What Eldermans|Geerts does

Eldermans|Geerts (legal entity: E & G Advocaten B.V., KvK 30152165) is a Dutch boutique law firm founded in 1986 and headquartered at Driebergseweg 16C, Zeist, Netherlands, with 18 employees. The firm operates exclusively in Dutch healthcare law (gezondheidsrecht), providing advisory and representation services across labor law, privacy (AVG), Wtza licensing, corporate law, competition law, governance, real estate in healthcare, quality legislation (WGBO, Wet BIG, Wkkgz), and disciplinary and complaints procedures. Its client base is segmented into three verticals: healthcare institutions (nursing and care homes, GGZ, youth care, district nursing, primary diagnostic centers, medical specialist care); free healthcare professionals (pharmacists, dentists, physiotherapists, GPs, psychologists, veterinarians); and branch and professional associations, where the firm acts as legal representative.

The firm's core offering is relationship-driven, hourly-billed advisory work delivered by sector-specialist attorneys registered with the Dutch Bar Association in gezondheidsrecht, ondernemingsrecht, and arbeidsrecht. Pricing follows annual January 1 hourly rate reviews tied to attorney seniority, with periodic work-in-progress billing for longer engagements and advance payments (voorschot) as required. Complementary revenue comes from De Zorgacademy, an NRTO-certified educational platform offering a 20-module e-learning program ('Recht in de Zorg') at €2,495, individual modules at €195, a classroom course, and free online kennisseminars — distributed via dezorgacademy.nl and the firm's own channels. The go-to-market motion is enterprise field sales combined with content marketing (knowledge bank, monthly newsletter, podcast, YouTube, LinkedIn) and event-driven acquisition through free seminars. No proprietary technology platform is referenced; the firm uses general digital tools and consumer-grade AI document tooling referenced in its general terms.

The firm is privately held with no disclosed parent, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no geographic expansion beyond the Netherlands. It is controlled by its partner-attorneys, with Karik van Berloo as the named Advocaat-Partner who received the 2012 'Meest veelbelovende patroon' honor from Advocatie.
