DR WINGS BIKE FORCE Throughout Australia

          

         

Trips.

(This page is dedicated to all the Hospitals and supporters we have met along the way to today. Thank You all.)

Since 2014 when we took the M.A.R.I Initiative outside of St Vincents and made other hospitals aware of our service a lot has changed.

We have developed a strategy that delivers a FREE service to all that ask for our help.

With the addition of the Bush Fires and the COVID-19 we had to tweak our service even further than before.

As we lost the ability to visit patients in hospital to discuss how we maybe able to help them or their family.

Back late last year 2021 we contacted the NSW Health Ministers office to talk with Mr Hazard. I explained what we did as a registered non for profit to assist Hospitals and Patients to keep the cost down as we are a FREE service.

Open to all Riders and now Car drivers in a similar situation needing assistance or guidance after being involved in an accident.

Mr Hazard asked asked Glenn Sisson, Manager of the Institute of Trauma and Injury Management (ITIM) to assist. Glenn was a huge help by contacting all the Hospitals in NSW and informing the Social Work staff of our service and e-mailing them a list of frequently asked questions on how we may assist a patient when asked to.



This year on the 1st August 20222 we will be doing a loop of Northern New South Wales and the majority of Queensland.

This trip should take around 31days in total.

The first Hospital we will be contacting is Moree.

We have had requests for assistance in the Moree area since 2015.

So we will be renewing our support with them at that time.

Late this year we hope to conduct talks with Hospitals south of the Central Coast New South Wales and Into Victoria too.

MARI and the DR Wings Bike Force strive to give you the best patient support possible with the best coverage to.

Motor Accident Injuries.

With Law Partners, you’l have Australia’s largest specialist personal injury firm working hard to get you more compensation for your motor accident injury.

 

How can I claim motor vehicle accident compensation?

Compensation is available to drivers, passengers and pedestrians who’ve been injured in accidents involving:

All NSW vehicles are required to have CTP policies, so if you have been injured in an accident you can claim under the at-fault vehicle’s policy.  It’s possible to lodge your own compensation claim directly through SIRA, however your claim may be denied by the insurer, and the amount of compensation you receive will depend on the quality of your supporting evidence. Also, depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be able to lodge additional claims such as workers compensation or a TPD lump sum claim. So it makes sense to speak to a solicitor before your lodge your claim.

What can I claim for?

Depending on your injuries, you may be able to claim compensation for lost income, medical expenses, travel expenses, pain and suffering and future losses.

How do I make sure I get my full entitlements?

There’s one factor that will ultimately determine how much compensation you receive – and that’s how well your lawyer gets to know you personally. At first glance, the consequences of your injuries might seem obvious. But our lawyers will take the time to find out more about you, your family and what your life was like before your accident, to really understand the impact it’s had on your life and successfully claim all the compensation you’re entitled to.

Why trust my claim with Law Partners?

Caring for our clients drives everything we do – that’s why thousands of Australians every year choose Law Partners. Having a Law Partners solicitor help you with your CTP claim can dramatically increase the amount of compensation you receive, and there are many situations where you can get your solicitor’s fees paid by the insurer, so there’s no cost to you. We win over 99% of our cases and we will fund your case for you, giving you a no-risk way to pursue your claim.

All you need do is call Ken on 0449 186 761. He will get a Specialist to suit your specific needs to call you back asap.
