Pedestrian injury lawyer FAQs.

You have one year from the date of the accident or the date when your injury first manifests itself to submit your claim.

However, the TAC may also accept your claim if it’s made within three years of the accident or the date when the injury first manifests itself, and you have reasonable grounds for the delay in making your claim.

In Victoria, there are three ways you may be able to claim a lump sum payout as a pedestrian:

  1. If you weren’t at fault in the accident, you may be entitled to common law compensation lump sums for loss of past and future earnings, and pain and suffering.
  2. If you have an impairment assessed at 11% or more you may be entitled to a permanent impairment lump sum.
  3. If you can’t return to work following your accident, you may be eligible for a TPD lump sum through your super fund.

Greetings, I’m Usman. In 2019, I experienced an accident while under workers comp. Over the span of four years, Mimi, Caitlin, and Yasmine from the Law Partners team provided invaluable assistance in navigating my dealings with Icare. Their support led to an exceptional experience, securing all necessary approvals, including surgeries. Subsequently, Minaa, Vicky, and Sakeena from CTP facilitated an outstanding outcome with my claim, displaying consistently prompt responses and diligent pursuit of every matter. Overall, I couldn’t recommend a better company. Learn from my experience: before initiating any claim or filling out any form, consult with Law Partners. This is where I made mistakes by downplaying my injuries.

Just had my first phone call, and so far feel relieved. Matthew who took my initial inquiry was empathetic and professional and Antonela who discussed my potential case was professional, courteous and warm. It made me feel like someone was on my side and I wasn’t alone. I wish I’d called sooner.

I’m writing to express my heartfelt appreciation and gratitude for your highly professional and incredibly competent services.
The help, support and guidance I’ve had from Angy Basal has been second to none! Not only has my injury claim taken place whilst I had to move back overseas, but it was negotiated and mediated seamlessly though-out, even being in complete opposite time zones! Making the seemingly impossible, possible..I will forever be grateful for your determination and kindness, thank you so much Angy!

I would like to give a huge sincere thank you to Chantille and her team who helped me with probably the most difficult period of my life, Chantille was caring, honest, thoughtful, understanding and listened to me without judgment and importantly was supportive, I was updated every step of the way and informed of all the proceedings, time frames and possible outcomes.

Chantille was professional and made me feel comfortable at all times, she is caring and worked diligently with me to achieve the best possible outcome, I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. Every person I came in contact with was genuine and eager to assist in every way possible from the receptionists all the way up, absolutely wonderful people.

Thank you all for being there in my time of need and thank for laughing at my jokes bless you all.

Andrew and Kylie have been amazing, they always go above and beyond with their service. I was having a really bad time with my workers compensation claim. I was referred to Law Partners, they fought for my rights and made the insurance company accountable. I finally had my surgery which I needed to help me recover.

I look forward to working with them in the future on other aspects of my claim. This team really cares! You are not treated like a number… unlike the insurance companies.

Thanks to Law Partners for everything I feel safe and secure knowingly I can trust they are looking out for me always. Highly recommend for their professional, quick and responsive service. Like I said Exceptional Service!!!

I would like to thank Gerald and Emily at Law Partners Melbourne for their great service. They explained and kept me informed throughout the process. It took less than 3 months to finalise my claim. I would recommend Law Partners to anyone seeking assistance on their TPD claim.
