Collating Medical Reports & Financial Losses
Obtaining specialist medical reports from government or private hospitals, hospital bills, and evidence of lost income.
Issuing Letter of Demand (LOD)
A formal demand is served to the liable party's motor insurance company detailing full heads of general and special damages.
Negotiation or Filing Court Proceedings
If the insurer disputes liability or tenders an inadequate offer, court proceedings are commenced in the Sessions or Magistrate Court.

- Police report made by you or your family member
- Police report made by the other vehicle driver
- Police sketch plan and accident scene photographs
- Medical discharge summary and specialist medical reports
- Original medical receipts, pharmacy bills, and equipment costs

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if an insurance adjuster asks me to sign a settlement form?
Do not sign any settlement agreement or discharge voucher without consulting a lawyer first. Once signed, a discharge voucher is usually full and final, meaning you cannot claim additional medical expenses even if your condition deteriorates.
Can I claim if I was a passenger or pillion rider?
Yes. Passengers and pillion riders generally bear zero contributory negligence for the collision. A claim can be brought against the negligent driver or third-party insurer.
What are general damages vs special damages?
Special damages compensate specific out-of-pocket expenses (medical bills, travel to clinic, repair costs, past lost wages). General damages compensate for bodily pain, suffering, loss of amenities, and long-term disability.
Are there deadlines to file an accident claim in Malaysia?
Claims have statutory time limits. Your lawyer will confirm the exact deadline that applies to your situation based on the date of collision and the defendant's status.
