We are strictly impartial: your interests come first. We always strive for the best possible outcome. A personal injury lawyer is usually free of charge for the victim.
You can suffer personal injury in all kinds of circumstances, for example, due to a traffic accident or an accident at work, medical malpractice, a dog bite, or whiplash. In many cases, you are entitled to personal injury compensation.
The law stipulates that the liable party must reimburse your "reasonable legal fees." This means that the other party's insurer will pay your legal fees (provided that the insurer has acknowledged liability).
Engaging a personal injury lawyer is therefore almost always free of charge for the victim.
By hiring a lawyer, you have nothing to lose, but a lot to gain!
You may be entitled tocompensationif your injury was caused by someone else. This could be the case, for example, in anaccident at workora traffic accident. A lawyer specializing in personal injury can help you determine liability and recover damages.
It often happens that an opposing party tries to evade liability. Our lawyers know the law and understand how liability is determined. If liability is acknowledged, you can recover your damages from the opposing party, who is then obliged to compensate you for your losses.

An initial introductory meeting is always free of charge. During this meeting, we will discuss your situation and assess our chances of success. An initial meeting can take place at our office in Amsterdam-Zuid, at your location, or via digital communication.
After this initial consultation, you will always have one lawyer as your point of contact. This lawyer will handle your case from start to finish.
Your lawyer will regularly talk to the insurer, draw up damage reports, and negotiate your claim. It is common for a loss adjuster from the insurer to visit your home to discuss the damage and get an impression of your situation.
Most personal injury cases are then settled amicably, i.e. out of court.
Are you unable to reach an amicable solution? Unlike legal advisors, personal injury consultants, or personal injury agencies, a lawyer can take your case to court (such as theAmsterdam District Courtnear Amsterdam-Zuid station) if this is the only way to reach a solution.

After an accident at work, I found myself involved in a personal injury dispute. A lawyer with whom I had had a good experience advised me to contact Joosten Advocaten in Amsterdam. I then came into contact with Alex Verhoeven and Frank Abbering. After our first conversation, we immediately had a very good rapport. I was very happy that we could just talk to each other as if we had known each other for a long time, openly and honestly saying everything to each other. Now, seven years later, we are concluding the case with a good (very good) result. It was a difficult case, but Alex and Frank gave it their all, and I am very grateful to them for all their efforts. I am also glad that they were able to give me peace of mind throughout this long battle.
Alex and Frank, THANK YOU
