Another increasingly popular insurance in the Netherlands is the so-called legal assistance/aid insurance (Rechtsbijstandsverzekering). This insurance may provide cover (worldwide) for the costs of certain legal disputes concerning criminal cases and specific disputes following an event in which you have suffered damage. This may be the case when you were injured in a collision and the responsible party denies fault. Furthermore, it can cover legal assistance in disputes to social, contractual, and labour law issues, consumer’s conflicts, and disputes regarding housing issues.
