Passenger Injury Claims In Queensland

Understand Your Options As An Injured Passenger

As a passenger, you had no control over what happened, yet you may be left dealing with injuries, time off work & ongoing treatment. Many passengers also worry about claiming when the driver is a friend or family member.

Whatever vehicle you were in, we’ll look at what happened & explain what you could claim.

Which Insurer Covers Your Injuries

If the driver of your vehicle, or another driver, caused or contributed to the crash, a claim may be made to their vehicle’s Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurer.

We’ll manage the insurance side for you, so you won’t need to chase anyone for answers.

Claiming When Someone You Know Was Driving

Many passengers hesitate to claim when a friend, partner or family member was behind the wheel. The claim is generally made to the vehicle’s CTP insurer, not the driver personally.

We’ll handle the claim with care & discretion, helping protect the relationships that matter to you.

When A Seatbelt Wasn't Worn

Not wearing a seatbelt may reduce compensation if it made your injuries worse, but you may still be able to claim.

We’ll give you an honest view of how it may affect your claim.

The Sooner, The Better

Passenger injury claims have strict deadlines, and details about the vehicles & drivers involved are easiest to collect early.

Request Your Free Case Review, & a senior lawyer will reach you within 24 hours to help you get started.

No Win, No Fee

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Claim If I Was A Passenger In A Car Accident?

Yes, you may be able to claim if the driver of your vehicle or another driver caused or contributed to the crash. The claim is generally made to the relevant vehicle’s CTP insurer.

Can I Claim If A Friend Or Family Member Was Driving?

Generally, yes. Your claim goes to their vehicle’s CTP insurer, so you’re not suing them personally.

Will Claiming Affect The Driver's Insurance Premiums?

Generally, no. In Queensland, CTP premiums depend on the type of vehicle, not on whether claims have been made.

What If I Wasn't Wearing A Seatbelt?

You may still be able to claim, but your compensation could be reduced if it made your injuries worse.

What If The Driver Was Drunk?

You may still be able to claim, but your compensation may be reduced if you knew the driver was impaired. We’ll explain how this may apply to you.

What Should I Do After Being Injured As A Passenger?

Get medical attention, then note who was driving & which vehicles were involved. Keep records of your symptoms, treatment & costs too.

Do I Need A Lawyer For A Passenger Injury Claim?

Not necessarily, but legal support can keep things simple, especially when the driver is someone you know.

Do You Offer "No Win, No Fee" For Passenger Injury Claims?

Yes. Rin Kim Law provides No Win, No Fee services for eligible passenger injury claims. We’ll explain the terms & eligibility before you decide whether to proceed.
