Overview
Not every legal matter fits within a single practice area. Some of the most important services we provide are cross-disciplinary by nature — requiring knowledge of international law, procedural law, and administrative requirements all at once.
At Law & More, we assist clients with legal matters that do not fit neatly into one category: from obtaining official documents and apostilles to enforcing foreign court judgments in the Netherlands, or providing a formal legal opinion for use abroad. These services are particularly relevant for international clients, expats, and businesses operating across borders.

Important terminology explained in plain language
Exequatur
A court order by which a Dutch court declares a foreign judgment enforceable in the Netherlands. Required when a creditor or party wishes to enforce a judgment obtained abroad through Dutch legal channels.
Apostille
An official certificate issued under the Hague Convention that authenticates the origin of a public document — such as a birth certificate, court decision, or notarial deed — for use in another signatory country.
Legal Opinion
A formal written statement by a qualified lawyer setting out the law applicable to a specific situation. Often required by foreign banks, investors, or counterparties as part of a transaction or regulatory process.
Legalisation
The process of authenticating a document for use in a foreign country that is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention. Typically involves certification by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the relevant foreign embassy.
