Professional liability

Professional liability

Professionals such as lawyers, accountants, notaries, doctors and architects have a huge responsibility. A small mistake can have far-reaching consequences and lead to liability claims. Whether it is an alleged professional error, negligence or breach of duty of care, it is essential to seek legal advice from an experienced lawyer specializing in professional liability.

At Delissen Martens, we assist professionals with both strategic advice and decisive legal assistance. We not only help to prevent and limit liability risks, but also defend your interests in and out of court.

Professional liability of employers: who is responsible?

Not only individual professionals, but also employers can be held liable for professional errors committed by their employees. This may be the case, for example, if:

  • An employee causes damage in the course of his or her work
  • The employer has provided inadequate supervision or training
  • A breach of statutory duties of care

Our professional liability specialists assess whether and to what extent an employer can be held liable and offer both preventative advice and legal assistance in the event of legal proceedings.

Professional liability litigation: your defense in good hands

When a liability claim cannot be resolved amicably, litigation is sometimes unavoidable. Our lawyers have extensive experience in professional liability litigation and are committed to vigorously defending your interests.

We act in disputes between professionals and their clients, insurers or regulators. We also litigate on behalf of employers held liable for the actions of their employees.

Checklist for filing financial statements: who? what? how? when?

Checklist for filing financial statements: who? what? how? when?

Much has been written and said about the filing privilege. The Chamber of Commerce, for example, provides information about it through its website. It is not really possible to report anything new about it. However, we thought it would be useful, especially now that we are approaching the end of the year, to once again put things in compact order: who has an obligation to file, what exactly is it and what does it entail, and when must it be fulfilled. Here are the findings:

Turbo liquidation and liability director

Turbo liquidation and liability director

Turbo liquidation: how does it work again? What about the creditors? Do they really have nothing to say against it and are thus powerless? Not quite, according to a recent ruling by the North Holland District Court. Under circumstances, a director is personally liable after a turbo liquidation.
