Traffic law

Unfortunately, it happens that we are confronted with issues related to road traffic law.
DEWISPELAERE ATTORNEYS-AT-LAW can assist you in the event of the following.

• You have been summoned by the Police Court because of a traffic offence:
• speeding;
• driving under influence;
• failing to stop at a red traffic light;
• hit-and-run offence;
• …

What are my rights? For which period will the driving ban be applicable? What will the amount of the fine be? Is it possible to appeal to the court and will this be expedient? My insurance company refuses to pay the claim or summons you to repay all amounts paid to third parties. Is this correct and what are your rights?

• You are the victim of a traffic accident and suffered damages:
• how can I claim my damages and to whom should I address these?;
• which damages can be claimed?;
• what is the period of limitation?

In many cases, the intervention of a lawyer is free of charge: often the car insurance provides a legal expenses insurance, whereby the costs for legal counselling shall be borne by the insurance company. It is advised to be represented by a lawyer during the hearing.
