What matters can DILA help you with?
Here you will find some examples of our services.
- A woman has a child, conceived by a Dutchman. The man abandons the woman and the child. In such a case, the Dutch court can be asked to determine that the man is the father of the child. If so, then that has consequences. The child acquires Dutch nationality, has the right to alimony to be paid by the father and if he dies, he also has the right to inherit. The Dutch child also have the right to grow up in the European Union and for this it is necessary that the mother is given a right of residence in the Netherlands.
- A woman has a child, conceived by a man who is not a Dutch citizen but who does have a right of residence in the Netherlands. In that case, too, it is possible to have paternity established through the court. The child does not become a Dutch citizen, but is entitled to alimony and possibly the right to inherit.
- One of a married couple goes to work in the Netherlands and fails to support the spouse left behind. In that case, the marriage partner residing in the Netherlands may be obliged to make a contribution to the maintenance of the spouse left behind and any children.
- A person living in the Netherlands dies. Somewhere in the world someone lives with a possible inheritance claim and who does not know how to act. DILA can lead the way.
- Someone has a problem with the Dutch government. For example, if an application for a visa for family visits, a right of residence or a benefit is rejected. An objection can be lodged against such a rejection within the term.
- Someone has previously lived and worked in the Netherlands and is entitled to a Dutch benefit, for example on the basis of the Disability Act or the General Old Age Pensions Act.

Therefore, do not hesitate to ask your question if you think you have a right that can be realized in the Netherlands.
