CDoesn’t matter if the other side has no insurance. The important thing is you don’t have insurance. Try to negotiate an out of court settlement. If this is to be fought in court, you will need a very good lawyer to represent you and get the final claim reduced as much as possible. Good luck.CHope you have insurance. This is the exact event why one has third party insurance for vehicles. Let your insurance company take care of it. Just check if you/driver/owner has not breached any of the conditions of insurance.
The injured have rightly gone to the MACT. In India, in motor accident cases, there is a doctrine of strict liability / non-fault liability, which means no matter whose fault, the injured gets compensated, and that is why rules require mandatory 3rd party insurance.
You will need to worry only if you have breached any of the terms and conditions of insurance.
Also, to answer your question, don’t fight back, if you don’t need to. Get a decent lawyer to represent you and you should be fine.
Also, the injured can demand anything. There is a formula which a court applies in motor accident cases, same will be with the injured in this case. The court takes into account nature of injury, cost for hospitalizations, post hospitalization cost, nature of disability, permanent or temporary, age, salary, dependents, mental trauma, stress etc. while coming to a figure.

CI don’t know if Delhi has Rent Control Act or it has the concept of protected tenants, where old tenant are protected cannot be asked to vacate unless certain conditions are met. It better you consult some local lawyer.
Also, at this point you don’t have to do anything. Just stay put and don’t give in to her threats. File a police complaint though saying some random person came in and threatened you.
If she wants to get you out she will have to go down the legal route and you will have to defend. You ll need a good lawyer though.
CLol… And here I am getting calls from their company to get the water purifier serviced and utilise my AMC. Btw, have been using different Eureka Forbes products prior to 2000. I have not faced any issues on their AMC.CDude, you need to file a criminal complaint and get it converted to FIR. On the civil side, check the terms and conditions while signing up, if it has arbitration clause, show it to a lawyer, he will guide you further. Anyway, meet a lawyer with all documents/email/ terms and conditions for a way forward.Advising on civil remedy can be tricky. You can try remedy under consumer protection act as well, as you are their customer and it’s a deficiency in service by blocking your account for BS reasons.
Edit: I am a lawyer practicing in Mumbai.
CIf you have an alternate accomodation now, that is a good ground to get you vacated irrespective of you paying the rent or not. Being emotionally connected to a rented accommodation is not considered by the judge. Rented apartment cannot be used as a “backup”. I personally don’t like squatters like you who have alternative accomodation but are feeling entitled to occupy someone else’s property.Having said that, it’s better to send the cheque and a covering letter by Registered Post Acknowledgement Due every month and keep receipts safe. Send pics by whatsapp as well of the letters and cheques that you send the landlord. No more cash business. Let him not give you receipt. Keep writing to him every month if the cheque gets cleared.
If he has a good lawyer, you will get vacated soon, you don’t have good defence.

CCome to Mumbai/Delhi, I ll take you to lawyers who charge 5 /10 lakhs for a meeting. It can last last from 5 mins to an hour. There are people who pay that kind of money to get advice from such expensive lawyers. I can also give the same advice, but I neither have that big a name nor do I have that kind of experience, so I (my firm) only charge 15/20k for a meeting (15 mins to 1 hrs).Better use Chatgpt next time.
CNon-competes at your level are unenforceable. Just go ahead and join man! I regularly advice clients on incorporating such clauses in the employment agreement knowing very well that they are unenforceable. It just acts as a detterent, nothing more. But if they go legal, you have no option but to go legal as well. Just don’t worry, law is in your favour.I am a lawyer.
CConvert this to a complaint and file it with the police station where you all were residing. Consider taking care of the cops and they will convert this to an FIR and maybe arrest him. You will need to arrange for some funds though to take care of cops. Also, involve a lawyer in all of this. No other way.CCompensation is to be paid to all the victims of the car accident. This is where the insurance company steps in. And that is why third party insurance is mandatory for all vehicles.But if the vehicle was driven by someone without a licence, then insurance company can deny payment and money will then be recoverable from the owner of the vehicle. All this is if they file a Motor Accident Claim and goes to court. If the driver didn’t have licence, then try to settle everything out of court.
CIt’s the vehicle owners or insurers responsibility under the MV Act to pay compensation for accident victims. The driver may be criminally liable. Owner can file a suit to recover the money from the driver.CHow old is garage owners son? Was he driving? Does he have a valid license?Your dad MAY not be responsible for the actions of others, but if the driver didn’t have a licence, then your car’s insurance may not cover this accident and your dad will have to pay to the deceased through his own pocket. Motor Accident laws are very strict and not way around not paying the deceased, even if it was their fault.
