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

Zeer tevreden over Liane! Vanaf beging af aan is er hele fijne communicatie geweest. Liane heeft mij echt meegenomen in alle stappen die doorlopen moesten worden en nam alle tijd om dingen duidelijk uit te leggen. Ik zou Liane zeker adviseren, en mocht het in de toekomst nodig zijn dan zou ik Liane weer contacten!

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.

Ik heb twee keer in mijn leven een letselschade advocaat gehad. Eén keer voor mezelf en één keer voor mijn dochter. Wat er in mijn zaak ontbrak, was ruim aanwezig toen we voor een aanrijding bij mijn dochter, Liane kregen als advocaat. Wat mijn advocaat niet had, had Liane in ruime mate: warmte, begrip en empathie. In zaken zoals deze zijn die eigenschappen super belangrijk, maar het is geen vanzelfsprekendheid. We zullen Liane hier altijd dankbaar voor blijven.
