Settlement or litigation

Letselschade Advocaat Amsterdam Settlement or litigation

What does settlement or litigation involve?

Most personal injury cases are resolved out of court by negotiating the amount of final compensation. Final compensation - also known as pragmatic settlement - means that both parties reach an agreement without the need to take the case to court. If it is not possible to reach a final settlement, it may be necessary to take legal action. We will never take legal action without your consent. We carefully discuss each step in the case with you so that you are always aware of what we are doing.

Why is a settlement beneficial?

Settling your case and determining the final amount of compensation offers several advantages. The process is generally faster and less stressful than litigation. In addition, you have more control over the outcome because you are an active participant in the negotiations. Making a final settlement also provides more certainty and is cost-saving, as court proceedings are often expensive and always involve risk

How do we prepare a settlement?

We always work efficiently to achieve a good end result and the highest possible compensation. We do this by, among other things, gathering relevant evidence of expenses incurred, relevant evidence, drafting a detailed claim for damages, and negotiating with the liable party's insurer. We constantly keep you informed and involve you in important decisions.

What happens if a settlement is not possible?

In most cases it is possible to obtain compensation. If this fails or if the amount of compensation is too low, we will discuss with you the possibility of starting legal proceedings. This means that we take your case to court and ask the judge to rule on your compensation.

The process of court procedure

Legal proceedings can be complex and time-consuming, but we will guide you through every step. This includes:

  • Case preparation: Collecting evidence and preparing legal documents
  • Submitting your case: Officially filing your case with the court
  • Court hearing: Representing you at the court hearing
  • Ruling: Awaiting the judge's ruling and implementing the ruling

How will I pay for this?

At Letselschade Advocaat Amsterdam you don't have to worry about unexpected costs. We make every effort to ensure that the cost of our services is reimbursed by the other party. Once liability is admitted, your damages, including attorney's fees, will be compensated.

We give you a clear picture in advance of the feasibility and are completely transparent about any costs.

How long will it take?

The duration of your case depends on several factors, such as complexity and the cooperation of the opposing party. We strive to complete your case as quickly as possible, without compromising on quality.

We continuously keep you informed of progress and discuss an estimated time frame in advance. Efficiency is our priority and we make sure you always know where you stand.

How much is my case worth?

The value depends on many factors, including the severity of your injuries and the impact on your daily life. We will thoroughly analyse your damages and give you a realistic estimate of the compensation you can expect. In most cases, the other party is obligated to compensate you for the damages caused by the accident.

We make every effort to obtain the highest possible compensation for you and keep you informed throughout the process.

When will I be able to resume my normal life?

We understand that it can be difficult to get back to your life after a traumatic event or accident. We will take the legal issues off your hands, such as liability and filing your claim, so you can focus on your recovery.

We will keep you informed every step of the process and do everything we can to get you high compensation so you can get your life back as soon as possible.

When can I expect to receive funds?

Once the opposing party admits liability, you can expect to receive money. This means that all damages you suffered as a result of the accident will be compensated. Once liability is acknowledged, we immediately begin the process of compensating you for your damages, such as medical expenses, lost income and pain and suffering.

You’d rather not be Injured. If It happens, we’re here to help.
We’re here for you. As an independent law firm, we work exclusively for victims and never with insurers. This ensures there are no conflicts of interest. You can trust us completely. Your case is in good hands with us.

“Liane was geweldig! Ze combineerde deskundigheid met een persoonlijke aanpak en hield me continu op de hoogte van de voortgang. Dankzij haar inzet en scherpe advies voelde ik me gehoord en goed vertegenwoordigd. Absoluut een aanrader!”

Ik heb twee keer in mijn leven een letselschade advocaat gehad. Eén keer voor mezelf en één keer voor mijn dochter. Wat er in mijn zaak ontbrak, was ruim aanwezig toen we voor een aanrijding bij mijn dochter, Liane kregen als advocaat. Wat mijn advocaat niet had, had Liane in ruime mate: warmte, begrip en empathie. In zaken zoals deze zijn die eigenschappen super belangrijk, maar het is geen vanzelfsprekendheid. We zullen Liane hier altijd dankbaar voor blijven.

Contacteerde Liane op de dag van mijn ongeluk en nadat we elkaar hadden gesproken heeft ze me alles duidelijk uitgelegd. Ze heeft me verteld wat ik allemaal kon verwachten en waar ik meteen actie voor moest nemen. Echt een heel fijn gesprek! Tussentijds contact opnemen voor vragen of extra uitleg was altijd mogelijk. Liane is een topper en een aanrader voor iedereen!!
