A special congratulations to:

  • Michael Schouten for moving to Band 5 in Corporate/M&A from his previous ranking as "Up and Coming"
  • Gaby Smeenk for her ranking as "Up and Coming" from previously not being ranked.
  • Gertjan Kuipers for his new Band 1 ranking in Intellectual Property: Patent, moving up from Band 2 last year.

After a testing year, the acknowledgement that these rankings carry, speaks to the collective strength, expertise and excellence of the firm as a whole.
