Deposit not refunded?

Has your rental ended and you have wrongly not received your deposit back? Then read on!

Try it yourself first

You will recover your deposit the fastest and most economically by asking for it yourself in writing. If that doesn’t work, send a registered letter at least once. You can download an example with explanation here.

In the registered letter (you may also send it by registered e-mail, as long as the proof of receipt is reliable) you also claim interest and debt collection costs.

What if my ex-landlord fails to return my deposit even after a registered letter?

Then it is time to engage us. Be sure to check our fees page to see if you are eligible for government-subsidised legal aid or discounts on our hourly rate, otherwise hiring a lawyer could well be more expensive than what it pays for.

About to sign a new labour contract?

If you intend to sign a labour contract, have it scanned by our specialists before you sign.

All-in fee

For a one time all-in fee of € 695 (including VAT) we will scan your labour contract and point out the risks and points of improvement essential for you. Remember, as soon as you have an offer to conclude a labour agreement, your future employer is invested in you: they will listen to you if you have reasonable requests with regards to changes in the contract. We will watch for typical risks expats run when concluding labour contracts in The Netherlands, just because they are unfamiliar with Dutch labour practices.
