The best way to get in touch with the insurance company<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

In general, you can contact the opposing insurance company by telephone or e-mail, although a personal telephone call is recommended for the first contact. Every insurance company has a service hotline where you can describe your concerns. As a rule, you will be forwarded to the relevant claims department of the insurance company.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
Important<\/div>

Make a note of the name of the person in charge and their contact details during the conversation so that you can get in touch with your personal contact at the opposing insurance company directly if you have any further questions!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

These deadlines are granted to the opposing insurance company<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The opposing liability insurer is granted a certain period of time within which it must confirm its obligation to indemnify. This so-called review period begins when a special letter of claim is sent to the liability insurer. In this letter, you as the injured party must provide information about the circumstances of the accident. It is important to state the place and time of the accident and to describe the details of how the accident actually happened.<\/span><\/p>\n

Errors when completing the questionnaire<\/a> can, however, result in claims being reduced by the opposing insurance company. It is therefore best to seek professional advice.<\/p>\n

How long does it take for the opposing insurance company to get in touch?<\/h2>\n

The time it takes for the other party's insurance company to contact you depends on various factors. For example, the internal processing of the accident, queries and clarifications with the person responsible for the accident and other things over which you have little influence. According to case law (see Saarbr\u00fccken Higher Regional Court - decision of 10 November 2017 - 4 W 16\/17), a period of four to six weeks has been defined as a reasonable period for checking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The insurance company does not get in touch after the claim is reported? You can therefore expect a waiting period of at least four weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

FAQ on the opposing insurance company<\/h2>\n

The other party in the accident does not report the damage - can I take action myself?<\/h3>

It happens frequently: The person responsible for the accident does not report the damage and hopes to avoid a settlement.

Or you can instruct us to do so, saving you time and stress.<\/p>learn more<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>
