‘Achieving Results for Clients Is the Greatest Reward’

There’s a saying, “Those who have much can lose much.” However, in family law, this is not set in stone. Even when significant interests are at stake, and someone’s lifework is on the line, success depends on preparation, insight, and structure. What is certain, is that you can influence the quality of your legal support by choosing guidance that fits your unique situation.

Marieke Morshuis is a highly experienced family law and inheritance lawyer. With a career spanning more than 35 years, she has handled many complex divorce and inheritance cases. In divorce matters, Marieke focuses on the settlement of prenuptial agreements, the division of community property, and alimony. She also advises and litigates in often large-scale inheritance cases, including those with an international aspect. Professionals such as notaries, tax advisors, fellow lawyers, and executors from all over the Netherlands frequently seek her expertise.

Marieke’s clients are often high-net-worth individuals, many of whom are entrepreneurs or managing directors. Her clients can always count on high-quality legal work, which she combines with a personal and engaged approach. Marieke’s extensive experience enables her to quickly understand the essentials of a case and provide clients with optimal advice, focused on achieving results.

Marieke has been with GMW advocaten for many years and is a key pillar in the family and inheritance law section. She highlights the dedication, knowledge, and commitment of the section, as well as the close collaboration with other colleagues, as major strengths of GMW.
