Personal injury

If you have suffered a personal injury in a traffic accident, you are entitled to proper compensation.  Proper compensation is full compensation for the damages suffered – nothing more but certainly nothing less.

What is the process of settling an accident involving personal injury?

It is important to keep all necessary claim documents immediately after the claim.

It is also best not to go unprepared and alone to an expert opinion, whether it is a court expert opinion, an amicable medical expert opinion (MME) or an appeal by the other party’s expert.

Indeed, in determining physical damages, the decisions of the (court) expert are very important.

After the expertise, it is basically clear what temporary personal damage, household damage and economic damage you have suffered.

The expertise will also determine the time of consolidation and determine the permanent personal damage, household damage and economic damage.

These damage items will be expressed in percentages.  On this basis, damages will be calculated.

A solid damage estimate is work for a specialised lawyer.

If you are in doubt – and especially in the case of serious physical damage – it is best to call on our expertise and experience before accepting a compensation proposal.  Do not allow yourself to be taken for a ride.

An initial consultation with us in such cases is always non-binding and for your further assistance our costs are usually covered by the legal assistance insurance, so it is free of charge for you.

So it is better to contact us (curd.vanacker@yprius.be) too early than too late.
