FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

About personal injury claims in NSW

In Newcastle, common claims include traffic accidents, public liability, and dust disease cases, each influenced by specific local factors:

  • Dust disease claims have gained renewed attention following the 2021 diagnosis of black lung disease in a Hunter Valley coal worker, the first case since the 1970s. This highlighted that occupational diseases like black lung, asbestos-related illnesses, and silicosis remain a serious risk in mining communities.
  • Motor vehicle accidents frequently occur on major routes like the Pacific Highway, Hunter Expressway, and roads connecting Newcastle to surrounding towns.
  • Public liability claims commonly involve incidents in industrial zones and public spaces such as shopping centres, including Westfield Kotara and Newcastle’s CBD.

If you’ve been affected, don’t wait, contact our Newcastle team early to protect your rights and maximise your claim.

In NSW, personal injury claims usually must be lodged within three years from the date of the injury. However, the legal time limit can be extended under the discovery rule, meaning the clock starts when you first become aware, or reasonably should have become aware, of the injury and its connection to the incident.

For example, if an injury or illness (like dust disease) isn’t diagnosed until years after exposure, your claim period may begin from that later date, not the original incident. Additionally, if you were a minor when the injury occurred, different rules may apply, potentially extending the deadline.

Because these time limits can be complex, it’s important to contact our Newcastle office early. This ensures you don’t miss critical deadlines and allows us to advise you on the best way to protect your claim.

Every case is unique, but you may be eligible to claim compensation for:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost income due to injury
  • Recovery and rehabilitation costs
  • Pain and suffering
  • Ongoing care needs.

Our Newcastle personal injury lawyers will provide a clear breakdown and estimate of the compensation you could receive.

The personal injury claims process at our Newcastle office begins with a no-cost initial consultation. From there, we:

  1. Conduct an in-depth evaluation of your claim
  2. Gather all necessary supporting evidence
  3. Liaise directly with insurance providers
  4. Work towards a resolution or represent you in court if needed.

Throughout the process, we keep you fully informed and prioritise empowering you to make key decisions when needed.
