Every EU working student in the Netherlands should check this out. Avant Advocaten have helped me for months without any charges and even though it is a long process, they have been extremely helpful and I highly recommend them. Thanks to them, I have successfully received student finance after DUO rejected my application on the basis of insufficient working hours (less than 56 hours per month). Besides, I have also received several payments of penalty fees from DUO (dwangsom) because DUO is usually too late at making decisions, which according to national law results in a penalty fee. Avant Advocaten has also been extremely careful in bookkeeping, and did all of the hard work for me, all free of charge. It almost sounds too good to be true, but in this case, it is very true!

I am glad that I decided to contact Avant Advocaten. They are a very nice and professional team that helped me fight the case against the Dutch government. All it took is to write an email to Avant. So I encourage every student who was denied their right to a fair decision from the government to fight systematic discrimination.

I had a great experience with this company of lawyers. They are very hard working and honest professionals, who would guide you thoroughly regarding your case. Special shoot out goes to our lawyer Parabhjot Singh, who helped us immensely for my case regarding rental agreement with the landlord. It was a pleasure and a comforting experience working with her. I recommend this company for anyone seeking advice on law matters epecially if it relates to property matters, they would professionally and meticulously deal your case.

I was denied the student loan from DUO last year based on the argument that I was not working with a permanent contract but only doing an internship. My friend had told me about Avant Advocaten and that they had helped her with a similar situation. After contacting them, they told me that under EU law, I am indeed eligible for the loan. It did take a year in the end, but a couple months ago, DUO finally reconsidered their negative decision and I now got the student loan for all the months last year that I was working as part of my internship. You need a lot of patience as DUO is very slow and takes a lot of time. I would always do it again though as Avant Advocaten was doing everything for me, I only needed to send them relevant information and documents supporting the case. Highly recommended and can't express my gratitude enough! An exclusively positive experience with them. Professional, always polite and efficient!

Excellent service, handled everything from explaining the situation, the laws, and what result was to be expected. I had a case against the Dutch government that Avant Advocaten managed to turn far more in my favor than I could've even imagined, and the outcome gave me marked freedom in a time I needed it most. The best part about it is that throughout the year the case was pending, they did most of the work and I only had to answer a few questions they asked, 10/10 would recommend.

Ook ik ben via het huurteam doorverwezen naar Avant Advocaten vanwege een huurgeschil met mijn voormalige huisbaas. Dhr Stalpels heeft de zaak opzich genomen en heeft dit ook uitstekend gedaan. Door goede communicatie en de juiste adviezen heb ik nooit het gevoel gehad dat er iets langs mij heenging. En de uitkomst van de procedure was helemaal naar wens!

The communication with Avant Advocaten was very efficient and it helped me resolve my issue without any further complications. I'm very thankful to Gor and his team. I wish you all the best!

I would highly recommend Avant Advocaten to every non-dutch student trying to get student finance. I would never manage to get the finance without them. With their help I managed to get the full student credit while working around 32h a month (or even less). DUO makes the whole process really long but in the end it pays off.

I came across their advertisement on instagram about how they support EU students for free on receiving their well-deserved student finance right after my application was rejected by DUO. I was a bit skeptical at first whether to trust the advertisement but I gave it a chance after reading the reviews. I couldn't be happier that I did!They supported me for free during the whole process which took 2 years and I won the case against DUO. I received the money I should have received during my studies a month ago. I am so thankful to Avant Advocaten for what they do. I especially thank Parabhjot Singh and Gor Gabrelian for their for all their help and smooth communication.

Hands down - great, professional law firm. I do recommend.Avant Advocaten is a very competent and experienced legal practice able to deal with complex cases. They are flexible in terms of time and location (also able to help remotely), extremely punctual, organised and communicative. Everything was delivered correctly and on time. They offer clear, professional advice and have fluent English.I needed to deal with incorrect handling of my case by DUO. After I sent an email, Avant's attorney contacted me, explained the procedure and handled the case over to another attorney (Mr. Stalpers) who was responsible for my case till the end. Mr. Stalpers did a great job - he showed a lot of understanding and professionalism in how he handled the case and advised me on possible further actions. The outcome was successful and we managed to press DUO to correct their previous judgement on my case in a way that was both right according to their own conditions and favorable for me. I am grateful and happy. Thank you!

