If you've been hit from behind in a car accident, Kearney Law can help you claim compensation with no upfront costs.
A rear-end collision claim is a type of personal injury claim made when your vehicle is hit from behind by another driver. These accidents often happen because the driver behind wasn’t paying attention, was speeding, or didn’t leave enough space. If the crash wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation for your injuries and related costs.
Even if your injuries seem minor at first, symptoms can appear days later. It’s important to seek medical advice and legal support early.
Contact us through our enquiry form, phone, or email. We’ll review your situation, answer your questions, and explain what to expect next. There’s no upfront fee to begin your claim.
Your case will be carefully reviewed by our legal team. We assess the strength of your claim, advise on the documentation needed, and guide you through key steps such as attending an independent medical examination and preparing the information required for the Injuries Resolution Board (IRB).
Once you decide to move forward, we take care of everything. This includes gathering evidence, contacting the other party or their insurer, submitting your claim to the IRB, managing settlement discussions, and handling any court proceedings if needed.
You won’t need to pay anything to begin your claim. We’ll take care of everything, and you only move forward if you're happy with our advice.
