What should you know after a serious car accident in Perth?
After a serious crash in Perth, you’re dealing with your recovery and with an unfamiliar compensation system at the same time. Western Australian claims run through the state's Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurance scheme, managed by the Insurance Commission of Western Australia (ICWA). CTP is the insurance attached to every registered vehicle that covers people injured on the road.
ICWA's forms and follow-ups are familiar ground for us. Passing them across frees you to concentrate on getting better.
