Beware of excessive attendance requirements for association statute amendments; what now?
An association's articles of association contain the rules that members must adhere to. The notary records the articles of association upon the association's incorporation and can later amend them by notarial deed. Amending the articles of association after incorporation may be desirable to steer an association in a different direction. In some cases, for example, when the association is part of an umbrella organization, the association may be required to amend the articles of association. This amendment must also take place before a specific date. A common problem in this situation is that membership attendance is too low, making it impossible to amend the articles of association.

Avoid financial surprises when living together unmarried
Buying a house together is exciting, but without proper agreements, it's also risky. What if one of you puts down more than the other? Many couples live together without a cohabitation agreement and don't consider the financial implications. Clear agreements provide peace of mind and prevent (financial) uncertainty if the relationship changes.

Dat past bij het innovatieve type notariskantoor waar wij voor staan. En we willen op een transparante en klantgerichte manier hoogwaardige diensten leveren.

MAES notarissen: Net even anders
A will doesn't expire, but... when did you last have your MOT?
Many people who have ever been to a notary (usually for the purchase of a house) draw up a will. Some wills are decades old. Fortunately, wills don't expire; what you've established remains valid until you change it. However, your circumstances often change! So, what was once sound may no longer be suitable due to the passage of time. If you have an old will (especially one from before 2003), it's important to have a notary check whether the provisions still apply to your current situation. Below are some reasons why you might want/need to change your will!

Have you inherited a house or land? Have the property registered in your name at the notary!
The Land Registry's function is to keep track of the ownership of a home or other property. This becomes more difficult when owners pass away. While it's possible to notify the Land Registry of the heirs, this requires the active involvement of the person handling the estate. This requires a certificate of inheritance, which must be drawn up by a notary. This document can then be registered with the Land Registry to ensure clarity about the new beneficiaries. Below, you'll find out why it's important to arrange this properly.
Protect your privacy when setting up a BV
As a business owner, you are required to publish certain information in the Chamber of Commerce (KvK) Trade Register. While it's helpful to be able to see this information when doing business, you should be mindful of protecting your privacy. Consider the situation where your visiting address or company name can be directly traced back to you. In the worst-case scenario, malicious actors could contact business owners at their home addresses. Fortunately, there are solutions to protect sensitive data.
