TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-
Avanti Jure is a private company with limited liability, registered in the Trade Register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 77058135.
-
The Terms and Conditions of Avanti Jure Advocatuur (Avanti Jure) apply to all assignments to and from Avanti Jure, including all subsequent assignments. All persons, at this time or formerly, associated with Avanti Jure and their possible legal successors, can invoke these general terms and conditions. Persons associated with Avanti Jure include its employees and third parties engaged by it.
-
An assignment to Avanti Jure concerns all activities that are necessary to contribute to the result, on the understanding that an assignment is always a best-efforts obligation and can never be an obligation of result. Third parties cannot derive any rights from (the results of) an assignment, even if they can, directly or indirectly, be regarded as an engaged party. Avanti Jure accepts no liability towards third parties for work performed for any client.
-
All assignments are considered to have been given exclusively to Avanti Jure and not to a specific person associated with Avanti Jure. This also applies if it is the intention of the parties that an assignment will be performed by a specific person associated with Avanti Jure. Article 7:404 of the Dutch Civil Code, which provides an arrangement for the latter case, and Article 7:407 paragraph 2 of the Dutch Civil Code, which establishes joint and several liability for cases in which an assignment has been given to two or more persons, are expressly excluded.
-
A client is obliged to provide Avanti Jure with any and all facts and circumstances that may be important for the correct execution of the agreement, as well as all data and information requested by Avanti Jure, in a timely and complete manner. The client guarantees the correctness and completeness of all data and information provided to Avanti Jure. Avanti Jure is not liable for damage caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by the client.
-
Avanti Jure takes the upmost care when engaging third parties, including but not limited to translators, external lawyers and bailiffs. Avanti Jure is not liable for shortcomings of these third parties. If a third party limits his or her liability, Avanti Jure may accept that limitation of liability on behalf of the client.
-
If no other method of remuneration for the work has been agreed between Avanti Jure and the client, the fee will be calculated on the basis of an hourly rate of € 260,15 (including VAT), plus disbursements. Disbursements include costs of external lawyers, bailiffs and court fees.
-
Avanti Jure does not receive client's funds as referred to in the Legal Profession Regulations and is therefore exempt from the obligation to have a third-party funds Foundation.
-
By providing an assignment, a client gives permission for their personal information (and the personal information of employees of their company) to be processed. The processing of this personal information is necessary for the execution of the assignment, but also to comply with statutory obligations. Avanti Jure has the obligation on the basis of the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act to confirm the identity of the client and to report unusual transactions as meant by this act to the authorities.
-
Avanti Jure makes use of digital tools. There are risks related to these, such as interception, hacking, delay, corruption, viruses, damage to software et cetera. Avanti Jure is not liable for damage or loss because of the use of these digital tools, unless Avanti Jure has made a professional error in this context.
-
The liability of Avanti Jure and all persons associated with Avanti Jure is, under any circumstance, limited to the amount which is paid out by the insurer of Avanti Jure, plus the amount of the excess which is at the expense of Avanti Jure. Avanti Jure is insured via Markel Insurance SE. A notice of liability has to be communicated to Avanti Jure as soon as possible, in writing, at the very least within 2 months after one has become aware of (any) damage. Avanti Jure accepts no liability for any indirect damage and/or consequential damage, such as damage to business.
-
All assignment to and from Avanti Jure are governed exclusively by Dutch law. Disputes that flow from or are related to such assignments will be exclusively settled by the competent court of law in the district Zeeland-West-Brabant without prejudice to the right of appeal including cassation.
