What caused your personal injury?
What is Personal Injury?
Personal injury is often the result of a traffic accident or a workplace incident. But a slip on a wet shop floor or a fall caused by poor road conditions can also lead to injury.
M Advocatuur provides legal assistance in a wide range of personal injury cases, including:
- traffic accidents
- workplace accidents
- medical errors
- dog bites or other animal-related injuries
- sports injuries
- occupational illnesses
- and falls caused by unsafe pavement or road surfaces.
Personal injury includes both material damages and non-material damages, also known as compensation for pain and suffering.
To receive compensation for personal injury, several steps must be taken.
First, the other party must be held liable. Once liability is acknowledged, you can identify the damages and submit your claim to the responsible party or their insurer.
Although this may sound straightforward, it is often complex and time-consuming in practice.
Disputes about liability are common, victims often overlook certain types of damage, and negotiations with insurers can be difficult. That’s why, if you’ve suffered personal injury, it’s important not to take on a professional insurer alone. Instead, seek advice from a specialised personal injury lawyer as early as possible in the process.
How can a personal injury lawyer support you?
A personal injury lawyer can take the entire process off your hands, from the initial discussions about liability to gathering evidence and negotiating your compensation. And if a settlement isn’t possible, they can represent you in court and guide you through the legal proceedings.
Why choose an LSA-certified personal injury lawyer?
The title “personal injury specialist” is not protected by law. This means anyone can use it, regardless of their qualifications.
Many personal injury agencies are not part of any recognised quality network. On top of that, these agencies are not authorised to represent clients in court. That raises the question: is your case really in safe hands with such an office?
Lawyers who are members of the Dutch Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (LSA) are true specialists in handling personal injury cases. They must meet the highest standards of experience and quality. So when you work with an LSA-certified lawyer, you can be confident your case is being handled properly.
The lawyers at M Advocatuur are specialised in personal injury law and have years of experience with a wide range of injury cases. Raoul van der Meulen is also a member of the LSA.
