What Merkx Vugts & Vlemmix Notarissen does

Merkx Vugts & Vlemmix Notarissen (operating as "MVV notarissen") is a Dutch notary partnership founded in 1968 and headquartered in the Langstraat region of North Brabant, Netherlands. The firm operates four physical offices in Heusden, Waalwijk, Sprang-Capelle, and Dongen, and serves clients across the region from 's-Hertogenbosch through Gorinchem to Tilburg, with stated national reach. The firm positions itself as the largest notary office between Tilburg and 's-Hertogenbosch. As of the most recent disclosed information, the firm employs approximately 45 professionals, including three notarissen (Rob Vlemmix, Janet Vlemmix-Elting, and Marien van der Klooster), supported by toegevoegd-notarissen, kandidaat-notarissen, registerklerken, and other notarieel medewerkers. The firm is privately owned by its professional partners, with no PE/VC backing or public listing. Ownership includes members of both the Merkx and Vlemmix families per professional staff listings.

MVV notarissen provides a full-service Dutch notarial practice organized around three core service lines: Registergoederen (real estate transactions covering existing buildings, newbuild, apartments, commercial and investment properties, and ships), Rechtspersonen (corporate law including B.V. formation, statutory amendments, business transfers, and legal-entity conversions), and Familie (family law including marriage conditions, wills, cohabitation agreements, living wills, and estate administration). It also publishes advisory content on adjacent matters such as digital estate, organ donation, family loans, and family business succession. Service delivery is conducted in person at the four offices during standard business hours and by appointment outside hours.

The firm's business model is transaction-fee based: clients engage the firm per matter, and rates are described as competitive yet sharp ("goede doch scherpe tarieven"). Go-to-market is local/regional and field-based, anchored by physical office presence, a localized SEO footprint, blog content, and client review generation via Trustoo and Google. The firm is a member of the Notarieel Samenwerkingsverband Rondom de Langstraat, a regional notary collaboration providing mutual referrals and continuing professional education. Core technology is limited to standard office and legal software; no proprietary technology, AI features, APIs, or app products are present. The most recent strategic event is the January 2024 acquisition of Notariskantoor Dongen, which extended the firm to four locations.
