the drivers that use them) can sometimes be unpredictable, certain dates and times are safer than others.

There’s no surprise that in a study done by Youi Insurance, it revealed most car accidents occur on weekdays between 8am and 9am and increase again from 3pm through to 6pm, coinciding with school traffic and work commutes. Between the hours of 7pm to 6am, there are fewer collisions and this is likely due to less cars on the roads.

On average, Perth CBD workers spend 59 minutes per day commuting to work. That’s a lot of time on the road every week!

CALL 9339 9600

According to Youi Insurance, there were over 58 different types of collision claims from collision data collected from July 2016 to October 2016.

The following 6 car accident types account for 75% of all Youi collision claims.

  • 23% of all collisions are rear-end
  • 21% of all collisions occur when a car is parked (1.9% of this time, an object has caused the collision)
  • 12.3% occur when someone is reverse parking
  • 11.1% of collisions are a result of the car losing control & hitting an object other than a car
  • 5.4% of all collisions are a result of hitting an animal
  • 3.5% of collisions occur while changing lanes

Some people assume that a no win, no fee agreement means that if you win your case, you incur no fees at all. Unfortunately this isn’t the case.

A conditional costs agreement, often referred to as a ‘no win, no fee’ basis, is typically drafted up by a lawyer and outlines the conditions under which payments are required. Understanding the definition of what is deemed a successful outcome in the agreement is crucial as not all law firms define a successful outcome the same. It is important that you review your costs agreement and discuss with your lawyer the definition of a successful outcome to understand when you might be required to pay professional fees.

Your lawyer may agree to defer their billable hours until a successful outcome is achieved, and will usually deduct their fees from the settlement money you receive as compensation.

A no win, no fee arrangement of this kind is usually on the basis that you agree to meet certain conditions imposed by the law firm, such as you agreeing to follow the firm’s reasonable advice throughout the duration of your case.

However, in the event that the outcome of your case is not successful where court proceedings are involved, whilst it is uncommon, you may still be obligated to pay the lawyer’s fees depending on the conditions you and your law firm have agreed to. Additionally, you may have to pay the other party’s fees as well, particularly if legal proceedings are instigated.
