EXPERTISE
Litigation Law & Alternative Dispute Resolution
Soliana Bonapart & Aardenburg has a wide-ranging and deeply-rooted litigation practice. We practice practically all disciplines of procedural law on all the islands in the Dutch Caribbean. We assist clients in civil court cases, in administrative procedures, cases involving public servants, administrative appeals filed with government agencies (including, for example, the Social Insurance Bank (SVB) and the Bureau of Telecommunications and Post), disputes brought before the medical disciplinary board and in (international) arbitration and mediation cases.
We also provide support for the execution, including (exequatur) procedures for the enforcement of a foreign judgment, and for public or private auctions by drafting warrantees or by counseling regarding the possibilities for recovery.
