Common questions
Which court will hear my claim if the accident happened in Cheras?
A road accident injury claim from Cheras is generally filed at the Kuala Lumpur Courts Complex, on Jalan Tuanku Abdul Halim, formerly Jalan Duta.[1] Most injury claims go to the Sessions Court, which has unlimited jurisdiction for motor-vehicle-accident claims, so the size of a serious Cheras injury does not push it to a different court on its own.
My accident happened in slow-moving traffic on the Cheras-Kajang stretch. Does a jam change who is at fault?
Not by itself. A driver is still expected to leave enough room to stop safely even in a queue, so a rear-end collision in slow traffic usually still points to the following driver. The exact distance and speed involved in your Cheras accident are what a lawyer would want to establish first.
Do I need to see a doctor straight away for a Cheras claim to work?
A medical record made close to the date of the accident matters far more than which hospital or clinic you attend. If you were treated away from Cheras or delayed seeing anyone, get a report describing your injury and its likely cause as soon as you can.
What happens after I WhatsApp you about my Cheras accident?
We ask a few plain questions about the general accident facts and the insurer or police report status. If a suitable independent licensed advocate and solicitor is available and you consent, you can request contact about representation for your Cheras claim. The lawyer must separately confirm whether they can accept your case, and [what happens after you message us](/what-happens-after-you-message/) sets out that process in full.
