Insurance Law

Insurance contracts come in various shapes and sizes. Think of liability insurance, travel insurance and home and buildings insurance. But do not forget disability insurance and life insurance.

Insurance law, as laid down in Book 7 of the Dutch Civil Code, has been in place since 2006. However, we still see the traditional disputes, such as regarding the obligation to notify, the prescription of a claim and whether damage or losses are the aggrieved party’s own fault.
