Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the circumstances. If the other driver is at fault, his insurance covers the damage under mandatory auto liability insurance. If fault is disputed or the insurer does not pay within a reasonable time, an attorney can expedite the process or file a lawsuit.

Yes. In addition to material damage, you can also seek compensation for non-material damage such as pain, fear, impaired health, or reduced quality of life. The amount of compensation depends on the intensity and duration of the consequences. This type of damage is often harder to prove, so professional assistance is particularly useful.
Yes, under certain conditions. It is very important that the injury is well documented: it must be reported to the HZZO and, if necessary, to the labor inspectorate. The employer can be held liable for damages resulting from a workplace injury. Sometimes employers have an insurance policy for such cases, so it is possible to seek compensation from the insurer as well.
For material damage, you can request repair or monetary compensation equal to the amount of the damage. For non-material damage, monetary compensation is sought. The amount of compensation depends on the type and extent of the damage, and in the case of non-material damage, also on the intensity and duration of the consequences. Every case is different, so it is difficult to estimate the amount in advance without reviewing the specific situation.
