Making a motor vehicle compensation claim
If you’re injured in any type of vehicle, whether a car, truck, motorbike or bicycle,, then you may be entitled to compensation.
The Personal Injury Lawyers have an auto accident claim calculator which we believe is one of the best. It is invaluable as an auto accident settlement calculator to quickly assess the value of any potential claim.
You could be eligible to make a claim if you have suffered a loss of income. Claims can also be made for injuries like whiplash, which can take a long time to recover from and impact on every aspect of your life. Sometimes a compensation claim is the only way to get enough money so that you can move on with your life. Use our car insurance claim calculator then contact us for help.

Our car claim calculator will help you understand the level of compensation you may be eligible for, but it’s best to also talk to one of our car accident lawyers. The car crash calculator is just part of the process. Our lawyers will guide, advise and stand by you until settlement is reached.

What can you claim for?
After an accident, 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. The car crash settlement calculator will show you the potential claim value.
The use of a road accident claim calculator is a great place to start, but you also need to talk to one of our experienced PI Lawyers to pursue your claim.
Some examples of what you can claim are:
- Hospital and medical bills
- Rehabilitation expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of earnings
- Loss of enjoyment of life
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 much will I get from my car accident settlement?
How much compensation you can claim 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.
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.
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
As one of the leading personal injury law firms in Australia, we’ve settled many claims on behalf of clients following a car or vehicle accident. These types of claims can deliver compensation in the thousands of dollars. For a quick estimate of how much you can claim for, check out the car injury claim calculator.
One often searched phrase after a car accident is “money, how much will I get?” You are not alone and it’s understandable as care and time off work adds up.
Hence our car accident compensation claim calculator is a useful tool to help you know where you stand. After using the car injury calculator, contact one of our accident claim experts to guide you through the rest of the process.
