Seizure of a house, the land register closes soon, quickly register that seizure.

In 1983 I completed my training at Schoevers as an executive secretary. After this I started working as an executive secretary at a bailiff’s office in Amsterdam. Almost 20 years later I started looking further and finally ended up at Groot en Evers in 2018. This immediately felt good. I work with 4 other colleagues in the legal department and am the team leader of this unit. I do this work with great pleasure.

After completing my law degree at Tilburg University, I started working as a lawyer in the bailiff industry. Not much later I started training as a bailiff. As of 2014, in addition to legal work, I also perform official acts. Within the Groot & Evers team I enjoy working on challenging assignments. My approach is characterised by working in a controlled and accurate manner and applying the law practically and pragmatically where ever possible.

In 2008 I was appointed as an added bailiff. I’ve always realized that I don’t have an everyday job.

At one point I got the chance to work for Bas Evers. From the Amsterdam office I am on the road for clients almost every day.

No day is the same. I don’t know what I’m going to do in the afternoon in the morning.

One time I drive a route. The other time I am in the country at a foreclosure auction or I seize evidence.

After studying at the Dutch Police Academy in Apeldoorn, I started my working life as a young inspector in the Amsterdam police force in various positions. There I learned a lot about human behavior for about 12 years.

From my position as Assistant Public Prosecutor, I regularly had to provide assistance to bailiffs during seizures, evictions, etc.

That is where my interest in the profession and entrepreneurship was awakened. After studying at Utrecht University, I gained experience as a candidate bailiff at a number of offices with the aim of opening my own office.

In 2007 I founded Oude Elferink Judicial Officers especially for the legal profession. So no impersonal collection agency, but legal services of the highest level.

In 2019, Bas Evers and I decided to join forces and expertise and to continue working together under the name Groot & Evers Bailiffs.

I prefer to do bigger, complicated cases. As an office, we are often trendsetters in the legal field. And can now be proud of our extensive expertise in the field of seizure and execution law. I find the legal aspects of the seizure of evidence particularly interesting.

I can’t sit still outside of work. I am therefore active in equestrian sports: especially training for and riding cross-country.

In 1998 I started as a trainee in a bailiff’s office and soon I was infected with the “bailiff virus”. After my internship I did everything that was possible within a bailiff’s office, CJIB matters, role administration, loose matters and so on. In 2004 I completed my training as a (additional) judicial officer and since then I have been able to experience all facets of the job.

I like the hectic pace of the profession, one minute you’re at the door with a summons, the next you’re in the cockpit of a Boeing 747 to seize the kerosene. And it is precisely this diversity that makes the profession so great.

At Groot en Evers things are always good with the hectic and the diversity and we are of course always there for you.

Since 2018 I have been working as an added bailiff at the office of Groot & Evers in Rotterdam. For part of my work I can be found in the office to prepare the legal files. For the rest of the time I am on the road to perform my official task as a bailiff. No day is the same. That’s what makes the job so much fun.

During the graduate internship, I came into contact with the bailiff industry and I was soon warned: once you get infected with the ‘bailiff virus’, it won’t let you go. This also ensured that I followed the training to become a bailiff.

Now almost 15 years later, the virus still has me. At Groot & Evers I enjoy working in the civil service department and I am a point of contact for lawyers from all over the Netherlands. I see it as a fun challenge every day to serve our customers in the right way!

From summer job to more than 10 years of experience at Groot & Evers. In this time I have already seen a lot of exploits and I therefore have a lot of practical experience in the entire execution field. In addition, I was able to develop into the foreign service/execution expert of our firm. I therefore like to advise and look along with clients in the international aspects of the bailiff profession. This can be in mass damages claims (WAMCA), but also cartel cases or an ordinary trade dispute. Over the years I have already encountered a lot of exploits and I have learned where the practical hurdles and problems are.

I am therefore always available for a consultation. The nice thing about our customer group is that they always force you to stay sharp. Whether this is in the practical implementation or a new interpretation of a legal article. I always like to think along about what is possible and whether we can take the extra step.

I have been working in the bailiff sector since mid-1993 and have performed almost all activities since then. From cleaning up files, role observations and drawing up all types of writs. Since 2007 I have been working as an added bailiff and I carry out all the usual activities.

From judicial evictions with police assistance to the seizure of securties and household effects. Most of the time I work outside the office to perform official duties. You can say that I am a passionate (street) bailiff in heart and soul.

As a third generation bailiff, I have more than 40 years of experience in the bailiff industry, including holiday work. Raised and educated in Utrecht.

I have been officially authorized since 1990 and I am still on the road every day with various official assignments, usually in the car, sometimes on a bicycle, usually over land, but sometimes also on the water.

Your driving and sometimes sailing bailiff.

During my course in Economic, Legal Service and Public Administration I did an internship at a judicial officer’s firm.This was my first acquaintance and I stayed ever since in the business.

In the meanwhile I have been working for more than 24 years, of which a number of years at Groot & Evers. And I have been doing this with great pleasure.

In the summer of 1981 I started at a judicial officer’s firm in Haarlem and have ever since dealt with all aspects of the job. As the youngest employee I started with compiling new files and drawing up all writs and reports.

However, I wanted more. For example, I started with a study to become a Judicial Officer in 2002 and after completing this study in 2006 I also started to perform judicial services. At Groot & Evers I verify all the documents and deeds that are received. Because of my experience over many years I have become the guru for my colleagues.

As the youngest employee in 1992 I started my career at a judicial officer’s firm in Rotterdam. What is often the case, I have dealt with all disciplines of the profession of Judicial Officer. Since my training I have always enjoyed focusing myself on the Judicial services.

I’m a true person from Rotterdam and a Judicial Officer in heart and soul. I am the contact for lawyers at the Rotterdam branch of Groot & Evers and I am responsible that we work hard for our clients. From practical questions to complex projects. Always with a high-quality service!

I have worked for almost 25 years as a Judicial Officer. I started with archiving files and serving coffee. In actual fact I have held all positions that are conceivable at a judicial officer’s firm.

I study much (recent) case law and have a great interest in third-party arrests and seizure of evidence. I therefore am a legal guru and sparring partner for many lawyers and fellow Judicial Officers.

Since 2005 I have been a judicial officer and in the meanwhile I have become the owner of Groot & Evers Gerechtsdeurwaarders. But don’t get me wrong: there is nothing I love more than ‘going outside’, because I am and always will be a judicial officer in heart and soul.

My name is Michelle and I have worked in the legal industry my entire career, with a brief foray into strategic consultancy.

At Groot & Evers I once started as a case handler. As a result, I know the interests of the client, debtor and office and can weigh them up properly. Which is very useful in my position as Managing Director and MT member, which I have held for many years.

In addition, I have a specialisation in labor mediation and I represent our sector in the board of bailiff interests. I think this is important because every sector benefits from various perspectives and competencies.

I am positive, pragmatic, assertive and value working with open, sincere and positive people.

Can I help you or do you want to know more about our services? Then I would like to get in touch with you.
