How a Car Accident
Claim Works

Accident benefits claims are awarded no matter who was at fault for the accident.  There are many types of compensation available. Compensation for these claims includes income replacement benefits, medical and rehabilitation benefits among others. If you were not at fault for the accident, you may be able to file a claim against the person who was at fault for the accident and recover compensation for your injuries.  These are called Tort claims.

These claims can yield compensation for a variety of types of damages including medical and rehabilitation therapy expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. If you are disabled and unable to work due to the accident, you may also need to start a claim for disability benefits as well. Compensation amount and type will depend on the type of claim filed, who was at fault, and the extent of your injuries.
