No Win, No Fee Injury Lawyer for the Gold Coast

The Plaintiff is the person making the claim (you), and the Defendant, as the term suggests, defends the claim. Many people think that the person who caused the accident actually defends the action and pays the compensation. This is not so. If they are insured, their insurance company will cover the cost of appointing solicitors to defend your action. 

If you are successful, it is the insurance company who pays the compensation—not the defendant personally.

The only circumstance when they will have to pay anything out of their own pockets is if there is no insurance. If this occurs, we will advise you, as it may complicate your action. The only effect that your claim will have, in most circumstances, is that the person who was responsible may have to pay a higher insurance premium.

The amount of time your case takes will depend on a range of factors that are specific to your claim. This includes the severity of your damage and loss incurred. In Queensland, your condition must be stable before your claim can be concluded. Other factors such as children’s cases and disputes of liability can affect the overall timeline.

The amount of compensation you receive for a successful claim will depend on a range of factors, including the nature and extent of your damage caused and how this affects your work and home life.

 Among other things, you may receive compensation for:

• Pain and suffering
• Permanent impairment
• Loss of earnings
• Medical expenses
• Rehabilitation costs

We understand that the prospect of court proceedings can be confronting for many people. However, in most situations, cases will settle outside of court. In some cases, court proceedings are issued and the claim is still settled before reaching court. If your claim cannot be settled, Dwyer Law Group is ready to offer professional representation to support your claim.

You may be eligible for compensation to cover several kinds of economic and non-economic suffering. This may include medical and rehabilitation costs related to your accident. To be eligible for medical and rehabilitative compensation, a doctor must certify that the treatment is necessary in relation to your claim.

Strict time limits may apply to accident compensation claims, with individuals having as little as 9 months from the day of the accident to make a claim.
