Am I Eligible for CTP Compensation After a Pedestrian Accident?
If you were injured in a pedestrian accident, you may be eligible for the Compulsory Third Party (CTP) compensation. This can include coverage for:
- Medical bills, including hospital stays or surgeries
- Rehabilitation and ongoing treatments
- Lost income
- Domestic assistance
- Pain and suffering, including psychological distress
- Nursing services
- Home and vehicle modifications
- Costs associated with retraining for your job
- Legal costs for submitting a claim
If you were at fault, you could claim for initial medical costs and lost income within the first 12 months. Severe injuries may qualify you for additional care under the icare Lifetime Care scheme. Contact us to confirm your eligibility.
How Long Will a Pedestrian Accident Claim Take?
A typical pedestrian accident claim takes about 1-3 years to complete, depending on the duration of your recovery and if the insurer accepts fault. At Wyatts Lawyers, our pedestrian accident injury lawyers will help you resolve the compensation matter quickly. We will assess your situation and give you a realistic estimation of how long the claim may take.
Can I Claim a Lump Sum Payout for My Pedestrian Accident Injury?
If your injuries are above the threshold and you weren’t at fault in the accident, there’s a good chance you can get a lump sum payment. These payments are for more serious injuries. Compensation for above threshold physical injuries is for severe cases such as fractures, nerve damage, injuries requiring surgery, brain injuries and scarring.
If you’ve been diagnosed with psychological or psychiatric conditions like depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or similar issues as a result of the accident. You may also be eligible for a lump sum payment. At Wyatts, we have expertise in securing these settlements, we achieve successful outcomes in over 99% of cases.
Do I Need Insurance to Make a Claim?
CTP insurance is mandatory for all registered vehicles in Australia, so compensation is typically paid by the at-fault driver’s CTP insurer. If the at-fault driver is uninsured or unidentified (e.g., in a hit-and-run), you may still be able to claim through the state’s motor accident fund.

Wyatts operates on a No Win, No Fee basis, meaning you won’t pay legal fees unless your case is successful. This allows you to pursue your claim without financial risk. Always check what is covered under the No Win, No Fee agreement to avoid unexpected costs.
