It is important to note, the Queensland law requires the person considering court action to give notice to the person or company they want to file the claim against.
Following this, a compulsory conference must be organised to identify and clarify the issues in the dispute, encourage a settlement of the dispute and to make orders and give directions that will be suitable to resolve the dispute.
Our truck accident lawyers will help you through this process.
When the initial settlement offer is not accepted at the compulsory conference, there is a 9-month window from the date of injury, damages or death to lodge a formal notice of claim form, or 1 month after hiring or consulting a lawyer to represent or make a truck accident claim.
Not meeting these time limits requires a reasonable excuse for the delay to be provided. If the reasonable excuse for the delay is accepted, then the normal 3-year limitation period applies.
