What I will do for you

After a car accident, insurers typically offer undervalued compensation. An experienced lawyer can help maximize it. I know the calculation methodology and how to negotiate a good settlement or succeed in court.

  • Compensation for pain and suffering and permanently reduced quality of life
  • Compensation for property damage (car, belongings)
  • Lost earnings and loss of income
  • Representation against the other party's insurer
  • Litigation if the insurer refuses to pay
  • Compensation for surviving relatives in the event of death

How insurers cut compensation, and how to fight back

The insurer must complete its investigation within 3 months of the claim being reported, otherwise it must explain the delay in writing and provide a reasonable advance on request; payment is due within 15 days after the investigation ends (Section 2798 of the Civil Code). In practice, though, their first offer often covers only part of the actual harm. For a car accident, pain and suffering and permanently reduced quality of life are assessed under Section 2958 of the Civil Code and the Supreme Court Methodology (Government Regulation No. 276/2015 Coll. applies only to workplace injuries and occupational diseases). The methodology uses a point system where each point has a set value. The problem is that insurers' own expert opinions tend to award fewer points. A lawyer can have an independent expert opinion prepared and achieve higher compensation.
