Kennedy Van der Laan

Insurance and Liability Group

Partner

Petra’s practice is aimed at advising and litigating for insurance companies. She litigates in cases concerning personal injury, liability and insurance. For example, she regularly represents clients in coverage dispute procedures. Thanks to her in-house experience at an insurer, she knows the sector from the inside out and knows how important hands-on advice is for daily practice.

Petra completed the postgraduate LSA/ Grotius Personal Injury specialization course and has been a member of the board of the Vereniging van Letselschade Advocaten LSA (Association of Personal Injury Lawyers LSA) since 2017.

She regularly publishes in journals like the Tijdschrift voor Vergoeding Personenschade (Magazine for Personal Injury Compensation) and the PIV-Bulletin, for example about whiplash cases and fraud in personal injury claims settlement.

She is a guest lecturer at VU University Amsterdam and the University of Groningen and teaches courses at several educational institutions.