I am very grateful to Gor and Boris who are working on my case and a very professional in doing so!

I am so grateful for the services Avant Advocaten provided. I especially want to thank you Gor and Boris being so helpful and available for all my questions during the process. I am an EU student doing my masters and working at the same time. I applied for supplementary grant and travel product in DUO, but I got rejected due to my nationality though I am an EU citizen. With the help of Avant Advocaten, I am very happy to say that we won our case against Dutch government. I am able get both supplementary grant and travel product now.I highly recommend their services, if you have going through the same that I experienced with DUO!

Via het huurteam ben ik met Avant Advocaten in contact gekomen in verband met een vervelend huurgeschil. Gor (en collega's) hebben een hele persoonlijke en integere aanpak en hebben mijn vriend en mij heel goed bijgestaan in deze zaak. Ze stralen rust uit, nemen de tijd om zaken te verhelderen/ toe te lichten en zijn overduidelijk expert in het huurrecht. Deze expertise heeft ons geholpen in het krijgen van rust en vertrouwen in de zaak met uiteindelijk ook nog eens een positief eindresultaat. Ik kan alleen maar heel dankbaar zijn en hen van harte aanbevelen.

Advocaten Folsche en Stalpers van Avant advocaten hebben mij uitstekend geholpen in een zaak waarbij de verhuurster een groot deel van de betaalde borg wilde inhouden. De heren hebben de zaak zeer vakkundig aangepakt. Hun communicatie en adviezen waren altijd helder, uitgebreid en toch ‘to the point’. Ik heb het daarnaast zeer gewaardeerd dat zij ook begrip toonden voor de emoties die bij een rechtszaak kunnen komen kijken en bij mij speelden. Ze waren geduldig en stonden mij heel goed bij in de kwestie. Op alle fronten ben ik zeer tevreden. De uitkomst van de procedure was bovendien buitengewoon goed!

I will be forever grateful to the lawyers of Avant Advocaten. As an international student in the Netherlands, after having lost my right to the student finance (DUO) during Covid, I thought I had no chance to recover financially from the last semester of my BA studies. I heard about Avant Advocaten from other friends who went through similar struggles and, after about 6 months, they brought my case to the court and won.I highly suggest anyone struggling with the legal system in the Netherlands to refer to them!

During the time of my internship, I applied for a travel product from DUO, as my transport costs were not covered, however as an international student, I got rejected from DUO. I heard from a friend that he had a similar problem and he recommended for me to get in touch with the Avant Advocaten. That was an amazing decision, they were absolutely professional and helpful regarding my DUO case. They explained everything throughout the whole procedure. I encourage every international student that experienced a similar problem with DUO, to reach out to Avant Advocaten. Even though the procedure takes time (up to a year) for the case to be brought into court, it is worth it, as there is someone to guide and help you. Today I received the great news that I have won my case and I am eligible to receive a compensation from DUO.I would most definitely recommend the services of Avant Advocaten. Great help.

I had the pleasure to be represented by Avant Advocaten, in particular Boris Stalpers for my case. He is very professional and explained everything I needed to know or the possibilities I had in a very clear way. He was always available for clarifications and to answer to questions. I had a very positive experience and I would like to recommend Avant Advocaten for their very professional and timely service.

I had a long fight against the dutch government (DUO). Non Dutch people, you have a right to your money without working more than 50 hours a month. I fought and after one year DUO gave up and I received my money for the complete year. Don't give up!

