My borther passed away from a motorcycle accident 7 yrs back and the compensation claim was filed in motor accident claim court in chennai (High Court Campus). He was 22 yrs old and working in a private sector company and earning 8000 rs per month and was studying Graduation by distance education. He has also acted in a movie before and was a having a high hope achieiving bigger things in this field. Recently the judgement was passed and we were awarded a compensation of 3 lakh from the tribunal. The counsel who had appeared from our side did not handled the case judiciously and seem to be faourable to the other party (The insurance company). I wanted to go for appeal against the award. Iam not sure if i have to accept the award before going for the appeal or Should i have to go for appeal with out accepting the award? Also am looking for some advocate in chennai who is good in handling litigation related to Motor Accidents. Kindly Suggest?
