Compensation of 150000 Dirhams to Shihab, a native of Pattambi, Palakkad, who was injured in a car accident in Al Ain.

On January 05, 2024, on Al Ain Nahil Road, an Emirati national carelessly turned his vehicle from the right side to the left, hitting Shihab's vehicle, which was traveling on the left side, and the impact of the impact caused an accident. The court was convinced that the accident had occurred due to the negligence of the Emirati national, and the Traffic Criminal Court then fined him 30,000 dirhams and released him.

Subsequently, Shihab, who suffered head, spine, and chest injuries in the accident, approached YAB LEGAL SERVICES - CEO Salam Pappinissery to seek compensation. Later, through his intervention, a case was registered against the leading insurance company in the UAE and the driver of the vehicle by submitting medical reports and police reports before the Insurance Authority.

Shihab's lawyer at Yab Legal Services argued before the Authority that the insurance company that insured the vehicle should pay compensation as Shihab had sustained injuries all over his body and that the cause of his serious injuries was the negligence of the driver of the opposing vehicle. After hearing the arguments, the Authority asked the insurance company to pay compensation of 150,000 (one hundred and fifty thousand) dirhams. However, according to the documents submitted, Shihab did not suffer any further injuries and that only a small amount should be paid to Shihab. Although the opposing party approached the civil court, claiming that Shihab should be paid only a small amount, it could not withstand the reply memorandum of Yab Legal Services lawyer, who came with strong documents, including a medical report issued by the UAE Medico-Legal Department and documents of medical expenses. The Court of Appeal confirmed that the amount awarded by the Insurance Authority should be paid.
