On May 17, 2023, in Al Ain, due to the driver's negligence, the vehicle in which Shohrab was traveling lost control and all the other passengers, including Shohrab, were in an accident. He was taken to Al Ain Tawam Hospital after the accident. Shohrab, who suffered injuries to his brain, skull, and right shoulder, approached YAB LEGAL SERVICES - CEO Salam Pappinissery to receive compensation.

Later, through his intervention, a case was registered against the driver who caused the accident and a leading insurance company in the UAE by submitting medical reports and police reports before the Insurance Authority through the Al Ain office of YAB LEGAL SERVICES. In that case, the Insurance Authority asked the insurance company to pay a compensation of 300,000 dirhams.

However, the insurance company's lawyer approached the Court of Appeal and then the Supreme Court, arguing that the documents submitted were inaccurate, that the injuries mentioned in the complaint were not actually sustained, and that he was not entitled to compensation. However, Shohrab's lawyer approached the courts with strong documents, including medical reports and insurance policies.

The court, which examined the submitted medical reports and the documents of the beneficiaries, rejected the insurance company's argument.
