Motor Accident Claims
Acting for victims and families claiming compensation before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal.
A road accident can leave a family without its earning member or facing the long term cost of a serious injury. We act for victims and their families claiming compensation and, where instructed, for insurers and owners defending a claim.
For claimants our work covers claims before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal for death, permanent and partial disability, and grievous and simple injury, including loss of income, medical expenses, future treatment, and loss of dependency, along with hit and run claims and claims under the no fault and structured formula provisions. For insurers and owners we defend claims where liability or the extent of injury is in question and raise the defences the law allows, including the terms of the policy and the fault of the claimant.
We prepare the claim with the medical evidence, the proof of age and income, and the records the tribunal looks for, so that nothing that should be awarded is left out and nothing that is not due is allowed. Appeals against the award, whether for enhancement or reduction, go to the High Court of Andhra Pradesh at Amaravati and, on questions of law, to the Supreme Court of India.
