Motor Vehicle Collisions

In the event of a motor vehicle collision there are two distinct types of potential claims you might make. Claims for injuries sustained and claims for the cost of repairing your vehicle.

If you are injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident in the ACT you are entitled to make a claim under the Motor Accident Injuries Act 2019. This legislation provides a simple scheme that is intended to be navigated by the injured person. Details on how you can make an application can be found on the ACT Government Motor Accident Injuries Commission website. If your injury is severe or your claim becomes complicated it may prove sensible to involve lawyers.

To recoup the costs of repairing damage to a vehicle refer to our debt recovery section.
