In a divorce, I can work with both partners or on behalf of one of them.

Making agreements with both divorcing partners

During an exploratory meeting, I get to know both partners. Then I request all documentation relating to the financial situation. I inform the partners about the legal rules and the outcome of the calculations in a detailed letter. In this letter, I provide insight into the points on which agreements must be made. The subjects are not unrelated; I look for creative solutions in cohesion.
If, after discussing the letter, the outlines of the agreements are clear, I draw up a draft settlement. During a meeting, I explain the settlement, so that the consequences for the future become clear. After the settlement and parenting plan have been signed, I hand over the settlement to a family law lawyer. The lawyer files for divorce with the court and informs the divorcing partners of the progress by email.
After registration with the municipality, there is still a lot to arrange. I inform the divorced partners of the action points and, if necessary, call in other experts, such as a civil-law notary or a mortgage consultant.

Individual advice for one of the partners

Another way of working is when I am called in by one of the divorcing partners. In that case, I play a secondary role for this partner, for example by offering a second opinion on the calculations made. At the same time, I play the role of sparring partner, so that my client is well prepared for the mediation process.