WOW. I don't even know where to start. Discovering Avant Advocaten was the best thing that ever happened in my life. My girlfriend and myself applied for DUO loan , school year was about to start and we had lots of problems on our minds. We had no idea that DUO would be the biggest one of them all.Thank God we saw Avant Advocaten post on Facebook ,otherwise we would fell in DUOs eternal trap. DUO is extremely unfriendly towards international students, they pressure you to sign "56 hour minimum" paper in which they unlawfully ask you to give up on your rights to Student Loan, Supplementary Grant and Travel product. Fortunately we visited Avants webpage, read most of it and after talking with one of their representatives we found out that we can just NOT SIGN the paper. Soon we found out that the loan ,together with grant and travel product ,was granted even without signing the "mandatory paper".Our newly found lawyer team was genuine and extremely helpful already. After that we dealt with DUOs rudeness and provocations just over 1 year. They tried to confuse us with various different tactics ,for example they would make a decision that we are gonna recieve Loan ,and a second later they would send another one saying we will not recieve anything. Nothing is simple with DUO. ,and their ultimate goal is just to confuse you. We didnt know the legal system and DUO was exploiting it. There was no way for us to get what we deserved without professional help. We sent all of our decisions to Avant and asked them how to proceed after each decision. They always explained everything thoroughly and in a simple manner ,so that we as young inexpirienced students could understand what needs to be done next . They did the hard work for us and we were basically downloading decisions and sending them to our trustworthy Avant lawyer team. Finally after more than one year we won. It took this long because like I mentioned earlier DUO is exploiting Dutch legal system. They are aware how things work ,and they are delaying every decision until the absolute last second. After that Avant needs to file an appeal ,and then DUO has another couple of months to react. Like I mentioned earlier this would all be impossible to handle without Avant. Important thing to mention is that Avant never charged us any fees. Dutch students (even us internationals) have right to one free lawyer that Netherlands covers. I know lots of students who just avoid DUO and believe its impossible to get the loan. They just don't believe that official Dutch institution (DUO) would try to scam students out of their loans. So they don't see a point in contacting Avant. When they finally realize Avant is neccessery in this situation ,it is already too late. To conclude I just want to mention that justice has been served and that the feeling is indescribeable. I cannot thank Avant Advocaten enough .Thank you and God bless you all

I definitely recommend Avant Advocaten. I had a dispute with my landlord because he gave me 2 months notice to move out via a WhatsApp text. As a student 2 months is not enough to find another place. I tried coming to an agreement with him to stay a few extra months until I have enough money and have found a new place. He made it very clear that he didn’t care whether I found another place or not. I was so in distress I decided to contact Avant Advocaten and that was the best decision I made. Ms.Parabhjot Singh handle my case, she was very professional, friendly, patient and time efficient. Ms.Singh has great communication skills both written and verbally. In less than 3 weeks Ms.Singh won my case and my landlord has given me the extra time I needed. Extremely satisfied with the work services!

Ik betaalde een veel te hoge huur en heb toen via Huurteam Utrecht een procedure aangespannen bij de Huurcommissie tegen mijn verhuurder. Deze won ik, waardoor de verhuurder mij de te veel betaalde huur terug moest storten. Toen hij dit niet deed, heb ik op aanraden van het Huurteam Avant Advocaten ingeschakeld.Zij hebben mij erg prettig geholpen en al het contact met de verhuurder van mij overgenomen. Ook keken ze naar mogelijkheden voor rechtsbijstand, zodat ik uiteindelijk maar een klein bedrag zelf hoefde te betalen en al het te veel betaalde geld van de verhuurder terug kreeg. Al met al heeft het me heel veel gedoe en stress gescheeld!

They offer clear, professional advice and have fluent English.I needed to deal with incorrect handling of my case by DUO. After I sent an email, Avant's attorney contacted me, explained the procedure and handled the case over to another attorney (Mr. Stalpers) who was responsible for my case till the end. Mr. Stalpers did a great job - he showed a lot of understanding and professionalism in how he handled the case and advised me on possible further actions. The outcome was successful and we managed to press DUO to correct their previous judgement on my case in a way that was both right according to their own conditions and favorable for me. I am grateful and happy. Thank you!

