Background

Being involved in litigation is associated with poor outcomes, higher levels of pain, disability, catastrophising, fear-avoidance and other psychological factors. Poor access to treatments can contribute to chronicity of symptoms and poor outcomes, especially in patients involved in litigation with a longer time since the accident.

Purpose

To examine the relationship between time since the accident, access to treatments and current psychological variables.
