Google review“Dear Mr Gajic I write to compliment Helen Voss to you. I telephone Gajic Lawyers today at about 2.30pm regarding a personal injury claim that I currently have in the ACT Supreme Court against Qantas. (I was dumped by the my lawyers last week. See attached). Helen picked up the call even though she works in a different area of the law. Helen was an absolute delight to deal with and could not have been more helpful, caring and understanding. Just a lovely lady. She took some of my details and checked with your solicitors, then telephoned me back within just a few minutes. She actually felt bad for me given that Gajic Lawyers were not able to take on my matter! What an asset Helen is to your team. Kind Regards Ross Kennedy”

Car Accident Claims in Victoria
Car accident claims in Victoria are primarily handled through the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), a government-owned organisation that provides support to people injured in transport accidents. These claims can cover injuries sustained as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian in a transport accident within the state.
Commonly Asked Questions About Motor Vehicle Accident Claims in Victoria
How do I make a TAC claim after a car accident in Victoria?
You can make a TAC claim online, by phone, or through a myTAC app within 12 months of the accident. You’ll need to provide details about the accident and any initial medical treatment.
What benefits does the TAC provide?
TAC benefits can include medical treatment, income support, travel and household support services, and lump sum compensation for permanent injuries.
Can I claim compensation if I was at fault in the accident?
Yes, the TAC scheme is a no-fault system, meaning you can receive benefits regardless of who caused the accident. However, being at fault may affect your ability to make a common law claim.
What's the time limit for lodging a TAC claim?
You should lodge your claim as soon as possible, but the official time limit is 12 months from the date of the accident or when the injury first appears.
Can I claim for psychological injuries after a car accident?
Yes, the TAC covers treatment for psychological injuries resulting from a transport accident, including conditions like PTSD, depression, or anxiety.
What is a serious injury certificate and when do I need one?
A serious injury certificate is required to make a common law claim for additional compensation. It’s typically needed for severe, long-term injuries that significantly impact your life.
How does the TAC assess my injuries and determine compensation?
The TAC assesses injuries based on medical reports, independent medical examinations, and other relevant evidence. Compensation is determined by factors such as the severity of injuries and their impact on your life.
Can I claim loss of earnings through the TAC?
Yes, if your injuries prevent you from working, you may be eligible for loss of earnings benefits. These can cover up to 85% of your pre-accident earnings for a specified period.
What if the at-fault driver was uninsured or fled the scene?
The TAC covers all transport accidents in Victoria, even if the at-fault driver was uninsured or unidentified. You can still make a claim in these situations.
Can passengers claim compensation for car accident injuries?
Yes, passengers injured in a transport accident can claim compensation through the TAC, regardless of who was at fault in the accident.
How does the TAC handle interstate accidents?
The TAC covers Victorian residents injured in interstate accidents. If you’re not a Victorian resident, you may need to claim through the equivalent scheme in your home state.
What's the difference between a no-fault claim and a common law claim?
A no-fault claim provides immediate benefits regardless of fault, while a common law claim allows you to sue for additional compensation if you have a serious injury and someone else was at fault.
