Successful recourse
When should you pursue recourse through Meijers?
Recourse applies to a wide range of situations: minor or major damages, past incidents, or losses you anticipate. For example:
Damage to your property
Your contractor starts a fire during maintenance work. Your business insurance may cover part of the loss, but your deductible and any uninsured portions come out of your own pocket. Our liability and recourse specialists work to recover those full costs from the party responsible.
Personal injury to your employees
A car strikes your employee, leaving them injured. That is devastating for your employee, but it also creates real costs for you as the employer: net salary losses and reintegration expenses, for instance. We take care of the salary recourse process on your behalf.
What are the benefits?
You get fast results through direct, no-nonsense communication. You also gain access to our network of claims experts, investigators, and lawyers. And through Meijers Vitaal's specialists, you benefit from deep expertise in prevention, absenteeism, and disability.
What does recourse do for you?
A successful recourse claim can save you a significant amount of money. We stay involved from start to finish, take the entire process off your hands, protect your commercial interests, and do not consider the job done until you have been fully compensated. When you pursue recourse through Meijers, you choose a partner with a success rate of over 90%. That is something we are genuinely proud of.
What are the costs?
You choose the arrangement that works for you. On a no win, no fee basis, you only pay if the claim succeeds. Alternatively, we invoice based on hours worked after the process is complete. Either way, we also pursue recovery of our own costs from the liable party, because only then are you fully compensated.
