Personal injury
Every day, people suffer physical and/or mental injuries, often as a result of accidents in traffic or at work, but also due to the actions of (domestic) animals. If someone else is liable for the injuries you have sustained, you are generally entitled to compensation for damages. Personal injury law intersects with other legal areas such as employment law (for victims who are employed), business law (for entrepreneurs who become victims of accidents resulting in a decrease in their revenue), and administrative law (for disputes with the government regarding social security benefits or social care provisions, for example).
Furthermore, there can also be connections to criminal law (e.g., when a crime has been committed or if the Public Prosecutor’s Office decides not to prosecute). As a full-service law firm, we have expertise in all these legal areas. If your case spans multiple legal domains, we bring together knowledge from various legal disciplines.
