Compensation consists of many different types of damages. These personal injury damages are divided into two main categories: material damages and immaterial damages, also known as pain and suffering.
Material damages include all personal injury damages that can be quantified in monetary terms. This can include medical costs. After a car accident, bicycle accident, or work accident, you are often seen in the hospital or treated by a physiotherapist. The costs associated with this are eligible for compensation.
An accident in traffic or at work can also result in disability. This can lead to loss of income, and this damage is eligible for compensation. Are you a student or pupil? Then there may also be damages due to study delays. If someone else is liable for the accident, these damages are eligible for compensation.
Other costs that are part of material damages include:
In addition to material damages, you are also entitled to pain and suffering compensation. You are always entitled to pain and suffering if you have been injured or have complaints as a result of an accident. Pain and suffering is compensation for the suffering caused to you by a third party. This can include pain, anxiety, grief, and psychological complaints.
Have you been involved in a car collision or were you hit as a cyclist by a car or other motor vehicle? Then you can claim personal injury compensation. If you were hit by a motor vehicle, the personal injury claim can be filed directly with the personal injury insurer.

Are you working in the Netherlands and have you been involved in a work accident? In the Netherlands, employers have a duty of care. This means that the employer must do everything possible to prevent you from sustaining injuries at work. This duty of care includes, among other things, that the employer:
If the employer does not fulfill their duty of care, you can hold the employer liable for your personal injury damages. This is called employer liability.
Have you sustained injuries from a work accident? You only need to prove that you had an accident during work. It is then up to the employer to prove that they have fulfilled their duty of care. Case law shows that in most cases, the employer is liable for the personal injury damages you have suffered.

Liability for animals is regulated in Article 6:179 of the Dutch Civil Code. This article holds the owner of the animal liable for the personal injury damages you have suffered as a result of the dog bite. You can therefore hold the dog owner liable.

If the other party is liable for your injury, the legal costs will be reimbursed. We recover these costs directly from the liable party. So you do not have to take into account hourly rates or unexpected costs. Our help is free of charge for you.
The length of the process depends on the severity of the injury and how quickly it becomes clear who is liable. Simple cases can be completed within a few months. In the case of complex or permanent injuries, the process can take longer. In these cases, we provide interim advances so that you do not have to wait for financial support. In any case, you will not be on your own for a moment.

This way you can be sure that you will be assisted by a specialist with legal powers, expertise and professional liability.
