Schade Experts Nederland is a collective of independent counter-experts (contra-experts) operating throughout the Netherlands. Their primary mission is to represent and assist insured parties—both individuals and businesses—after they have suffered damage covered by an insurance policy. They act as the policyholder's advocate, conducting their own independent assessment of the damage to ensure a fair and maximal settlement from the insurance company, counterbalancing the assessment done by the insurer's own expert. The firm typically operates on a "no cure, no pay" basis, with their fees often being covered by the insurance policy itself as part of the claims process.
