Administrative law

The government makes decisions every day that can have a direct impact on you. Think of permits, subsidies, benefits, taxes, enforcement measures or fines. Such decisions do not always turn out the way you expected or hoped. Through our administrative law services, we help you clearly and effectively defend your rights vis-à-vis the government.

Our services

In addition to handling objection and appeal procedures, we offer a wide range of support in administrative law, including:

Objections and appeals against government decisions

We assess the decision, discuss your prospects, and prepare a well-reasoned notice of objection or appeal.
Among other things in cases involving:

  • Refusal or revocation of permits

  • Penalty orders or administrative enforcement

  • Administrative fines

  • Subsidy decisions

  • Decisions on benefits and allowances

Permits, spatial planning and environmental law

We assist you with applications, viewpoints, and procedures relating to:

  • Environmental permits (construction, renovation, environmental matters)

  • Zoning plans and environmental plans

  • Enforcement procedures in cases of (alleged) violations

  • Compensation for planning damage and loss

Social security law and benefit matters

Are you facing a rejection, reclaiming, or reduction of your benefit? We support you in matters concerning:

  • Social Assistance Act (Participatiewet)

  • WIA, WAO and other disability schemes

  • Sickness Benefits Act and Unemployment Insurance Act (ZW and WW)

Public order, safety and other administrative disputes

You can also turn to us for various other disputes with government authorities, such as:

  • Other measures based on public order and safety

From initial advice to the hearing

We think strategically with you, clarify the opportunities and risks, and guide you through the entire process: from the first assessment and communication with the government to the court hearing or higher appeal. This way, you never stand alone against the government you have a specialist at your side.
