i am asking about claim case which is against me (driver), my brother (owner) and insurance company
SATYANARAYANA K (Advocate) 25 August 2010
who took summons from the court those persons should be appeared and defend the case,
In insurance case it is a civil case hence you and your brother need not go to court. Lawyer will be appear on behalf of you that is enough, while matter is coming for cross examination then you have to appear before the court.
adv. rajeev ( rajoo ) (practicing advocate) 25 August 2010
You need not to go to attend the case personally, you will have to appoint an advocate to defend you. If car is having valid insurance policy and you are having valid driving license then only insurance co., will be held liable to pay the compensation, otherwise insurnace co., will not be held responsible.
