Imagine: you've enjoyed working at a medium-sized company for years. You feel valued, get good reviews and have a permanent contract. Yet you are suddenly called to the office on a Friday afternoon. Your manager says that you “no longer fit in the team” and that you were fired immediately. No warning and no previous conversation. You'll be outside before you know it. In this situation, a dispute immediately occurs. You feel powerless and need urgent legal help, but where do you start?
An employment dispute can have a significant impact. Your income is at stake, you feel insecure and emotions are often running high. That is why it is important that you get the right legal help quickly. Legal expenses insurance helps you with that. You are not alone and you know that someone who understands your interests is watching.
Legal expenses insurance gives you access to professional legal assistance. You can easily report your dispute and a lawyer will assess your situation. It looks at what your rights are, which steps are wise and whether immediate action is needed. In the event of employment disputes, for example, the lawyer helps with:
• Checking your resignation letter;
• Assessing whether the dismissal is legally valid;
• Having conversations with your employer;
• Starting a procedure if necessary.
So you don't have to figure out all the rules yourself. You'll get the legal help you need to stand stronger.
When you report a dispute, you get a permanent contact person. He guides you throughout the entire process. First, you discuss exactly what happened together. You will then receive clear advice about the steps you can take. Is it possible to consult with your employer? Then the lawyer will help you with that. Is the situation so deadlocked that legal proceedings are following? Even then, legal assistance is there for you. You get the right legal help without having to incur high costs yourself.
Legal assistance is not only useful in the event of dismissal. You can also use it in other situations, such as:
• A dispute with your host;
• Problems with a purchase or repair;
• A conflict after a traffic accident;
• An argument with a contractor or supplier.
In all these cases, you'll get professional legal help so you know where you stand and what options you have.
Legal expenses insurance provides peace of mind. You know you can always rely on expert legal assistance and reliable legal assistance, right when you need it. In addition, the costs of legal assistance, for example from a lawyer, can quickly become very high. That's not what you're waiting for in a difficult situation, of course.
