Landlord claims huge amounts for utilities and services?
Many expats face unfair claims from landlords for additional utility or service costs, sometimes amounting to thousands of euros. If you’ve received such a claim, it’s crucial to get legal support quickly. Without it, we often see people losing these disputes.

Safeguard your position!
When facing discussions about utilities and service costs, it’s normal to feel somewhat at a loss. These discussions can become (very) technical, and we have helped hundreds of expats fight unreasonable arguments like:
- “You have to pay this, because it’s your part of the costs for the past three years”
- “No, there is no individual meter, so you simply have to pay your part”
- “There are no invoices, but based on the contract you must pay this, or we will send a collection agancy”
- And the list goes on, and on, and on…
We understand how infuriating it can be. We see a lot of landlords just count on the fact that you don’t know what you’re doing and that you won’t get legal help. That way, they try to scare you into agreeing to pay high amounts, while they should be liable for these costs (or be able to really substantiate them.
That’s why we provide comprehensive legal support to expats who find themselves in these situations. We’ll work together with you in fighting unreasonable (or unsubstantiated) claims, and make sure your landlord takes you seriously. If necessary, we’ll also take the necessary legal action (through bailiff and/or court) to get you the solution you deserve.

We’re here to help! Just fill out the contact form below and explain your situation. We’ll get back to you shortly with our thoughts and next steps.
02. Legal advice
Once we have a better understanding of your case, we’ll give you our honest opinion on what you can do next.
03. Formal letter
It looks like you are in the right here. We’ll draft a formal letter and send it to your landlord or real estate agent. In this letter, we formally dispute their claims and use reasonable arguments to do so. We’ll also include that communications will go through us from now on (minimizing any stress on your end). This usually gets their attention and starts discussions about a solution. We’ll also advise you about possible negotiations to resolve the issue without the need of court.
04. Already wrapping up
In most cases, things get sorted pretty quickly. The majority of our cases are resolved in a matter of weeks, or even days. Only in some cases (where a landlord refuses to listen) we’ll end up in court. Don’t worry though, we have your back and most of our clients believe court was actually fun once they step out of the courtroom again (since it’s the landlord that will be doing the sweating).

Don’t let your landlord fool you around
Cases about utilities and services can become complex and technical. We have to protect against unlawful claims, but be very careful on what we say and how we say it. We have seen many cases where people contacted us too late, and already (unknowingly) hurt their cases badly. Don’t let that happen to you.
Limited availability
Due to the high demand for our services, we can only take a limited number of new cases. If you’re facing a rental dispute, don’t wait – contact us today to ensure your rights are protected and you get the solution you deserve.
