When to use it

Use when a person injured in a Queensland motor vehicle accident must give notice to a CTP insurer or the Nominal Defendant, or must answer a notice under section 39. Do not use it for a New South Wales or Victorian claim.

Used for these tasks

Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.

How AI may be used

The tool may assemble the checklist and a reply to a noncompliance notice from the insurer's letter and the file, and the lawyer settles the notice and writes nothing in the witnessed part of the form.

AI may

Calculate the earlier of the dates in section 37(2) from the accident date and the date a lawyer was first consulted
List the documents section 37 and the regulation require, against what is already on the file
Draft a reply that answers each noncompliance the insurer has identified, with a gap where a fact is missing

AI must not

Must not complete, sign or witness the Notice of Accident Claim Form. Both the portal printout and the PDF are signed before an eligible witness
Must not decide that a delay is reasonably excused, or that the Nominal Defendant claim is still open
Must not send the claim file to a public tool

The lawyer checks

Section 37(2) and (3) are applied to this accident: unidentified vehicle, ordinary vehicle, or a lawyer already consulted
A law practice certificate accompanies the notice if a law practice is retained (s 37(1)(d))
The insurer's section 39 notice is diarised, including the period of at least one month it allows
Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm's approved tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply. A breach may be notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
