Car accidents, work accidents and accidents in a public place
You may have been in a car accident, or a work accident, a slip trip or fall in a public place or you might
have even suffered at the hand of a medical professional as many of our callers have.
Whatever type of accident you have had, there are steps that need to be followed for your health and in
support of an accident injury compensation claim.
Step 1: Gather all the details. Write down everything you remember as soon as you can after the
accident as sometimes details can be forgotten.
Step 2: Seek medical attention and follow the doctor’s orders
Step 3: Report the incident as soon as possible after the accident has occurred. This may be to your
employer or to an insurance company. If you need help with this or to obtain the relevant forms such as
accident compensation claims form contact the Australian Personal Injury Helpline.
Car accident claims
Car accidents can be traumatic. Stop and think before you take action. And more importantly get the
right advice. Not taking the right precautions or getting the right advice can leave you in an unfortunate
position regarding compensation. In order to be fully compensated and get everything to which you are
entitled to under the law.
Work accident claims
If you have suffered an accident at work you need to report the incident to your boss. Employers have
work compensation insurance to cover accidents and injuries at work. If an accident has left you with a
permanent impairment and may have been ‘preventable’ then your employer may be negligent. When a
claim for compensation is processed it is not your employer who pays the compensation but their motor
accident compensation insurer i.e. Work Cover.
Slip trip or fall in a public place
If you have suffered a slip trip or fall in a public place through no fault of your own you may be entitled
to injury compensation. Contact Aussie injury today to find out if you have a claim or workplace injury
