When, due to an accident, you can no longer perform the tasks around the house as before, you are entitled to domestic help. Household tasks such as washing dishes, shopping, taking care of children, cooking and cleaning take a lot of effort. Especially if there are several complaints, someone close to you or professional help will have to be called in. When this is necessary, you are entitled to compensation.
Free consultationThe Personal Injury Council has issued a guideline for domestic help. It must be informal care, or care by family, friends, acquaintances, etc. This must involve the tasks you performed before the accident; thus, they may not take over tasks that were performed by others before the accident. The first three months are calculated according to standard amounts established by the Personal Injury Council. This includes whether you are single or have children, and whether the impairment is mild or severe. After these three months, an hourly rate of €11.50 applies, barring exceptions. The insurer will ask what your share was before the accident; this percentage is used in the calculation for compensation. Finally, there is a duty to limit damages, which means that you have to keep the damage as limited as possible.
Domestic help is one of the damages to which you are entitled. In an accident, you are entitled to different compensation. It is important to hire a lawyer to see what you are entitled to. The lawyers at Munten Personal Injury have years of experience and can give an indication of what you are entitled to.
As an accident victim, you often incur immediate expenses and worry about finances. Fortunately, Dutch law regulates free assistance by specialized personal injury lawyers.
No cure no pay, your lawyer settles costs directly with the other party as out-of-court costs (bgk). This relieves you of worry and financial burden. Call us for more information about our services.
Get in touchYou are entitled to compensation for damages resulting from a traffic accident. We will help you recover these damages. Contact us today. We will discuss what we believe is the best strategy to get fair compensation as quickly as possible. This is as follows.
An understanding of the facts is necessary to hold the right party liable.
With a legally sound story, we hold the person(s) responsible liable for your damages.
Then we can work with you to estimate the damages and make sure you get fair compensation.
At an initial consultation, we already know how much compensation we can estimate, but how much compensation is ultimately necessary to make up for the damage, that only shows itself after a while.
All too often, victims underestimate the severity of the injury and the long-term consequences. We guard against victims being fobbed off with compensation that feels good in the short term, but hurts in the long term!
Our goal is to make the liable party, usually an insurer, bear as much of the personal injury victim’s burden as possible. This requires swift action, which is often a challenge due to the natural inertia of the parties involved, such as insurers. However, thanks to our years of experience and good contacts, our personal injury lawyers know how to reach the right people at the right place, which usually allows us to achieve the desired speed.
An important part of this is that we quickly figure out with you what matters for your situation. Compensation is not an outcome of a calculation. It requires good cooperation between victim and personal injury lawyer to figure out what is needed at this time and later. The injury has a big impact on this, but so do the victim’s social and financial circumstances, of course. Fortunately, personal injury law is still real people’s work and we are able to put our expertise to good use. A personal injury case is quite intense if you want to do it right, it really is a collaboration, because even though our personal injury lawyers are specialized in this field: we do not know what is going on with you.
