kahjujuhtudel

Kahjujuhtudel is an Estonian term used in legal and insurance language to denote “in cases of damage” or “in the event of damage.” It is formed from kahju, meaning damage, and juhtudel, meaning cases or instances. The phrase functions as a conditional marker, signaling that the following provisions apply only if damage has occurred or is alleged. It is not a standalone legal concept but a common formulation in contract language to separate standard terms from those that come into effect after damage.

Usage and contexts: Kahjujuhtudel appears in insurance policies, rental agreements, service contracts, and consumer notices. It helps allocate liability, determine remedies, or specify claim procedures that activate upon damage. For example, a policy might indicate which coverage applies kahjujuhtudel, along with documentation requirements and deadlines for filing a claim. In rental or service contracts, kahjujuhtudel provisions may describe repair obligations, compensation limits, or procedures for reporting and assessing damage.

Language notes: The form kahjujuhtudel is used in a context that signals conditional applicability tied to damage. Its exact inflection can vary with sentence structure, but the core meaning remains “in the event of damage.” Translations into other languages are typically rendered as “in the event of damage” or “in case of loss.”
