Stephan Roelofs helped me transition from this legal position to a stay with a freelance visa. He made the process, under the Points-based Visa Program for freelancers and entrepreneurs, simple and straight forward. His expertise made a very stressful situation, feel calm and under control. He was always friendly and concise and persisted enthusiastically, even when my first application was denied. I have been working successfully as a freelancer since, thanks to Stephan.

Once I was put in touch with Susanne Mooij, the application process became clear and achievable. Susanne managed the process superbly, continuously keeping me in the loop, while smoothing out any issues that arose along the way. At the time of my application being a “Creative” applicant was problematic. Through Susanne and her team’s efforts, The Netherlands is now more open to the positive impact we, the creative class of immigrants, has to offer to Dutch society.

This decision and the legal process is an important step in your personal journey. It can be very stressful, if you don't have the right support. Thanks to Stephan Roelofs, my immigration process, under the Points-based Visa Program for freelancers and entrepreneurs, went very smoothly. I felt guided and supported the entire time and I received a solid approval of my application.

His experience was very assuring throughout the process, as he explained the requirements for the Points System, for the admission of freelancers and entrepreneurs. He was also able to help with referrals, to other service providers, to complete the application. As a Canadian small business owner, I can highly recommend Stephan to assist with questions about immigrating to The Netherlands.

After receiving a masters degree in Design from the Design Academy in Eindhoven, I decided to establish my own practice in The Netherlands. Referred by a fellow alumni who had a successful experience with Adam & Wolf, I met with Susanne. Her judgement of the case was accurate. During the very first meeting, she was convinced that we would have a positive result. Without having any idea of what I was looking for at the time, Susanne provided me with a clear plan of action to gain residence in my new country. She tailored her advice to my needs, allowing me to stay on top of an extremely busy daily schedule. This removed the pressure of the complex situation and allowed me to focus on my work.

He took a hands-on role in the actual submission, providing a number of useful insights to assure a successful application. I wouldn't have succeeded without him. He is known amongst the international freelancing community in Amsterdam. He was recommended to me by others who had worked with him. I can happily pass on the same recommendation.

He guided me through my self-employed immigration case, from listing the needed documents to checking on the status of the application, and in the end, sending me the happy news. Stephan was very realistic in describing the scenario and defining the requirements to acquire a Dutch visa under the Points-based Visa Program for freelancers and entrepreneurs. I knew his success rate was high, and he had great credentials, so I was glad when he took my case. I already felt like things would go right, and they did. Therefore, since it is now time to renew my visa, I have no doubts about returning to Stephan again for help. I highly recommend him, especially for self-employed creatives in The Netherlands.

He has an incredible wealth of knowledge when it comes to the ever-changing immigration laws of Holland. Not only that, his personal care and ability to sift through the relevant facts, to give you the straight story, make his services irreplaceable. Whether you decide to take on the immigration challenge yourself or with assistance, I always advise people to at least schedule one consultation with Stephan. It can't hurt and it will usually leave you much more enlightened as to the unique challenges you may encounter when immigrating. Ultimately, it's about having peace of mind. And Stephan Roelofs specializes in helping you achieve it.

I had this impression from our very first meeting. He explained everything clearly and fully informed me of the procedures. I decided in that meeting to go through the application process with Stephan, even though it was a difficult case. In the end, we received positive advice from both the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and IND. I highly recommend Stephan for any case that is related to immigration. If he believes your case can be successful, it will surely be.

It was a pleasure to find a lawyer who had extensive experience in helping creative people and small entrepreneurs. A few years later, he helped me and my partner through a partnership residency process. And finally, he guided me through my Dutch citizenship application procedures. I felt confident through each one of those difficult, and at times confusing cases, thanks to Stephan’s detailed explanations and advice.
