I'm an Australian who needed help applying for residency based on my relationship with my EU partner (a UK national). After having initial conversations and getting quotes from a couple of Amsterdam-based immigration law firms that were a bit confusing, I contacted Everaert Advocaten based on their high review scores, and was put in touch with Eline Van Deijck. Eline made the process easy to understand, and the process took very little effort from my side. Eline was always available to answer any questions I had and always returned my emails & phone calls promptly. And impressively, in a case where the IND made a clerical error that would have prevented me from being allowed to start my new job in the Netherlands on time, Eline fixed their error very quickly, and I was able to start my job on time which was a huge relief. I very highly recommend Eline and Everaert Advocaten for their excellent service and value - their prices for my case were the best of any quote I received.

I want two primary features from any legal counsel: 1) expertise; and 2) responsiveness. I got both from Hermie de Voer at Everaert Advocaten and consequently I thoroughly recommend this firm.

Ms. de Voer has been very professional and knowledgeable throughout the whole process. She or her staff have kept me informed at all times.

We would like to thank Mrs. Elles Besselsen for leading our case and successful cooperation. Thanks to a professional approach, we obtained a satisfying result, which was the receipt of a temporary residence permit as a family member.

Mrs. Elles Besselsen, thanks to her knowledge, commitment and accuracy in the performance of her duties, led us through the complexities of procedures and legal provisions. She was always ready to answer our questions, effectively and gave us her legal knowledge. Great personal and telephone contact, willingness to help and kindness are wonderful features of Mrs. Elles Besselsen.

With full responsibility, we can recommend Ms. Elles Besselsen as an effective, trustworthy and professional Lawyer.

Kind regards
Emilia Góral and Prakash Bista

Received excellent Expat support to file applications and secure a residence card. Highly recommend.

Smooth experience with all information communicated effectively on time.

Duidelijke en zakelijke communicatie met toch voldoende betrokkenheid. Zeer tevrden. Heb een collega die ook advies nodig heeft jullie aanbevolen.

I appreciate Kirsty's skills and experience. Everything was very fast, clear and in good quality! She used to explained everything very clearly and detailed in high level in email that sometimes I had not any questions to her. If I had questions she was explaining very carefully and with big patience. I was really very glad for that my case was on Kirsty. I am pretty sure next time I also would like to work with her and trust my case to her!

I am really grateful to Hermie for the highly professional service she provided to me. From the very first moment I had a feeling that I am cared about and she was personally involved into the process of getting me and my son new residence permits till the very successful end! I have already recommended Everaert and especially Hermie to several of my friends! Thanks a lot!

Having Everaert Advocaten assist me with my visa application was seamless. Hermie's team was efficient, responsive, and detailed, which led to a successful application with the IND.

I would not hesitate to recommend this firm to my family and friends, and will use them again in the future.

I met with Hermie just once regarding naturalisation. She guided me expertly in that one meeting. What has made her stand out is her willingness to help me since then with a number of unexpected queries. She has been speedy, interested and very clear. I could not recommend her more highly.

Kirsty triggered all actions timely and proactively.
She also informed me regularly about residence permit application progress and made me feel comfortable with it.
She took into account the busy schedule of IND during christmas holiday and made appointments way in advance so I can get return visa for traveling abroad if needed
Thank you very much.

Kirsty was clear and helpful in her communication, and prompt and thoughtful with follow-ups.

Aangezien ik het prettiger vind om te bellen in plaats van te mailen, heb ik alleen de communicatie en betrokkenheid een lager cijfer gegeven dan de rest.

Verder was het helemaal naar verwachting en ik heb dit advocaten bureau meerdere keren aanbevolen aan vrienden en collega's

I'm very pleased with the way my case was handled. Excellent communication and quick response. I will definitely recommend this law firm to people. And Elles is best at her work.

One of the prime reasons I chose to leave Berlin to move to Amsterdam has been because of the email and phone conversations with Kirsty. She installed confidence in me by explaining all the immigration processes in detail. The best immigration service I have received, everything was so smooth. Highly recommend Kirsty.

I'm happy with the quality of services provided by Everaert Advocaten, as my immigration case required specific approach. The process went very smooth and each step was coherent.

