If you have suffered personal injury in an accident, you are entitled to compensation if someone else is liable for the accident. Your damages can be significant, especially if you become temporarily or permanently disabled, causing you to lose income. An insurance company usually acts on behalf of the person who caused the accident. It often happens that your damage is questioned by the insurer. It may then be necessary to initiate legal proceedings to force a breakthrough. Fortunately, there is an accessible and fast method for this: a so-called partial dispute procedure.
If you accept the compensation offered to you too quickly, you are doing yourself a serious disservice. That is why the help of a lawyer is indispensable. Not only do specialized lawyers have the knowledge and experience to negotiate with insurers, they also have various options at their disposal to force insurers to provide reasonable compensation.
Initiating a partial dispute procedure
One of the instruments that lawyers have at their disposal to get insurers to move is to initiate partial dispute proceedings. This is a quick and effective procedure in court on the subject about which there is disagreement, for example the amount of (part of) the damage. This often means that stalled negotiations are revived.
With the help of a lawyer, you will be able to obtain your rights, even if an insurer refuses to cooperate in a reasonable solution. If necessary, we will initiate a partial dispute procedure. We recover the costs from the insurer.
