Conflicts
A conflict within or around your business costs time, energy and often money. For example, a customer who does not pay, a supplier who fails to honour agreements, an employee with whom cooperation is difficult or a shareholder with a different view of the company’s direction. In that situation, you want to know quickly where you stand and which steps are sensible.
In practice, a conflict often starts small. An agreement is interpreted differently, payments are not made or conversations no longer lead anywhere. That is precisely when it is important not to wait too long. The sooner your legal position is clear, the better you can stay in control and prevent unnecessary damage.
Our lawyers help entrepreneurs with business conflicts and disputes arising from day-to-day operations. For example, disputes about contracts, collaborations, shareholder matters, employment relationships or agreements with customers and suppliers. We look not only at the legal side, but also at what works best in practical and commercial terms for your business.
Sometimes a clear letter or a constructive conversation is enough to create movement. In other cases, proceedings are necessary. You do not make that choice lightly. We think along with you about the best strategy, the risks, the costs and the chances of success, so that you can make a well-considered decision.
If the conflict does have to be brought before the court, we ensure that your position is presented clearly, strongly and convincingly. We map out the facts, determine the legal route and keep the objective in mind at all times: a solution that fits your business.
Are you dealing with a conflict or unsure about the right approach? Feel free to contact us. We would be happy to think along with you.

Hidden defects: what to look out for?
It happens to almost everyone; you buy a product, car, house, machine, boat or appliance where at first glance nothing seems wrong, but later it turns out that there is a 'hidden defect' to the purchased product. The question is then who is liable. In this article I give examples of hidden defects, explain what the obligations of the buyer and seller are and what one should pay attention to.
The summary proceedings in brief
In my previous article, "Receiving a Subpoena? Five points of interest' I discussed five points of interest for studying a subpoena.