Vera Kidjan has accompanied us every step of the way during our adoption process and the appeal, in the Netherlands and Thailand. I don't think we would ever have made it without her help. We are thankful for her advice and have enjoyed working towards a positive outcome with her.

Kirsty helps me with the KM apply, address register, 30% ruling, and renew resident card.
She is very patient and whenever i have a question she explained to me very careful and in detail.
She really helps me a lot and saves me a lot of time on searching the information that i should take notes.

Wonderful experience! Kristy took care about all documents, all I need to do is a make an appointment at IND site (link was also provided by Krysty!) and grab my stickers and cards.

I had a very positive experience working with Vera, first on my DAFT residence permit, then on a change to a different residence permit (which we ended up canceling because I got Dutch citizenship). At all points in these processes, Vera and her assistant provided clear explanations of the phases and anticipated length of these processes and the steps I needed to take. They also responded promptly to any questions I had. I would definitely recommend Vera and Everaert Advocaten to others.

My experience with Kirsty was amazing, she'd always reply in time and answer to all of my questions. She is also very polite and professional, it was a great pleasure to interact with her, I had a very nice experience with her.

Many thanks to Kirsty!
She helped me getting to work in Netherlands starting from collecting all documents in my country and we finished when I received my residence permit in Amsterdam.
I can recommend Kirsty as highly skilled and careful professional.

The entire process was extremely easy for me and my family. There was very little that we needed to do and all emails we received clearly explained the process and what we needed to do. THANKS!

Eline was amazing. Very helpful, very professional and super nice during the whole process. We felt like having a friend helping us during the process and that was perfect.

Very professional and warm service! Everything was correctly and efficiently arranged.

Execellent experience with Kirsty, very clear in all communications and requests. very helpful in answering all the questions. the process was very smoothly with Kirsty.

The level of Eline's competency, responsibility and professionalism is unmatched. I got a service that was beyond my expectation. My case was solved and handled with prompt responses and precise advice.

Thomas has been very helpful all the way. He communicates very well with me (his client) and my partner as well as other parties such as my employer and the IND. He makes sure that we understand everything and explains different options or consequences etc.. I am very happy and thankful for his help because if not for him and his expertise, I would not be able to get my Visa going.

Reliable and very professional .

I have had a very good experience with Kirsty. She has assisted me very well, cleared all my queries, that too very timely and promptly.
I have also been notified in detail about what documents I should carry, about all the procedures related to immigration so that I do not have to face any problems.
In short, I thank her very much and would definitely recommend her to anyone who asks me.
I am still in contact with her regarding tax ruling, and am sure she would help me out there as well.

Great

Kirsty assisted my immigration process (initial registration, obtainment of BSN, 30% ruling application). It went extremely smoothly - everything was taken care of so I could focus on my new job and settling down in A'dam. I appreciate her professionalism and proactive approach.

very helpful and very clear directions

Erg fijn contact met Hermie en kundig, snel en helder advies ontvangen! Dank!

Thomas is a brilliant attorney. He skillfully navigated me through the immigration process and identified important issues. Moreover, he introduced me to skilled professionals required, particularly a Dutch CPA who helped me avoid a significant tax issue.

Overall positive experience. Fast and comprehensive replies, clear explanations.

I was very impressed with professionalism of Mr. Van Houwelingen. His experience, involvement and excellent communication skills have been utterly helpful.

Was very efficient. Got in touch with me when my company had requested it, kept me up to date and then even as soon as she had received all the answers, let me know.

Very quick and efficient.

Was put into contact with Everaert Advocaten through the Dutch embassy in New Zealand who were unable to answer my questions regarding my ability to gain Dutch citizenship. Mirjam den Besten (on behalf of Hermie de Voer) provided clear and understandable advice in a timely manner. Would recommend to anyone.

The staff was very organized, professional and experienced. Everything we agreed on was executed in a professional way. I really appreciate the experience of dealing with you

marcel went way above and beyond. he helped me every step of the way and kept it simple,because i was over whelmed.the service was super great,he cares and it shows. his great attention to the matter spoke bigger than words.thank you marcel,you made it happen..

I received great help and information during my Search Year Visa process. I felt that there was a good flow of communication and that my questions were always answered in a fast and effective way.

Total een prettige en behulpzame ervaring. Ik was geholpen door Bram van Melle en Maarten Schippers. Kan Everaert Advocaten aanbevelen.

