Entitlement to claim

The right to pursue a specific damages claim in one’s own name.

In brief

The person whose protected right was infringed and whose loss was caused is generally entitled to claim. Special rules may apply to relatives or successors.

It must therefore be clarified who owns the claim and whether it was assigned, inherited or otherwise transferred.

General orientation only, not legal advice on an individual case.

Loss documented, claim unclear or a deadline open?

Send the key facts and documents. We will organise the claim, evidence, valuation and the next safe step.
