Helping injured people in Belconnen

Belconnen is one of Canberra's busiest districts, home to the town centre and Westfield Belconnen, the University of Canberra, Commonwealth and ACT Government offices, and two major hospitals in Bruce: North Canberra Hospital and the University of Canberra Hospital.

That mix shapes the claims we see from Belconnen clients: workplace injuries among public servants, health workers, retail and hospitality staff; road accidents on Belconnen Way, William Hovell Drive, Ginninderra Drive and the Gungahlin Drive Extension; slips and falls in shopping centres and car parks; and medical negligence claims involving local hospitals and clinics.

Areas we cover here: Belconnen town centre, Bruce, Cook, Macquarie, Aranda, Page, Scullin, Hawker, Weetangera, Kaleen, Giralang, Lawson, McKellar, Evatt, Florey, Melba, Spence, Charnwood, Dunlop, Macgregor, Holt, Higgins, Latham, Fraser, Flynn and Strathnairn.

Comcare and ACT workers compensation

Many Belconnen workers are Commonwealth public servants covered by Comcare rather than the ACT scheme. We check which scheme applies before anything else.

Belconnen injury claim FAQs

I work in a Commonwealth office in Belconnen. Which workers compensation scheme covers me?
Most Commonwealth public servants are covered by Comcare under the Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1988 (Cth), not the ACT scheme. Employees of ACT Government agencies and private businesses are usually covered by the ACT scheme. We confirm which applies at your free claim check.
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Belconnen cost?
We run personal injury claims on a no win, no fee basis. Your first conversation is free, there are no upfront fees, and if your claim is not successful you do not pay our professional fees. You get a written costs agreement before we start.
Is there a time limit to make a claim in the ACT?
Yes. The general time limit to start court proceedings for a personal injury in the ACT is three years, but many claims have much shorter deadlines for giving notice or lodging forms, especially workers compensation and motor accident claims. Get advice as early as you can.