Thomas was always prompt in responding to my questions and concerns. He communicates very well in English and is very skilled at explaining Dutch law in a manner that is understandable to lay people. His billing was also very fair. L

Problems encountered during the execution of the service was properly communicated to me with an advise on what should be done. Thus, I am happy with the service provided.

Great experience

I had a simple request around dual nationality, and got the unequivocal answer I was hoping for (rare to get a black-and-white answer when getting legal advice ;-)) in a very timely manner. The only small thing I would suggest is to reconsider using Skype. It requires client-side setup, and there are enough alternatives with a lower barrier of entry (Google Hangouts, Zoom, Bluejeans - all run in-browser).

Kirsty has been greatly helpful throughout the process. Starting from the documents necessary for immigration to setting up an appointment at the IND desk everything was handled very smoothly. Immigration being a complicated procedure, me and my wife never felt any dearth of information or support at any stage of the process including the ones at Indian Embassy. I would highly recommend Kirsty and her Everaert to all my contacts for their professionalism and excellent service.

I have had no issues and everything has been arranged for me in a very smooth and prompt way. the emails were always very explanatory and clear

Accessible and effective service at all times. Advice was always suitable, with quick responses and results.

Kirsty is very professional and helpful. Every process I had with my documents were scheduled and planned in time.

She is also good at solving emergencyies: when I was in China, Kirsty helped me with applying initial foreign working visa. I had to fly to Beijing to visit the embassy for handing in documents in person. However, I got rejected by the officer for the first time I visted, the officer thought I was applying for the wrong visa. I contacted Kirsty and she immediately solved the problem with contacting the Dutch officer in the embassy and explained the situation. The second day I got my documents processed in time before I fly back to my hometown.

Kirsty is also fast at providing in time suggestions as well. When I found out my travel date is later than the expiration of current resident ID, and my new one was still waiting to be issued. Kirsty immediately booked me meetings at IND to apply for temp visa.

I consulted with Hermie de Voer on two occasions on questions of Dutch nationality laws. I found her professional, fast, directly to the point, exact and very pleasant to deal with.

I would recommend her very much.

Geweldig advies en ondersteuning met uitmuntend resultaat

Ik ben uitstekend geholpen door Bram van Melle, wil hem heel erg bedanken. Ik beveel hem zeker aan.

Overall the service from Eline was outstanding. I felt she genuinely cared about my case and went the extra mile to help me. She was also very detailed in every correspondence. I would definitely seek her advice and service again if ever needed in the future and would not hesitate to recommend her to others.

very proffesional and informative.

Professional, kundig , betrokken. Advocaat begreep behoefte aan no-nonsense stijl. Efficiënt. Goedkoop.

Vera and the team made the process of applying for my Dutch citizenship through the options method extremely easy and straight forward. Vera has now assisted all my siblings and we have all had successful applications! Thanks Vera and team.

We contacted Everaert Advocaten to get consultation and some help with the appeal to IND because of negative decision on our case (residence permit for self-employed).
Everything was done professionally and quickly. We got all required information.
As a result after 6 month we got positive decision and permit.

I have a flexible one year contract attached to a hiring agency and intend to apply for permanent residence permit. My first application was objected by IND due to they considered that the type of my contract causes an insufficient income. Eline helped me for the objection process with providing extra supplements and we finally got a positive decision from IND.

Zeer vriendelijke en betrokken deskundigheid. Zowel van Adam Diels als ook van Xinwen Ruan en Eline van Deijck.
Extra dimensie gaf het vloeiende Chinees van Adam en uiteraard van Xinwen, hetgeen speciaal voor Ping zeer vertrouwen wekkend overkwam. Zij was daar erg blij mee. En ik ook,want hoewel ik inmiddels al aardig Chinees spreek, was deze materie voor mij nog lang niet vertaalbaar. Peter Hoezen/Ping Wang.

Very pleasant and received support till the end

The consultancy we received was very good. Setting the right expectations and fulfilling it.
During the process IND made a major mistake of mixing our records with other individuals. It was swiftly managed and corrected by the help of our counterpart at your firm.

Impossibles made possible. ....
Hopeless becomes hopeful.....

Within 3months my life is new after i met these increadible emigration lawyers.
