It’s no exaggeration to say ‘Divorce hurts’. But in addition to the emotional aspects of a divorce there are also practical problems, even if you weren’t married but cohabiting. The divorce lawyer is the person to turn to for assistance here. He or she will help you draw up a divorce agreement, a divorce petition, the arrangements concerning parental access, the maintenance arrangements and anything else that is necessary to enable the divorce proceedings to be completed as smoothly as possible. The lawyer can act on behalf of one of the partners, but also as an impartial divorce mediator.
When a divorce has been properly settled, problems may still occur at a later date in connection with (amended) maintenance, arrangements concerning parental access or your former partner remarrying. Here, too, our specialised lawyers can be of assistance. A number of our divorce specialists belong to the association of Dutch Family Law and Divorce Mediators (VFAS) and are registered with the Netherlands Mediation Institute (NMI).This means that you and your partner can have your divorce settled jointly in proper consultation with the same lawyer. The lawyer guards the interests of both partners. And it goes without saying that the interests of the children play a major role here.
