Sinds mei 2012 behartigde mw de Foe mijn letselschade na mijn ongeluk waarbij de tegenpartij is doorgereden. Nu juli 2020 wordt mijn zaak afgerond met het waarborgfonds. Al die jaren ben ik zeer content geweest met de aanpak van mw de Foe. Ik zou hierbij mw de Foe aan willen bevelen voor al uw letselschade. Ik heb een uiterst prettige ervaring de afgelopen jaren met mw de Foe gehad.Met vriendelijke groetMarcel Boonstra

Nadat ik door een taxi werd geschept (fiets total loss, kleding beschadigd en schouder ontzet), begon een akelige strijd om het verhalen van de schade: de taxicentrale wilde het afkopen met een paar tientjes terwijl de verzekeringsmaatschappij van álles bonnetjes wilde zien (en bovendien niets kon doen zonder schuldbekentenis van de taxicentrale).Een advocaat leek me een grote stap, maar een oriënterend gesprek met mevrouw Liane Foe maakte aan die twijfel een eind.Meteen nadat ik haar mijn gegevens had gestuurd, werd er orde op zaken gesteld. Zij heeft toegang tot de gegevens van de RDW, en had daarmee direct contact met de verzekeraar zelf (en niet met de tussenpersoon die ik sprak). Vervolgens bekende de taxicentrale schuld en leverde hun deel van het schadeformulier in.Omdat zij de weg kent en de nodige ervaring heeft, was niet meer het starre schadeformulier leidend, maar kon er in één keer doorgepakt worden.En tot mijn verbazing ging het meteen over smartengeld; iets wat je zelf niet op een schadeformulier kunt invullen.Bovendien werden de advocaatkosten geheel door de verzekeringsmaatschappij vergoed, dus ik ben érg blij dat ik via de LSA (Vereniging van Letselschade Advocaten) bij mevrouw Liane Foe terechtkwam.

"Liane Foe: uitstekende juridische begeleiding, goede adviezen en persoonlijke benadering"Na mijn ernstig ongeval waarbij ik als voetganger door een motorrijder ben aangereden op een zebrapad, raadde mijn jongste zus mij dringend aan een letselschade advocaat in de arm te nemen. Omdat ik in een revalidatiecentrum verbleef en door immobiliteit tot weinig in staat was, had zij die op grond van reviews al snel voor mij gevonden: Liane Foe. Ik ben in de keuze van mijn zus zeker niet teleurgesteld. Vanaf de eerste gesprekken met haar gaf Liane mij het gevoel dat ik bij haar in goed handen was vanwege haar uitstekende juridische begeleiding waarbij ze haar kennis ter zake voor mij als leek op begrijpelijke en heldere wijze kon verwoorden, en haar ervaring met gevallen waarin voetgangers door een verkeersongeval worden getroffen. Zij heeft mij daarnaast in haar contact met de verzekeringsmaatschappij van de wederpartij met goede adviezen bijgestaan. En wat ik belangrijk vind in het contact met haar, is niet alleen de zakelijke kant hiervan, maar ook haar persoonlijke en inlevende benadering. Elk telefoongesprek met haar opende zij met de vraag naar mijn gezondheid en naar de vordering van mijn herstel. In de bijna afgelopen anderhalf jaar heeft zij mij de zekerheid gegeven dat mijn zaak tot mijn tevredenheid afgerond zou worden. Ieder die door een verkeersongeval wordt getroffen, heeft de vrijheid op grond van eigen voorkeur een letselschade advocaat te kiezen. Maar het valt zeker aan te raden in de zoektocht naar zo'n advocaat contact op te nemen met Liane Foe.

Ik wil Letselschade Advocaat Amsterdam bedanken voor hun geweldige hulp en ondersteuning. Vanaf het eerste gesprek voelde ik me serieus genomen en begrepen. Het team was deskundig, professioneel en altijd bereid om mijn vragen te beantwoorden. Ze hebben alles uit handen genomen, zodat ik me volledig kon richten op mijn herstel. De schadevergoeding die ze voor mij hebben geregeld, was boven verwachting. Ik kan dit kantoor aan iedereen aanraden die letselschade heeft opgelopen!
