Personal Injury

Coastal Compensation provides proficient legal representation for individuals involved in car accident claims in New South Wales under the Green Slip insurance system, governed by the Motor Accidents Compensation Act (MACA). Claimants generally need to demonstrate fault by a motor vehicle's owner or driver to seek compensation for injuries. The MACA Scheme extends to drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and motorcyclists affected by accidents. However, certain circumstances such as blameless accidents, injuries to children under 16, or catastrophic injuries offer avenues for compensation without establishing fault. Additionally, claims under the Workers Compensation Act are possible for injuries occurring during commutes to or from work, even if the claimant was at fault. Insurers are typically required to cover medical expenses, wage loss, pain and suffering, and legal costs, subject to caps and thresholds. In the realm of public liability injuries, Coastal Compensation Law is adept in managing claims, particularly those involving supermarket settings. These claims encompass various locations including supermarket premises, shopping centres, car parks, and associated venues. To pursue a supermarket injury claim in NSW, it is essential to prove negligence on the part of the responsible party. While venues must exercise reasonable care, they are also afforded certain defences, such as routine inspections and cleaning protocols. Claims can address medical costs, loss of income, domestic assistance, and pain and suffering, although contributory negligence may affect the outcome if the injured party shares some responsibility for the incident.
