In connection with a divorce I came in contact with Mrs. Boomsma. She was recommended to me by House of Finance. The recommendation was entirely justified. In telephone conversations I was taken into the difficult legal world that you suddenly end up in. The human dimension was not forgotten. The “your case is her cause” was certainly recognizable here. Mrs. Boomsma took the time to inform and advise me about the possible steps I could take and how she could assist me in this. When I finally did not use her services because it could be resolved otherwise, she did not charge for the time that we discussed. I thought that was a very nice gesture.

Laura Boomsma-Shriber and I have worked together closely for almost 3 years concerning a painful divorce, including small children.

Laura has great memory, expertise and is very intelligent. Besides that she is also very sincere. She has good analytic skills, explains you your possibilities and let’s you decide on how you want to handle things.

She is capable to always take the children into account, even during a difficult divorce.

Laura has a very kind and skilled assistant, called Hester. Both Laura and Hester were always available, called back when necessary and cared for proper feedback. At last, Laura has a great network providing her financial and retirement specialists.

We ended my case successfully and I can highly recommend her.

Laura hates to prosecute so do not show up with nonsense of bullying your ex. But if it’s necessary, she will fight like a lion.

A big selling point of Laura is that she is very smart, she writes subtle and sharp, without getting tacky. She gives you a wake up call when you’re being naïve or stupid.

Unfortunately, prosecuting can take quite a long time. Things you do or write can have a big impact, even years later. Laura is a couch in this process so she makes sure you do and document the right things and she prevents you from acting emotionally. Never lose the fact that you are a good father, how small your roll may be, out of sight. There is room for more. Believe it, do it and don’t give up! Your child needs you.

Laura helped me to keep my child in the Netherlands, get good agreements regarding healthcare (at a very young age) which resulted in co-parenting during the last hearing. Fact is, Laura is a very good mother herself so she helps you not letting the reality slip out of sight. Tips and tricks how to arrange things at school, day care and create a network. That kind of stuff. What roll can you keep? How do you stay relevant for your child?

In court she takes includes formulations from the child itself, so all the present paralegals and judges receive a accurate image of the situation, seen from the child’s point of view. Polite, involved and strategic.

So, if it is needed, she will do everything in her power. Legal opinions, small-claims, Spanish paralegals, official translation, travelling agreements, police, Child Protective Services, doctors, you name it. If it’s possible always without prosecuting.

Laura grew up with a father who was a psychiatrist. This contributes, in my opinion, to her ability to get into the minds of the opposite party. And if you are not okay, she won’t hesitate to tell you. You can better have her on your side, because if she is against you that will be an enormous problem.

Laura is supported by a fantastic office manager; Hester. Together they form a warm and loving team, full of passion for you case.

I can highly recommend Laura. She is a professional with a big amount of knowledge, creativity and a big heart for both her job and the client. I have always ben informed in detail about the possibilities by her, which gave me peace in difficult times. My appreciation goes to Hester as well, who was perfectly aware of my situation and who was always there to answer my questions.

Laura is a very positive, proactive and honest attorney but most of al human. She fights for you and is always present with good arguments and knowledge. This is necessary in situation where it may look like everything is taken from you and you’re emotionally not able to make the right decisions for you and your children. Laura has worked out everything in detail. I could not have wished for a better paralegal. Did I already mention her great sense of humour? Also very important at sometimes!

I have been a big fan of Laura since day one, both as an attorney as well as a human being. She has expertise and gets involve. This is the kind of attorney you want by your side. For me it is very clear, I don’t need any other paralegal anymore.

My experience with Ms Laura Boomsma-Shriber has ben pleasant from the start. She is very involved, has a big sense of empathy and most important of al she has a lot of knowledge and experience. She know how to cut to the chase, which was not easy regarding the emotional burden of a complicated divorce. She is also very resourceful and quickly understands what is going on. In my case she consulted her network, which gave her a lot of accurate and useful information. Laura has definitely gone the extra mile for me.

You always think it will never happen to you; a divorce. But if it does happen, you need someone who will stand up fearlessly for your position and (more important) the children’s stakes no matter what. In a difficult and painful process, Laura was able to fight back strictly and formally, with a lot of legal knowledge and creativity, always trying to respect and connect with the opposite party. To me as a client she was very strict when I needed it the most, but she also cared for my emotional burden of this process, which resulted in us really acting as partners.

Within one year after my divorce was settled, I received a request from my ex husband to lower the alimony.

This had to be defenced by an attorney. After some searching, I crossed paths with Laura Boomsma and I have never had any regrets about this. I got to know Laura as someone who goes straight after her goal (no-nonsense). She is committed and is perfectly available.

Eventually mediation was chosen for my case and with Laura’s feedback we got to an acceptable solution.

Mr. Boomsma heeft mij heel pragmatisch en consciëntieus bijgestaan.

Already during our intake meeting it became clear to me that Ms Boomsma would be the right person to help me with my case.

Straightforward, resolute!

From the beginning on it was clear what was expected from me.

During the procedure it was shown that Ms Boomsma works very precisely, she includes all the details. Besides that, costs and benefits are always included.

I worked together with Laure for almost a year and I am very positive about this experience.

Laura has always been open and honest to me. She is very direct, so you what you are up to. She always uses good arguments, which clearly explain her advises. This has helped me a lot and she got me the maximal result.

I can highly recommend joining hands with Laura!
