Industry & Energy Dutch Lawyers
Today’s industrial sector is faced with many challenges, such as fluctuating prices for raw materials, supply chain issues, violation of intellectual property rights and technological developments. In addition, the environment, planning incorporation in the environment and sustainability also play an important role in the industry. Faced with all these challenges, it is important to have a sparring partner who is familiar with the issues in your sector and who will make life easier for you to the greatest possible extent.
Advice and litigation
Our lawyers fulfil that role. You will benefit from our knowledge of the legislation that applies to your sector. Examples are permit-granting within the framework of the Wet Milieubeheer (Environmental Management Act), for instance, and the enforcement thereof. You can of course also contact us for advice about competition issues, commercial collaboration contracts such as distribution agreements, and for mergers, takeovers and joint ventures. We are active for businesses that operate in the metal industry, the machine-building industry, the petro-chemical industry and the food industry.
