Understanding Car Accident Compensation on the Sunshine Coast
Recovering from a car accident involves more than just physical recovery. Managing medical expenses, lost income, and insurer communication can quickly become overwhelming. Rin Kim Law helps simplify this process by explaining your rights under Queensland’s motor vehicle accident laws and managing every legal step on your behalf. Our goal is to achieve a fair and timely outcome, allowing you to focus on your health and well-being.
What Can You Claim Compensation For?
Depending on your circumstances, you may be entitled to claim for:
- Medical treatment and rehabilitation expenses
- Loss of income and superannuation
- Pain and suffering
- Ongoing care or support needs
- Travel and other out-of-pocket expenses related to your injury
Who Can Claim Compensation?
You may be eligible to make a car accident compensation claim on the Sunshine Coast if you were injured as a driver, passenger, pedestrian, or cyclist. Family members of someone who was injured or killed in a car accident may also have the right to claim. To qualify, the accident must have involved a registered motor vehicle and been caused, at least in part, by another person’s negligence. Both physical and psychological injuries are recognised under Queensland law.
CTP Insurance and Your Rights
In Queensland, all registered vehicles must have Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance. This insurance covers personal injuries caused by negligent drivers but does not cover vehicle or property damage; those are handled under separate comprehensive insurance policies, which are optional.
If your accident involved an unregistered or unidentified vehicle, such as in a hit-and-run, you may still be able to make a claim through the Nominal Defendant, a Queensland Government body that acts as the insurer in these cases. Rin Kim Law assists with lodging CTP claims correctly, managing insurer negotiations, and ensuring you receive the full compensation you’re entitled to under the law.
