The best service I have ever had from a law firm
10 juni 2025
The expertise, responsiveness, clarity of communication, quality of service, and value for the price is all top tier. I would recommend this firm to anyone looking for services they cover.
Couldn't have done it without them!
10 juni 2025
Inge @ Kroes guided me through the immigration process first as a resident/spouse, and then through the naturalization process to become a Dutch citizen - both successful within 3 years. She was available and informative all the way through, and provided detailed help and review at every step. I always knew where things stood, and whenever I had a problem that I couldn't solve, she stepped in and dealt with a governing body on my behalf. Would highly recommend!
I rarely find myself at a loss for words or easily impressed—but my experience with Sheryl Goldberg
5 juni 2025
I rarely find myself at a loss for words or easily impressed—but my experience with Cheryl Goldberg has been nothing short of exceptional.
I came to Kroes Advocaten on the 88th day of my legal stay in the Netherlands, with only a two-day window remaining to apply for residency under the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty (DAFT). I had previously consulted another attorney who gave me deeply flawed legal advice, leaving me in a precarious position. The contrast between that experience and the professionalism, clarity, and care Cheryl offered was night and day.
Despite being en route to a funeral when I first contacted her, Cheryl made time to discuss my urgent case and submitted my DAFT paperwork to the IND the very next day. From there, her responsiveness and thoroughness only continued. I retained Kroes Advocaten to support me with all remaining steps in the DAFT process—appointments, document coordination, and legal compliance—and Cheryl moved swiftly. Within two weeks, all my appointments were scheduled, and I had clear guidance on how to proceed.
She is not only competent but also incredibly compassionate—two qualities you rarely find packaged together in the legal world. My case was handled with an urgency and thoughtfulness that truly exceeded expectations.
If you're navigating immigration to the Netherlands, Cheryl Goldberg is the attorney you want in your corner.

Sheryl, supported by Justine, guided us through the Blue Card Visa Application with knowledge and patience. Sometimes we were slow to respond, but Sheryl consistently brought us back on track. There were times where we needed more information; to understand the process etc. this was always provided by return and was always helpful. Thank you again.

Dilara Karasahin - The best lawyer I have ever worked with.
21 mei 2025
I had the chance to work with Dilara during a particularly stressful time regarding my residence permit status. While other lawyers gave me incomplete or misleading information, Dilara confidently and effectively resolved my situation thanks to her deep expertise in the EU–Turkey Association Agreement. Throughout the entire process, she was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive, understanding, and thoughtful. Beyond being an amazing legal professional, Dilara genuinely cares about her clients as people and supports them in every way she can. I cannot recommend Dilara highly enough — a top-tier lawyer.
Excellent experience and positive results!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Kroes Advocaten, and we are especially grateful for the support and guidance of Esther Wolthuis. From the moment we began the process of bringing my wife to the Netherlands after, Esther was incredibly helpful, professional, and quick to respond to any questions we had.
She took the time to understand our specific situation and guided us through each step of the immigration process with clarity and care. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, we successfully obtained the visa, something we are beyond grateful for!
We truly felt supported throughout the entire journey and are very happy and satisfied with the service we received. We highly recommend Kroes Advocaten, and especially Esther Wolthuis, to anyone in need of reliable and compassionate legal assistance in immigration matters.
Excellent! All worked well

Florent helped us already for the second time - this time with residence permit for my partner. It went well and efficient - timely communication, providing all required information, helping out with additional requests, even beyond his direct area of responsibility. As a result, we got everything sorted timely (even better than expected). Highly recommended!
Excellent Legal Support and Professionalism
16 mei 2025
I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Dilara from Kroes Advocaten, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, clarity, and dedication in handling all my legal matters in the Netherlands.
Dilara guided me through every step of the process with patience and deep legal expertise. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she made sure I fully understood all the procedures involved. She truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was completed smoothly and successfully.
Thanks to her support, what could have been a stressful experience became manageable and even reassuring. I am incredibly grateful for her help and would strongly recommend her services to anyone in need of trustworthy and efficient legal assistance in the Netherlands.
Thank you, Dilara!
Efficient, Thoughtful and Professional
16 mei 2025
Florent was outstanding in dealing with our case - we knew from the start that our situation would mean we would definitely need a lawyer as our case would be a little harder than most.
We were both self-employed and and I was moving over to live with my partner who is Dutch, on paper we did not fulfil all the standard immigration requirements. However, Florent guided us in making a good case for ourselves that I don't believe we could've done without him.
Throughout the whole process he was on the other end of phone or email with any questions we had and always put us at ease with his confident and professional opinions.
We were so grateful to finally get a positive decision and finally be able to start our lives together, would 100% recommend Florent and Kroes Advocaten to anyone looking to move to the Netherlands.

Advice on Moving to The Netherlands
7 mei 2025
Jelle Kroes was recommended to us by our Immigration lawyer in the UK to advise us on complex nationality issues for an Egyptian national who hoped to move to The Netherlands. We were very impressed by the help we received, both in terms of the advice and the quick response.
Very very professional and excellent

I worked with Anique and wow! Her time with me was very great. She took time to listen to my case and she made what seemed impossible possible for me and my family. Because of her and her firm I was able to reunite with my husband here in the Netherlands and the kids got to have a physical relationship with their dad. I am so grateful for that.
