Traffic Law and traffic fines

Traffic accidents and traffic violations require the immediate intervention of legal specialists, such as A-LAW’s Managing Partner Dirk De Beule.  

Dealing with traffic cases entails the arrangement of amicable and judicial surveys, witness statements, as well as introduction of or defense in civil and criminal proceedings.  An in-depth research of the circumstances and submitted proof will be executed in order to provide accurate advice on the merits and prepare optimal defense  acting on behalf of the instructing party, it being the party at fault,  victim, authority, third party, insurer and so on.  Where possible, recourse action will be initiated in order to preserve the prejudiced party’s interest.

A-LAW’s attorneys are specialized in the assessment and evaluation of damages (property damage, personal damage, physical and immaterial damage).  A-LAW’s in-house knowledge of specific traffic regulations such as in the harbor area, CMR and ADR conventions, EU regulations on driving time and rest periods, licenses, overloading and so on are an added advantage.

Most motor vehicle insurance policies in Belgium, Europe and internationally typically provide for legal aid where the insured may freely choose his lawyer and whereby his choice should be respected by the insurance company.  A-LAW will enter into contact with your insurers and receive direct payment of its fee and costs.  The same goes for most road carrier’s liability insurance policies or cargo insurance.
