I contacted Pam Meeuwsen regarding my case "residence with your minor dutch child": we discussed my questions and available options, she helped me to prepare set documents and managed application process.
Throughout my communication with Sander Groen, I was genuinely impressed by his responsiveness and execution speed. A process that was initially expected to take 2–3 months was completed within just one month — even including the Christmas and New Year holiday period. It was truly remarkable.
Thanks for support
I was fortunate to be able to work with Ms. Karasahin on my application for Dutch citizenship by the option procedure. She was very professional and responsive. My application had some complicating factors, and she was able to help me navigate them effectively. She prepared my application, which was a substantial document. When I turned it in at the Consulate in Washington DC, they saw her name on my application and they knew of Ms. Karasahin's reputation for preparing thorough applications! I think that was very helpful in getting my application approved without any delays. It could not have gone more smoothly. My sister plans to engage Ms. Karasahin when she files her application.
Over times and since very beginning of my presence in the country till became Dutch Citizen, i had professional advise from Sander! Truly clear path and preparation in every steps of Permanent Residency and Dutch Citizenship. With Sander, I could have straight forward and clear advise, realistic timeline and cost. Definitely advise his services to whom they are in need of legal services in immigration.
We met with Sheryl Goldberg to discuss the DAFT visa and walked away with clarity and excitement for our future. Sheryl is very well-informed and made helpful suggestions that will help guide our decisions. Before our meeting, Sheryl consistently followed up with us and efficiently scheduled it. Whenever we need future support, we will be sure to contact her again.
Ik ben ontzettend goed geholpen door “Kroes Advocaten”, en in het bijzonder door Edward van Kempen. Dankzij zijn inzet is de zaak succesvol afgerond. De communicatie verliep soepel en ze waren altijd goed bereikbaar. Een absolute aanrader voor iedereen die op zoek is naar juridische kwaliteit!
It was about my first job in Nederland! And I am so happy that Inge made this process a perfect experience for me! I aporeciate her support and her responsibility to react fast! Thanks!
I had great experience working with Sheryl, she has indept knowledge of the immigration laws and also she is very prompt in email response. I had successful results with Kroes Advocaten.
Agata provided outstanding assistance with the residence permit applications for our children. She guided us through the entire process with clarity and professionalism, managing all aspects efficiently while keeping us fully informed at every stage.
I had an excellent experience working with my lawyer on my visa application. From start to finish, they were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and well-organized. The entire process was handled efficiently and on time, with clear guidance at every step. They were always responsive, helpful, and quick to answer any questions I had.
Irene was great. From first contact we felt sure she could help us navigate a difficult situation. We were guided very clearly through the process and even when the hurdles were put in front of us she continued to support and direct us through. We got our permit thanks to Irene and are happily settling into Dutch life after what seemed an impossible move from the UK. I would recommend Irene team to anyone needing help navigating dutch immigration. We have our business up and running in NL and couldn’t be happier.
Kroes Attorneys is highly professional and friendly. Their lawyers are very helpful and closely monitor the application throughout the process. I was laid off and found myself in an urgent situation where I needed my long-term residence permit approved quickly. They proposed several contingency plans from the start to ensure I have the lowest chance of losing my residence status if the long-term permit were rejected. In the end, everything turned out very well, although the IND decision took longer than the deadline they initially indicated. Agata was very patient and called the IND many times to follow up. A few days after the deadline, Agata even sent the notice of default (ingebrekestelling) to IND. IND made the decision a few days after that. After I received my long-term residence permit card, they even checked that all the details on it were correct.
Justine went above and beyond in ensure my visa documents were filed on time. I’m grateful for her diligence, proactiveness, and generosity. She was truly a valued partner and super collaborative, putting me at ease and guiding me through a complicated process. Can’t thank her enough!
Sander Groen has been extremely helpful at every step of the process for filing the PR application for me and my family. I would recommend kroesadvocaten to anyone who requires the services of immigration lawyers.
We were working along with Agata on a partner permit while I was getting laid off. Agata was very quick to respond and worked well under the time pressure. Since I was getting laid off and my partner did mot have a steady income it was a trickier case but we were guided through clearly and competently. Agata was also excellent at keeping up, being involved, and checking in on us at regular intervals. It was a worthwhile investment in a tricky immigration case.
Sander Groen is a highly skilled and knowledgeable lawyer with extensive experience in handling complex and non-standard cases. Our case was particularly challenging, starting with the rejection of our residence application. Throughout the entire process, Sander provided clear guidance, strong legal representation, and continuous support. He remained consistently available and responsive, and his dedication ultimately led us to obtaining a Dutch passport. We are very grateful for his professionalism and commitment and would highly recommend Sander and the firm.
Pam was the best lawyer I could have found! She was courteous, responsive and she always was able to answer my many questions. I tried to take care of this on my own, but after the IND rejected my request for residency after my marriage, Pam had a couple different options for me. She suggested an option which allowed me to obtain my residency while we waited for her to pursue our marriage residency option. I would HIGHLY recommend Pam and her firm should you need help with residency information.

I am extremely grateful for the dedication, attention to detail, and fast handling of my case. I highly recommend these services to anyone looking for reliable and professional legal support in the Netherlands.
Kroes Advocaten has been an outstanding partner throughout my residence permit and immigration processes. My case was handled by Sander Groen, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one, Sander was extremely knowledgeable, proactive, and detail oriented. He guided me through every step with clarity, always explaining the process in a way that made complex procedures feel simple and manageable. What I appreciated most was his availability and responsiveness, whenever I had a question or concern, he was there with a clear and reassuring answer. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kroes Advocaten to anyone looking for reliable, expert support in migration and residence permit matters.
Pieter has been absolutely amazing at helping me over this past year with preparing for my move and getting my DAFT. I had planned this whole move within a year to flee my homeland, and Pieter has made it so easy and taken care of so much for me so I could focus on other steps. I am so glad I found them!
Justine helped me obtain my residence permits in both 2023 and 2025. Both experiences were smooth and hassle-free. Thank you!
Very helpful
Kroes Advocaten is truly a reliable and highly professional law firm for migration-related cases. My case was handled by Sander Groen, who proved to be exceptionally knowledgeable, dedicated, and thorough throughout the entire process. Sander consistently provided clear information about each step of the permit procedures, and he was always available whenever I had questions. I have renewed my residence permit three times with the support of this firm, and every renewal was handled smoothly and efficiently. Sander’s expertise and commitment made a significant difference, and I strongly recommend both him and Kroes Advocaten to anyone seeking assistance with migration matters.
Justine supported me throughout my work‑permit application, and the entire process went smoothly. She kept me informed at every stage, clearly explaining the roadmap and the next steps. She was always available for calls and even provided guidance on my permanent‑residence permit. Thanks to her support, my work permit was approved, and shortly afterward my permanent permit was issued as well. Excellent service and communication throughout.
