Vereniging De Scheidingsplanner

What Vereniging De Scheidingsplanner does

Vereniging De Scheidingsplanner is a Dutch membership association (vereniging) founded in 2006 and headquartered in Rotterdam, operating a national network of independent Scheidingsplanners who deliver integrated divorce mediation, unilateral divorce representation, and financial-fiscal-legal advisory services across the Netherlands. Each member advisor is required to have a minimum of 15 years of financial advisory experience and to hold sector certifications such as FFP, RFEA, CFP®, or MFP. The network serves individuals and couples going through divorce, registered-partnership dissolution, or cohabitation termination, including specialised tracks for entrepreneurs/business owners and older clients.

The association's core product is the Scheidingsplan®, a proprietary, registered, structured methodology and document that consolidates all financial, fiscal, and personal dimensions of a divorce (parenting plan, alimony, property division, mortgage feasibility, pension, tax, business, and practical matters) into the basis for the legal settlement. Service delivery is direct-to-consumer and consultative: a free 30-minute introductory meeting is followed by mediation or unilateral representation, with adjacent capabilities (independent mortgage scan, alimony recalculation, parenting-plan modification, cohabitation dissolution) provided as add-ons. The network coordinates a referral ecosystem with family law attorneys (e.g., Parkzicht Advocaten, Avis & Van Riel Advocaten), mortgage advisers (KR Financieel Advies, Van Ochten Hypotheekadvies, Bèta Financiële Diensten), and fiscal specialists.

The business model is professional-services fee-for-service, with pricing varying by office between hourly rates and fixed/package prices, plus centrally delivered content marketing (100+ article blog, YouTube, podcasts, downloadable Scheidingsboekje lead magnet, ActiveCampaign email automation) that drives organic SEO demand. The association states 1,560 cases handled in the past year, a 97% successful completion rate, and an 8.7 customer rating. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; no funding rounds, M&A activity, or parent-company ownership have been identified, and the entity is private and founder/member-controlled.

Revenue model

1. Financial & Fiscal Advisory Services: Core revenue stream from providing financial and fiscal divorce advisory services. Scheidingsplanners charge clients for advice on asset division, maintenance calculations, pension distribution, mortgage feasibility, and tax optimisation. Fees are charged on an hourly rate basis or as a fixed/package price depending on the complexity and the specific office. An intake/introductory meeting of 30 minutes is offered free of charge.
2. Mediation Services: Revenue from mediating joint divorce proceedings, guiding both partners through structured negotiation to reach durable agreements. Mediation is priced using package rates (mediation on the basis of pakketprijzen) and always includes financial and fiscal advice components. This is the preferred pathway and primary revenue driver.
3. Unilateral Divorce (Eenzijdig Scheiden) Services: Revenue from representing one party in a divorce where joint mediation is not possible. Fees bundle financial advisory with legal coordination with lawyers, charged at an hourly rate or fixed price. The organisation collaborates with external family law attorneys (such as Parkzicht Advocaten) for court filing.
4. Mortgage Advisory & Housing Advisory: Revenue from independent mortgage advisory services offered in connection with divorce, including the 'onafhankelijke hypotheekscan' to assess housing feasibility post-divorce. The organisation works with partner mortgage advisers (e.g., KR Financieel Advies, Van Ochten Hypotheekadvies, Bèta Financiële Diensten) who generate fees for mortgage arrangement.
5. Post-Divorce Services (Alimony Recalculation, Parenting Plan Amendments): Ongoing services after divorce is finalised, including alimony recalculation ('alimentatie herberekenen') and modification of parenting plans. These generate repeat, smaller-scale professional services revenue.
