Divorce & Separation
You joined your partner with eyes open and great intentions. But things change. Now, for whatever reasons, it’s time to part. The emotion of that ending can cloud one’s perspective and make it hard to imagine life beyond the separation.
But life does go on. So we at Dutch Family Lawyer work to de-escalate conflicts so you’re in the best position to get the post-separation life you deserve. Because as the song goes, “Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end,”
Divorce
Even the most agreeable divorces can be painful. While we can’t take away the pain, we’ll stand by you to make it easier to move on.
Post-divorce disputes
Disagreements sometimes last after the exhausting divorce procedure has finished. We’ll help you find the strength — and the legal basis — to settle matters once and for all.
Property division
A partnership isn’t just a matter of the heart: It’s a matter of property and law. We’ll work for you with compassion to find equitable settlements that comply with Dutch law.
Community property
What do you own without your partner? You might be surprised, because Dutch law assumes that some things are owned by both of you “communally”. We’ll find out what’s yours.
Unmarried couples
Not every partnership involves a wedding ceremony. But unmarried couples can have legal rights and obligations, too. We’ll look at your specific situation for solutions that fit you well.
