This query is : Resolved
One of my friends while driving a car hit a person walking on the road. That person was admitted in the hospital and discharged (after 3 days)after giving the necessary treatment. The treatment was given under medico legal case. All the medical expenses are borne by my friend. The discharge summary and other receipts (all originals) are taken by the family members of the injured person. My friend is apprehending that there is a possibility of filing a case claiming compensation in future. Kindly suggest what is to be done by my friend so that he can not face any legal problems in future?

If the vehicle of your friend was insured on the day of the accident, no liability of the claim shall stand against him.
