What kind of damage and loss can I claim for?
- You can claim for more than the costs of your medical treatment. Insofar as possible compensation for injuries sustained in a public place aims to put you in the position you would have been in had the accident not occurred.
- You can claim for:
- pain and suffering;
- rehabilitation costs such as physiotherapy;
- care and assistance costs provided by loved ones or external providers related to your medical or other special needs following your injury;
- costs of commercial care such as lawn or garden maintenance;
- medical and other expenses associated with your injuries; and
- loss of wages or earnings.
