In event of injury in motor accident - engage a lawyer

My brother was hit by a taxi while riding his scooter on the road last year.

Then, I thought matter is simple and called the taxi insurer (Not NTUC INCOME)to enquire if they wish to do direct settlement.

As I do not get a reply, I decided to engage a lawyer to handle the claim and good thing I did.

In event of injury case, it is best to engage a lawyer.

It is advisable to look for lawyer who specialise in such accident injury claim.

I was refered to 3 lawyer firms by Ntuc Income and I engaged one of them and so far the case is successful against taxi driver, though the taxi driver reported otherwise.

The case is now pending settlement against taxi insurer.
