Very professional, efficient and supportive.
The process went very smoothly, I received all the information and advice I was seeking. Once we agreed on the terms and conditions, It was simple to follow their instructions, the web portal is great and very handy, and the communication was always efficient and right on time. I highly recommend Elles Besselen, she is very kind, thorough and patient.

Very positive experience from the start, which resulted in success!
From the very beginning Elles was very supportive and positive regarding our case, giving the faith in possible success, and success is what the application process resulted in! Apart of great professionalism, Elles and her team have open mind and approach every case individually, which I found vital in our situation, as it was quite unique and needed some serious brainstorming to be handled. I am very grateful to Elles and her team for their legal advice and support and can wholeheartedly recommend them!

Outstanding
The guidelines were very clear and steps taken to complete the legal formality for application was conveyed clearly. Response to queries was quick. It really helped me to overcome stress with VISA and concentrate on my work and usual day-to-day life. Kristy was amazingly helpful.

Patient, Responsive and Efficient dealings
The entire process happened smoothly and I was kept informed well in advance. On the top of that, I have received satisfactory and timely answers to all my queries. I highly appreciate the literal no-hiccup conduct, which is extremely rare.

Detailed information, Solid roadmap with room for improvement
A clear roadmap is provided every step of the way with a detailed explanation. However, involvement can be increased. For example, acquiring appointments with the embassy or BSN number appointments can be booked in advance which can help the candidate a lot in navigating the problems ahead. In my case, I still do not have a BSN number a month after my arrival.

Fantastic and swift in taking action
I am an expat using Everaert Advocaten for skilled immigrant visa to Netherlands. I must say the service has been amazing. I would like to give a big shout out to attorney Kirsty Gies. Probably one of the best immigration attorney's I have worked with. She is very swift in resolving any immigration questions or concerns to make your life easy. I highly suggest this firm if you are looking for an immigration firm.

Great communication and quick responses to personal queries
Overall I had a very good experience in obtaining my residential cards and IND approval efficiently, and communication wise the replies were good and fast. However, there are a couple of points that could be improved. - In the beginning I received advice that I couldn't apply jointly with my wife because we had to legalise our marriage document, and in my case I had to do that in the Netherlands itself. Their advice was for me to travel by myself to the Netherlands and apply for my wife later (which means weeks or months). I ended up having to arrange this by myself via a friend and figuring out how to legalise it by myself before we apply. The advice here was not very helpful, and I think Everaert could have helped more in arranging suitable alternatives. - I find everaert approaching the process step by step literally but not looking forward to the process as a whole and identifying the steps that can take sometime. For example, only after I got my IND approval, Everaert detailed my next step which was to book an appointment with the Dutch embassy for my MVV application. The problem is that the portal will only show appointments for after 2 months (due to covid), which could have delayed my travel to the Netherlands greatly. Thankfully, I did my research earlier and booked an embassy appointment way before I even started the process with Everaert. I booked a date after doing a rough estimate of the whole process duration. I think Everaert could have suggested booking an appointment during the first week of our intro call or during the same time we applied to the IND, not after it.
