Compensation and insurance law

Compensation – We fight for your right to full compensation

Once the damage has occurred, it is crucial to have a legal partner who can correctly calculate your loss and place legal responsibility.

Tort law is a complex field where the burden of proof, causality and calculation methods are crucial to the outcome of the case. Regardless of whether it is a financial loss in a business relationship or a personal injury, Schwartz and Partners lawyers ready to ensure that you are not left behind by insurance companies or counterparties.

Specialized advice on all types of compensation

We have extensive experience in handling cases where the goal is to restore your or your company's financial situation. We confidently navigate both insurance terms and liability law to optimize your claim.

We advise on, among other things:

Professional compensation

Liability in connection with defective deliveries, professional advisor liability and breach of contract.

Personal injury

Compensation following traffic accidents, work injuries or patient injuries, including calculation of lost earnings and pain and suffering.

Board and management responsibilities

Advice and defense in cases concerning management liability.

Product liability

Dealing with damages caused by defective products or services.

Insurance disputes

We assist when the insurance company denies coverage or offers inadequate compensation.

Your guarantee of a fair process

Many people leave the calculation of a compensation claim to the other party's insurance company. This is rarely an advantage. As your lawyers, we ensure that all relevant items are included and that the legal arguments are presented with the necessary weight – both in negotiations and in court.

We combine a deep insight into case law with a solution-oriented approach, so you can move forward with peace of mind, knowing that your financial backlog is covered in the best possible way.

Especially about excavation damage and power lines

Damage to buried cables and pipelines can lead to huge compensation claims and operational disruptions. We specialize in the complex rules regarding excavation damage, including the distribution of liability under the LER Act (the Danish Cable Owners Register).

Whether you are a contractor who has been hit with a compensation claim, or a line owner who has had their network damaged, we advise on:

The question of guilt: Assessment of whether negligence has been shown and whether the LER information was correct.
Measurement of losses: Calculation of actual repair costs versus indirect losses.
Evidence protection: Handling of photo documentation and technical reports from the accident site.
