Lawyers & mediators for family law, inheritance law and employment law
For any question you have, we offer clear and thorough legal advice to help you make the right decisions. Our lawyers are ready to support you, whether in legal proceedings or through mediation. In addition, our lawyers and legal experts are available for confidential, independent advice or a second opinion.
In our personal and family law practice, we address various aspects of life, including custody issues, marriage, divorce, alimony, and first name changes. These issues encompass both personal and financial aspects, often having significant emotional impact and far-reaching consequences.
In our international practice, we handle divorce, alimony, property division, and custody issues across national borders. We assist Dutch nationals abroad and expatriates in the Netherlands by providing solutions that take into account cultural nuances and international legal complexities.
Our expertise in both Dutch family law and private international law enables us to provide effective solutions that consider cultural differences and international complexities.
In addition to the emotional impact of a family death, bereaved families often encounter numerous questions. Who will settle the legacy? How should the inheritance be divided? What does the legitimate portion mean? And is it possible to refuse rather than accept the inheritance? Moreover, conflicts over the settlement of the estate frequently arise.
Employment law is constantly evolving, posing ongoing challenges for employers to stay abreast of increasingly complex laws and regulations. Much is also expected of them in terms of being good employers. On the other hand, a labor dispute, reorganization, or long-term absenteeism can have profound effects on an employee’s life.
