How is the compensation amount determined?

Calculating the compensation value can be straightforward when considering medical bills and repair expenses. However, determining the compensation for pain and suffering becomes more complex. Based on the extent of the injuries, a multiplier is applied to the total medical bills and lost income. This multiplier ranges from 1.5 to 10.

Your benefit pay is primarily based on what you were earning the 13 weeks before the accident or injury, however if you were not employed for substantially the whole 13 weeks there are alternative methods.
