Law and context
The Claims Tribunal assesses the claim and evidence under the Motor Vehicles Act’s framework. A treatment bill proves an expense differently from a medical opinion on disability, future treatment or the accident’s effect on work.
Practical next step
Index emergency papers, discharge summaries, prescriptions, investigations and receipts. Keep reimbursement and insurance receipts visible to avoid an inaccurate account of out-of-pocket expense.
