A car accident injury claim can be made if you have suffered injury in a car accident which wasn’t your fault, but resulted due to negligent driving of another party. Thus, in a car accident injury claim, two factors become of paramount importance:

(1) Liability of the car accident
(2) Calculation of damages due to the injuries caused by the car accident

Claim for car accident compensation can be filed only where:

1. The car accident results in death
2. The car accident injury includes fractured bones
3. The car accident injury leads to permanent or serious disfigurement
4. The car accident injury results in loss of a "sense", i.e. hearing, sight, taste or smell;
5. The car accident injury results in loss of a body part
6. The medical expenses due to the car accident were high

You can also file for a car accident claim or seek car accident compensation on behalf of your spouse or dependants if the car accident resulted in their death or severe injury. However, you will need expert advice for a car accident injury claim as the onus of the car accident can be very difficult to prove. In a car accident compensation case, any car accident claim can be made only if it can be proved that the car accident injury resulted solely as an intentional assault or negligent driving by the other party resulting in a car accident.
