In the Netherlands, child custody (referred to as “ouderlijk gezag”) is determined based on what is in the best interests of the child. The court considers several factors, including the child’s preferences, their relationship with each parent, and any potential risks to their well-being. The court may issue a “gezags- of omgangsregeling” (custody or visitation order) that outlines the living arrangements and the time the child will spend with each parent.
At Vletter Law, we specialize in family law, providing expert guidance to ensure that the rights and best interests of both children and parents are protected during custody disputes in the Netherlands.
In the Netherlands, an employer cannot terminate your employment without a valid reason. Dutch employment law requires employers to have a legitimate reason for dismissal, which can include performance issues, misconduct, or redundancy. Additionally, the employer must follow a fair procedure, which involves obtaining permission from the Employee Insurance Agency (UWV) or the court, depending on the type of dismissal. If the dismissal is deemed unjustified, you may be entitled to compensation or reinstatement.
At Vletter Law, we offer expert legal advice to navigate the complexities of employment law in the Netherlands, ensuring that your rights are protected and that any dismissal is handled according to legal requirements.

In the Netherlands, the terms “misdemeanor” and “felony” are not used. Instead, criminal offenses are categorized as “overtredingen” (minor offenses) and “misdrijven” (serious offenses). Minor offenses are less severe and are typically dealt with by the magistrate’s court, while serious offenses are more severe and are handled by the district court.
At Vletter Law, we offer expert legal assistance to help you navigate the distinctions between different types of criminal offenses and ensure a fair legal process.
