Free claim assessments after road accidents in Australia

In summary: A free claim assessment tells you whether you have a claim worth pursuing before you commit to anything. Ours takes minutes online or one phone call, and it doesn't oblige you to continue.

What should you know before asking for a free claim assessment?

Plenty of people sit on a possible claim because they're not sure it's worth a phone call. A free claim assessment exists for exactly that doubt. You don't need certainty to ask. After a road accident you're likely juggling treatment, time off work and questions about what comes next, and each state runs its own road accident scheme, the TAC in Victoria and CTP schemes elsewhere, so a first conversation explains which scheme applies to you and what information you'll need.

If a claim is there, Maurice Blackburn picks it up from that first conversation and handle the forms, the insurer and the deadlines.

A free claim assessment is usually an initial check of your situation. It gives you an early sense of where you stand, though it doesn't mean your claim has been accepted or that a particular outcome will follow.

Who can assess a road accident injury claim for free?

In Australia, some legal services that handle motor vehicle injury claims offer a free initial claim check. We offer a free online claim check for road accident injuries, and we handle road accident claims across Australia, except in New South Wales and South Australia.

The assessment is more useful if you can describe:

  • how the accident happened
  • when it happened
  • your injuries and medical treatment
  • any time away from work
  • any letters from the insurer or scheme

We can explain what's available under the relevant state scheme and whether further advice will help.

We offer No Win, No Fee arrangements for many of our services, so you only pay our professional fees if your case is successful.
