Is contract & agreement applicable even to a small business?

I have just opened a business with my friend as my business partner. We have arranged agreements between us. I wonder if civil suit will be legal if in any case we have a feud at any time. Legal actions would be my only hope in case of affairs and circumstances happened along the way. I would like a legal assurance for both parties so we there won't be any hassle as we proceed.

If you start a business in Singapore, you will want the law of Singapore to “govern” any contract you sign. That means that Singapore law will be used as the framework to decide any dispute you have about your contract. The governing law is used to determine whether the contract is valid and, if so, what rights each party has under the contract, what defense they have and what legal remedies are available to the wronged party.

Your husband will still be able to walk after the ankle has been fully healed. It will soon recover from the injury with the help of the cast. And after removing the cast, he will be required to be with an equipment that will help him walk. He might also be required to go under specific weight-bearing restrictions. Even though the fracture was mended, the ligaments and tendons inside will take a longer time to heal. It can take up to two years before he can walk again without feeling the pain.

Wrong diagnose of medicine

There are two choices in this situation. First is to either file a lawsuit regarding the misdiagnosis committed by the doctor. But based on statistics, there is a small chance of winning the case. Second is asking for a compensation because since a person's life was put at stake, it is now part of his right to ask for compensation. The latter would be better because you will avoid spending more money for the lawyer and all.

One of the ways to avoid having nCov is by staying away from crowded people and by always wearing masks because it can be transported through others and since it was confirmed that nCov was already air-borne, it should be mandatory to wear masks. But if the time you spent with your friend, you did not take those precautionary measures, it is better to have yourself tested.
