General damages section 1 (k)

High-speed car and motor vehicle accidents often result in fractures to the leg and knee and a result of blunt force impact with an object such as the dashboard. The amount of general damages ie: non-economic loss depends on the nature of the injury and how it impacts a claimants lifestyle.

If you require a complete calculation including other entitlements such as lost earnings please can call us on 1800 106 107.

How much compensation for a broken Knee in a car accident?

Section 1 (k) Severity excl lost earnings
Broken knee/patella Minor $8,000 to $16,000
Moderate $15,000 to $58,000
Severe $42,000 to $98,000

Amounts shown include estimations for non-economic loss and not to be taken as a substitute for legal advice. In addition to non-economic loss, you may be entitled to compensation for lost earnings. These payments often exceed six-figures, so your final settlement could be considerably more.

How will my compensation be calculated?

Each state in Australia has its own rules and regulations however a legal representative will consider:

  • The severity of your broken leg
  • your legal fees
  • past and future lost earnings
  • contributory negligence
  • success fees (which are mandatory in some states)
  • and the state your car accident took place

All of the things mentioned above are variables which will affect your final compensation amount.
