The damage for those directly and indirectly involved often lasts a lifetime.

These are the lawyers and mediators of our law firm.
Ellis is our Donna (Suits). She supports the attorneys and keeps the office functioning optimally. Ellis doesn’t miss a beat. She is level-headed, straightforward and a real Rotterdam gal.

To find out what is really going on, Fleur listens closely. She acts quickly to restore the peace. And gives her clients the right tools to get through their divorce as smoothly as possible.
Janneke is a family law attorney and mediator. She quickly zooms in on the problem underlying the conflict: Is it really the amount of child support we’re discussing here? Or is there still anger about the divorce getting in the way? If so, then we first need to address the anger. After all: “Without change, nothing will change.” Janneke gets right to the core of the problem. She creates instant clarity in the chaos a divorce.
Caroline Catshoek is a divorce tax attorney, tax saver and pension tax attorney. She focuses on the fiscal aspects of the divorce.

Drs. Irene van Noort is a psychologist (registered with the Netherlands Institute for Psychologists, NIP) and divorce consultation professional (collaborative practitioner). By now she has over 20 years of experience running her own private practice in which she provides coaching, training and advice to be more effective personally. Uiteen calls on the expertise of Irene van Noort when we feel that our client would benefit from additional support in dealing with the divorce. This could be during the divorce process, but also afterwards, for example when the clients need a little extra guidance in their parenting. In addition, Irene can be asked to have a conversation with the child(ren) to hear their voice and to take their interests into account in the divorce consultation or divorce proceedings. Finally, Irene can be engaged as psychologist/coach during a collaborative divorce. Fundamentals of Irene's approach are models grounded in personality theory and behavioural science. She has a talent for identifying ingrained patterns and personal tendencies, which makes it possible to consciously choose for new effective forms of communication with each other in the "post-marriage phase".

This could include, for example, advice about the allocation of accrued benefits.

Roelof takes stock of the accrued benefits for both parties and advises how best to distribute these according to the personal situation and wishes of the client. Furthermore, Roelof helps recently divorced people to gain insight into the new financial reality. Will I have sufficient income after my divorce? Do I need to save extra for my retirement?
