Tenancy Law


The field of tenancy law is constantly changing. Tenancy law is therefore not always simple and clear-cut. Our experts are specialised in all matters regarding Dutch Tenancy Law. Our experts have considerable experience representing landlords as well as tenants. We have been the legal advisor for many housing corporations and professional landlords for years. Do you need advice on the legal implications of a possible renovation or are you dealing with rent arrears, nuisance or defects concerning the rented property? Our experts can answer your questions and know all the possibilities and pitfalls of tenancy law.                                 

We can help you from an early stage, for instance by drafting a rental agreement, ensuring that you do not ask your tenant to sign a contract that is against the law and which you will ultimately be unable to enforce. The termination of a rental agreement is also subject to all sorts of rules. If you ask us to advise you during the termination process, you won’t run any risk of being stuck with your tenant for an unlimited period of time.

In addition to our knowledge of tenancy law (residential and commercial space), we also have specialists in the field of (spatial) administrative law.
