Lawyer – Pro Bono (Dutch Tenancy/Labour Law)

As a lawyer, I specialise in tenancy law, labour law, IP law (copyright law), corporate law and procedural law.

My girlfriend studied Russian in Amsterdam and lived in Kyiv for a while. She speaks and reads Russian if necessary.

If you need legal support in the Netherlands, I can help. I’m a “sociaal advocaat” as they say in the Netherlands; this basically means taking cases pro bono or supported by government funding for people who cannot afford legal support.

I can imagine I could help if you run into trouble with your landlord, employer or publisher.

A beginner’s guide to Dutch academia

This guide, an introduction to Dutch research and higher education, serves as a support document for researchers and instructors who are unfamiliar with the Dutch academic setting. It may also provide insight for those who have already been working in Dutch academia for a few years. It was written primarily with new ‘senior’ academic staff in mind, but will hopefully be useful for postdoctoral and doctoral researchers as well. The emphasis lies on professional challenges and opportunities.
