Crawford & Company has acquired the assets of Schaderegelingsburo R.P. van Dijk B.V. – a personal injury loss adjusting company in the Netherlands.

Founded in 1989, R.P. van Dijk B.V. offers a suite of specialist settlement services for personal injury claims. The team has extensive experience in managing complex loss events resulting in injury or death, in addition to handling medical liability claims.  R.P. van Dijk B.V. also offer actuarial support and medical advice.

The entire R.P. van Dijk B.V. team will join Crawford following the deal.

“At Crawford, our global network of adjusting professionals represents leading sector experts experienced in managing the full spectrum of loss types. The team at Schaderegelingsburo R.P. van Dijk B.V. is highly adept at handling all forms of personal injury claims and has specialist local market knowledge that ensures the efficient and effective resolution of even the most complex scenarios,” said Crawford CEO of international operations Andrew Bart. “They are an excellent addition to our rapidly expanding team of practitioners in the Netherlands led by Niels de Kock, country manager, the Netherlands.”

This is Crawford’s third acquisition in the region under Niels’ leadership – in 2019, Crawford acquired Penta Expertise & Consult N.V. in Belgium; and in 2021 the firm acquired BosBoon Expertise Group B.V.

“We are excited to be joining the Crawford team,” commented Schaderegelingsburo R.P. van Dijk B.V. director Robert van Dijk.

van Dijk added that Crawford is “at the forefront of innovation in the claims arena,” by “combining expertise and technology mapped to each unique loss scenario.”
