Home > Litigation
We are the undisputed market leader in litigation in the Netherlands, both in the national and international litigation arenas, as well as for large corporates headquartered in the Netherlands. Having consistently maintained a strong focus on dispute and risk management over the years, our firm’s litigation practice remains unrivalled in terms of breadth, scope, size and number of high profile cases, as well as in the blue chip nature of our litigation client base.
While serving the vast majority of the largest 100 companies headquartered in the Netherlands, we developed an integral vision on managing legal exposure. By systematically identifying legal and compliance risks and developing practical measures to reduce them, we assist legal departments in spending their budgets effectively. Through early case assessments we assist our clients in collecting and conserving evidence and choosing the most efficient way to deal with a particular dispute or series of disputes.
And we offer our clients the opportunity to handle our cases based on alternative fee arrangements such as fixed fees per phase or success fees.
