Over the course of my career, I have developed extensive experience in evaluating claims, analysing medico-legal reports, and assisting parties in reaching realistic and fair settlements. My work has involved regular interaction with attorneys, experts, and claimants, which has given me a practical understanding of the legal and human aspects of Road Accident Fund disputes. This experience has provided me with a strong foundation for mediation, particularly in personal injury and compensation matters.
