Motorbike Accident Lawyers

There are various kinds of injuries that could form the basis for a compensation case in NSW if they occur as a result of an accident, including minor or serious injuries. The merit of a claim is assessed on a case-by-case basis, as each case can be unique.

A motorbike accident claim is generally made against the compulsory third party (CTP) insurer (‘Greenslip’) of the vehicle deemed most at fault; however, claims can still be made where no other vehicles are involved, or you cannot identify the other vehicle that caused the accident. In these circumstances, it is highly recommended that you seek legal advice from a personal injury lawyer, such as Burke Mead Lawyers, as strict conditions apply. 

To help your personal injury lawyers understand your case you should gather as much evidence of your injury as possible, including details of the incident, the assessment of your injury, and proof of economic loss (records of time taken off work, doctors’ certificates, receipts for treatment, etc.). 

Using this information, your legal team can assess the potential outcome of your case, determine if you were to pursue compensation and determine the next steps.

Compensation for a motorbike injury may cover a range of things, including:

• Past and future income loss.
• Pain and suffering as a result of the injury.
• Medical expenses and treatments.
• Domestic assistance and/or care.

In NSW there are no “out of pocket” costs in many compensation claim cases, and many law firms operate under a ‘no win, no fee’ promise. However, we understand finances can be complicated and can discuss all financial information during the initial obligation-free consultation.
