REDCLIFFE, Australia - AussieJournal -- If you've been involved in a car accident, it's important to understand how long you have to make a claim. At Crew Legal, we work with individuals and families across Kippa-Ring, the Redcliffe Peninsula, North Lakes and surrounding areas helping them navigate the legal process with clarity and confidence.
Time limits apply to both injury and property damage claims, and missing a deadline could affect your right to compensation. Here's a breakdown of the key time limits anyone involved in a car accident should know:
CTP injury claims time limits
Under the Motor Accident Insurance Act 1994 (as amended), a Notice of Accident Claim Form must be served:
Where the registration number of the at fault vehicle is known – within 9 months of the date of the accident. If outside of that period, there is a continuing obligation to serve the Notice of Accident Form but it must also include a reasonable excuse for delay in service of the Notice;

Where the registration number of the at fault vehicle is not known – a Notice of Accident Claim Form must be served upon the Nominal Defendant within 3 months of the date of the accident. If a Notice is not served within 3 months, there is a requirement to serve the Notice within 9 months of the date of the accident with a reasonable excuse for delay. If a Notice is not served on the Nominal Defendant within 9 months of the date of the accident, the claim is statute barred.
Under the provisions of the Limitations of Actions Act 1974 a Court proceeding must be filed in respect of the personal injury claim within 3 years of the date of the injury or the injured person's right to claim may be statute barred.
It is very important that advice be sought from a legal practitioner at an early stage following a car accident. Visit our team in Redcliffe, or book an appointment via our website at https://crewlegal.com.au/ to discuss your case.