I had a good experience with Avant Advocaten. Their communication was clear and they guided me through the process of producing the necessary documents for my case against the Dutch government, which was successful. Special thanks to Parabhjot and Gor, who helped with documents, and represented me in court, respectively.

I am very grateful to Gor and Boris who are working on my case and a very professional in doing so! DUO has rejected my right for the student travel product, but they are defending my case with great expertise! They are knowledgeable, offer great consultation and are highly efficient in their processes! Especially for internationals it is great to be aware of your rights in the Netherlands.

I am so grateful for the services Avant Advocaten provided. I especially want to thank you Gor and Boris being so helpful and available for all my questions during the process. I am an EU student doing my masters and working at the same time. I applied for supplementary grant and travel product in DUO, but I got rejected due to my nationality though I am an EU citizen. With the help of Avant Advocaten, I am very happy to say that we won our case against Dutch government. I am able get both supplementary grant and travel product now.I highly recommend their services, if you have going through the same that I experienced with DUO!

Via het huurteam ben ik met Avant Advocaten in contact gekomen in verband met een vervelend huurgeschil. Gor (en collega's) hebben een hele persoonlijke en integere aanpak en hebben mijn vriend en mij heel goed bijgestaan in deze zaak. Ze stralen rust uit, nemen de tijd om zaken te verhelderen/ toe te lichten en zijn overduidelijk expert in het huurrecht. Deze expertise heeft ons geholpen in het krijgen van rust en vertrouwen in de zaak met uiteindelijk ook nog eens een positief eindresultaat. Ik kan alleen maar heel dankbaar zijn en hen van harte aanbevelen.

Advocaten Folsche en Stalpers van Avant advocaten hebben mij uitstekend geholpen in een zaak waarbij de verhuurster een groot deel van de betaalde borg wilde inhouden. De heren hebben de zaak zeer vakkundig aangepakt. Hun communicatie en adviezen waren altijd helder, uitgebreid en toch ‘to the point’. Ik heb het daarnaast zeer gewaardeerd dat zij ook begrip toonden voor de emoties die bij een rechtszaak kunnen komen kijken en bij mij speelden. Ze waren geduldig en stonden mij heel goed bij in de kwestie. Op alle fronten ben ik zeer tevreden. De uitkomst van de procedure was bovendien buitengewoon goed!

I will be forever grateful to the lawyers of Avant Advocaten. As an international student in the Netherlands, after having lost my right to the student finance (DUO) during Covid, I thought I had no chance to recover financially from the last semester of my BA studies. I heard about Avant Advocaten from other friends who went through similar struggles and, after about 6 months, they brought my case to the court and won.I highly suggest anyone struggling with the legal system in the Netherlands to refer to them!

So grateful to Avant Advocaten and Patrick specifically for representing and assisting us in our case against our former landlord who refused to pay back our deposit. Avant really helped us out and we felt incredibly supported and heard. Great service.

During the time of my internship, I applied for a travel product from DUO, as my transport costs were not covered, however as an international student, I got rejected from DUO. I heard from a friend that he had a similar problem and he recommended for me to get in touch with the Avant Advocaten. That was an amazing decision, they were absolutely professional and helpful regarding my DUO case. They explained everything throughout the whole procedure. I encourage every international student that experienced a similar problem with DUO, to reach out to Avant Advocaten. Even though the procedure takes time (up to a year) for the case to be brought into court, it is worth it, as there is someone to guide and help you. Today I received the great news that I have won my case and I am eligible to receive a compensation from DUO.I would most definitely recommend the services of Avant Advocaten. Great help.

I had the pleasure to be represented by Avant Advocaten, in particular Boris Stalpers for my case. He is very professional and explained everything I needed to know or the possibilities I had in a very clear way. He was always available for clarifications and to answer to questions. I had a very positive experience and I would like to recommend Avant Advocaten for their very professional and timely service.

