Have you suffered an injury as a result of a negligent/dangerous conduct of a third-party? If so, most likely question that follows is—what are the remedies that I can seek in Maldives? While the Maldives does not have a specific law governing this area of law, it is in fact still possible to recover compensation for losses incurred as a result of a personal injury caused by a negligent act.

However, any such remedies (except where there is an insurance coverage) will always be afforded through a litigation process. Personal injury litigation in the Maldives is not common compared to other forms of disputes heard before courts and this has often given rise to shortage of lawyers who can help in this area.
