Agreements and liability law

Liability law

If you are made liable for any damage that occurred, the amounts claimed can be astronomical.

It is quite possible for a person to be liable in compliance with a contract they signed and then they are contractually liable. It is also possible to be held liable for a mistake which occurred outside of a contract and then we are dealing with extra-contractual liability.

Plenty of reasons therefore to come and talk to VERCRAEYE Solicitors when you are faced with a problem you are worried about or you think you should be worried about and in this case also the golden rule is that it is best to gather all necessary information beforehand: prevention is better than cure, after all. We can of course also assist you if you have any questions about these matters, of whatever nature or size.

Medical law

Medical law (i.e. health law) occupies an important place in our modern society and it can be considered to be a quickly developing field of law. To an ever increasing extent all different actors in the health sector (professionals, institutions or manufacturers of medication, etc.) are involved in civil or criminal liability legal procedures.

Up until a few years ago, health law could be reduced to the application of general legislation from civil law, criminal law and administrative law but now we can see an important development happening towards specifically designed legislation.

There is a serious increase in the number of disputes regarding medical law dealing with compensation of damage suffered as a result of erroneous medical interventions and treatments (the medical liability claims).

If you suspect you have been the victim of a medical error, we can assist you in assessing what mistakes exactly have taken place and what their consequences are in order to be able to thoroughly advise you so that your case can be solved either amicably or in court.

It is the policy of VERCRAEYE Solicitors to always obtain expert assistance from a medical consultant and that because solicitors are no doctors.

Building law

VERCRAEYE Solicitors have extensive experience with all aspects of contract law both from the point of view of the client – individual and from that of the contractor of building work.

In cases of contract law it is always important to check if and to what extent the case in question can be resolved amicably before starting any legal procedures, mainly because all kinds of procedures are pretty pricey affairs, for example an expert investigation ordered to take place byt the Courts, carried out on the condition that the loser will pay, means that the party found to be in the wrong has to pay for the investigation. If several parties are involved in such an investigation, the final bill could prove to be a costly one. It is the duty of the solicitor to be the ‘first judge’ in any case they are faced with. This can often help to reduce costs for their customer.
