We are trying to mobilise as many teachers as possible, as for many of them it may soon be too late to apply. Exactly one year from now, it will be three years since the first covid wave. At that time, the victims' right to compensation will be time-barred. It may seem like a long time, but in our experience, the whole compensation process, from arranging the documents, to filing the claim, to processing it, can take almost a year. To avoid complications and unnecessary lawsuits, victims need to get started now.
Why apply through Law Firm Holubová advokáti
Teachers, and anyone else in the category of school or nursery staff, such as tutors, cleaners, canteen cooks, can apply for compensation themselves if they believe they have contracted covid-19 in connection with their work. However, applying through our law firm has several advantages:
- Compensation is paid by the employer's insurance company. However, the claim must be filed with the employer, which some employees may have an internal problem with. Filing through us simplifies the process.
- We are already experienced in preparing the compensation claim and representing you throughout the process. Recently, we were successful in obtaining compensation for a client worth several million crowns in connection with the death of a teacher on covid-19.
- The paperwork and subsequent communication with doctors, health authorities and the employer is both administratively and time consuming, and raises all sorts of legal issues that need to be dealt with promptly.
- A prerequisite for a successful application is an assessment of whether the worker has contracted the disease at work. It is also necessary to correctly identify which categories of claims the injured person can claim or which family members are entitled to compensation. Here again, it is better to draw on the experience and legal awareness of the law firm.

"I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to the law firm Holubová advokáti s.r.o. for their professional yet genuinely compassionate approach in an exceptionally difficult period of my life.
The firm successfully represented me in a dispute with my health insurance company concerning reimbursement for a medication that enables me to actively fight an oncological illness and has already begun to show positive treatment results.
From the very outset, I felt a high level of expertise, thoroughness, and a genuine interest not only in the case itself but also in the person behind it. All legal steps were explained clearly and comprehensibly, and the communication was factual, calm, and supported by clear arguments. In a time of great uncertainty, this provided me with a much-needed sense of reassurance and trust.
My special and greatest thanks go to JUDr. Klára Dvořáková, whose commitment, precision, and empathy meant more to me than can be conveyed in just a few sentences. Her work was not only highly professional but also marked by human sensitivity and deep respect for the seriousness of the situation.
I can wholeheartedly recommend this law firm to anyone seeking top-tier legal assistance combined with a truly human approach."

"We express our recommendations for the law firm Holubova Advokati.
Holubova Advokati was able to resolve a project for us with confidence, composure, and perseverance that German experts had deemed hopeless.
About 80 years ago, my grandparents and my father had to leave their home. The property has now been returned to our family through the inheritance that was initiated, and thanks to the excellent work of the law firm.
During the two-and-a-half-year negotiations, there were no language problems; everyone was always well informed about the current status.
Keep up the good work, everyone."
