11 September is Divorce Day 2020 – book your free legal advice here

What is Divorce Day?

Divorce Day is a day for anyone in The Netherlands who wants to know more about his or her divorce. This national initiative was started by vFAS, the Dutch association for family and divorce lawyers. Every year on Divorce Day, lawyers around the Netherlands provide free advice and information to the public about divorce and related topics.

A lawyer I could fully trust

“Dylan dealt with my divorce, representing both me and my ex husband. He was very professional and thorough with preparing the covenant, as a result our divorce was very quickly handled, we didn’t need to be present at court and it was a smooth process. It was very pleasant working with him and to have a lawyer that I could fully trust. I would highly recommend working with him and with GMW lawyers in general.”

Amazing

“I am incredibly grateful to you. I could not have wished for a better lawyer. You have really done everything for my child and me. From a legal point of view, I think you have made the most of it and as a person you are truly amazing.”

Outstanding support during tough time

“I worked with Ryanne van Manen from GMW lawyers for two years on a complex divorce case which involved legislation in the Netherlands, UK and USA. She was outstanding. Her meticulous attention to detail, confidence in court and strategy whilst handling the case were flawless, in my opinion and I’m hugely grateful for that. Above all, she was empathetic to my struggles through the case and showed great interpersonal skills to keep me going through what felt like such a negative period.”
