Tenant Injury Claim Dispute

Summary

In the Cayman Islands, a tenant claiming injury from an incident must provide evidence such as medical reports, photos, and witness statements. A medical report should detail the injury, examination date, and treatment. Witnesses should offer written statements with incident details. If the medical report doesnt confirm an injury, the tenants case is weakened, but other evidence may still be considered. Its advisable for the accused party to gather evidence and consult a local legal professional for guidance.
