What does CTP compensation cover?
After motor vehicle accidents, it can be hard to know the extent to which your injuries will affect your life. Sometimes it can feel like you’re spiralling out of control and your world has been turned upside down by what’s happened.
With our years of expertise in bringing about successful accident claims, we know the best way to claim for both your immediate and future pain and suffering, including any income loss. This includes lost wages and other forms of financial loss, such as reduced earning capacity or future income. Compensation claims may also include medical treatment expenses, rehabilitation, and travel costs directly related to your recovery. The car crash settlement calculator will show you the potential claim value.
It’s important to note that everyone’s case is different. Our car accident lawyers will let you know the full extent of what you can claim after we have a better understanding of your particular situation.
The first step is to use our road accident compensation calculator. After answering a few simple questions, the car accident estimate calculator will provide you with an estimated compensation sum. Then you can talk to one of our Personal Injury Lawyers to fill in the gaps and get your claim started.
How is car accident compensation calculated in Queensland?
How much compensation you can claim after a car accident is based on your injuries, age, loss of earnings, care both now and in the future, out-of-pocket expenses, and possible future expenses such as surgery.
In most cases, the amount of your CTP compensation is calculated based on several key factors, including your injuries, age, lost income, medical costs, and your future needs. Once your injuries have stabilised, we help you get expert medical evidence to assess what your condition means for your future. We work with you to help you gather enough evidence to ensure you get the outcome you need. In some cases, a one-off lump sum payout may be awarded to cover your total assessed losses.
The motor vehicle compensation amount or payout is usually determined by:
- How bad your injuries are
- Your age
- How much you have lost and will lose in wages
- How much care you will need
- How much money you have paid and will have to pay out of your own pocket
Compensation also includes general damages, which covers non-economic loss compensation such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and the overall impact your injuries have on your quality of life. In most cases, the level of general damages is assessed using an injury scale value, which reflects the severity and long-term impact of your injury.
