Lawyers and Personal injury specialists

Injury is damage to the body. A damage that causes physical or mental symptoms. People often think of wounds or broken bones. However, injury is much more than that. Invisible injuries such as whiplash or RSI complaints can also cause complaints and restrictions. Mental (or psychological) injury, on the other hand, is damage on a mental level. An example of mental injury is PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). Both physical and psychological injuries involve damage to the person. That is why personal injury is also called ‘personal injury’.

Personal injury is the damage you incur if you are injured in an accident, for example in a traffic accident, industrial accident or medical error. You may also be injured because you have been bitten by a dog or suffered damage due to a defective product.

Two terms are important in personal injury: ‘material damage’ and ‘intangible damage’.

Property damage refers to damage that can be directly expressed in monetary terms. Think of damage to property, lost income and costs you have had to incur due to the injuries you have suffered.

Intangible damages are those caused by grief, pain, missing and loss of enjoyment of life. Compensation for this is also known as damages.

Under our Civil Code, the liable party is obliged to pay the costs of your personal injury lawyer. After a traffic accident or industrial accident, the lawyer’s fees will therefore not be at your expense. You can therefore call on one of our experienced personal injury lawyers in Amsterdam free of charge.

After the intake, we contact the liable person or insurer about liability. If liability is recognised, we claim advance payments from the liable party that cover the damages you have suffered. We monitor your recovery, request medical information from your practitioners and also have your injuries assessed by our medical advisers. Our attorneys and lawyers look at what you need and what is needed to speed up your recovery.

When you have fully recovered or your situation is neither better nor worse, we speak of a (medical) final situation. At that point, we can look at a final settlement with you. In doing so, we will also look at compensation for future damages.

Because every case is different, we apply customisation to every case. Our experienced personal injury lawyers and legal experts discuss with you step by step how your case will be handled and how we can achieve the best result for you.

The question of which personal injury damages are compensated is different for each case. There is no general answer to this question. This is because the amount of your personal injury damages and the applicable compensation items depend on your personal situation. In general, the following compensation items may apply to your situation:

• Loss of income (including income from ‘black’ work), both for employees and entrepreneurs
• Damage to personal and/or business property
• Medical expenses
• Travel costs
• Damage due to limitations in housekeeping (domestic help)
• Study delay among students and pupils
• (Increased) economic vulnerability
• Cost of retrofitting
• Moving expenses
• Cost of hospitalisation
• compensation for non-economic loss
