‘Als letselschadeslachtoffer of als nabestaande komt er veel op je af. Mijn doel is om cliënten zoveel mogelijk te ontzorgen, zodat zij zich kunnen focussen op hun herstel en/of het opnieuw vormgeven van hun leven na een ingrijpende gebeurtenis. Het gaat dan in eerste instantie om het verkrijgen van een rechtvaardige schadevergoeding. Die bereik ik door middel van onderhandelingen of het voeren van een juridische procedure.

 

Daarnaast help ik cliënten met het regelen van bepaalde praktische en financiële zaken die hun leven makkelijker maken. Ik vind het belangrijk om goed te luisteren naar de behoeftes van mijn cliënten en ben empathisch, maar zeker ook realistisch.’

Does the right to log data also apply to next of kin?

 
When a loved one dies, next of kin may face questions about the medical treatment surrounding the death. If medical error is suspected, the next of kin often want to access medical information and sometimes logging data from a patient's record. Logging data shows who viewed and changed the record at what time. But what is the legal situation? Who has the right to access this logging data? In this blog, I discuss these questions using legislation and case law.

What people with (souped-up) e-bikes need to know

More and more often I see people riding around on electric bikes. It is no longer the elderly who need just that extra bit of encouragement during their ride through the woods to keep it fun. No, against all expectations the electric bicycle has become hip and it is mainly young people who whizz past me. I understand, because fast is chill, but the risks involved are not.