I had a long fight against the dutch government (DUO). Non Dutch people, you have a right to your money without working more than 50 hours a month. I fought and after one year DUO gave up and I received my money for the complete year. Don't give up!

WOW. I don't even know where to start. Discovering Avant Advocaten was the best thing that ever happened in my life. My girlfriend and myself applied for DUO loan , school year was about to start and we had lots of problems on our minds. We had no idea that DUO would be the biggest one of them all.Thank God we saw Avant Advocaten post on Facebook ,otherwise we would fell in DUOs eternal trap. DUO is extremely unfriendly towards international students, they pressure you to sign "56 hour minimum" paper in which they unlawfully ask you to give up on your rights to Student Loan, Supplementary Grant and Travel product. Fortunately we visited Avants webpage, read most of it and after talking with one of their representatives we found out that we can just NOT SIGN the paper. Soon we found out that the loan ,together with grant and travel product ,was granted even without signing the "mandatory paper".Our newly found lawyer team was genuine and extremely helpful already. After that we dealt with DUOs rudeness and provocations just over 1 year. They tried to confuse us with various different tactics ,for example they would make a decision that we are gonna recieve Loan ,and a second later they would send another one saying we will not recieve anything. Nothing is simple with DUO. ,and their ultimate goal is just to confuse you. We didnt know the legal system and DUO was exploiting it. There was no way for us to get what we deserved without professional help. We sent all of our decisions to Avant and asked them how to proceed after each decision. They always explained everything thoroughly and in a simple manner ,so that we as young inexpirienced students could understand what needs to be done next . They did the hard work for us and we were basically downloading decisions and sending them to our trustworthy Avant lawyer team. Finally after more than one year we won. It took this long because like I mentioned earlier DUO is exploiting Dutch legal system. They are aware how things work ,and they are delaying every decision until the absolute last second. After that Avant needs to file an appeal ,and then DUO has another couple of months to react. Like I mentioned earlier this would all be impossible to handle without Avant. Important thing to mention is that Avant never charged us any fees. Dutch students (even us internationals) have right to one free lawyer that Netherlands covers. I know lots of students who just avoid DUO and believe its impossible to get the loan. They just don't believe that official Dutch institution (DUO) would try to scam students out of their loans. So they don't see a point in contacting Avant. When they finally realize Avant is neccessery in this situation ,it is already too late. To conclude I just want to mention that justice has been served and that the feeling is indescribeable. I cannot thank Avant Advocaten enough .Thank you and God bless you all

I definitely recommend Avant Advocaten. I had a dispute with my landlord because he gave me 2 months notice to move out via a WhatsApp text. As a student 2 months is not enough to find another place. I tried coming to an agreement with him to stay a few extra months until I have enough money and have found a new place. He made it very clear that he didn’t care whether I found another place or not. I was so in distress I decided to contact Avant Advocaten and that was the best decision I made. Ms.Parabhjot Singh handle my case, she was very professional, friendly, patient and time efficient. Ms.Singh has great communication skills both written and verbally. In less than 3 weeks Ms.Singh won my case and my landlord has given me the extra time I needed. Extremely satisfied with the work services!

Ik betaalde een veel te hoge huur en heb toen via Huurteam Utrecht een procedure aangespannen bij de Huurcommissie tegen mijn verhuurder. Deze won ik, waardoor de verhuurder mij de te veel betaalde huur terug moest storten. Toen hij dit niet deed, heb ik op aanraden van het Huurteam Avant Advocaten ingeschakeld.Zij hebben mij erg prettig geholpen en al het contact met de verhuurder van mij overgenomen. Ook keken ze naar mogelijkheden voor rechtsbijstand, zodat ik uiteindelijk maar een klein bedrag zelf hoefde te betalen en al het te veel betaalde geld van de verhuurder terug kreeg. Al met al heeft het me heel veel gedoe en stress gescheeld!
