Dismissal
Of course you like to keep your employees within your company, but sometimes it can be good or even necessary to say goodbye to each other. In that case it is wise to make use of an employment lawyer. The employment lawyers of LVH Advocaten can assist you in all aspects of dismissing employees.
Industrial dispute or reorganisation?
If, for example, there is a difference of opinion or an industrial dispute, this usually leads to tensions and irritations and you want to quickly realize the dismissal of the employee, in order to restore peace in your company.
In the event of job losses, you want to switch quickly in order to save costs, remain competitive and ensure continuity. In this way you go from a financially insecure to a cost efficient and competitive situation.
No negative energy but a smooth and professional settlement
A long-term dismissal situation costs negative energy and (if only) that is why a dismissal must be handled smoothly and professionally. The quickest way to bring about a termination of employment is by making an arrangement in mutual consultation with the employee. This often succeeds, sometimes not. In the latter case, a dismissal procedure must be conducted at the UWV or at the subdistrict court.
Whichever option is chosen, all relevant facts and circumstances must first be brought to light and then a course of action must be set with conviction aimed at a smooth and professional settlement. An employment lawyer from LVH Advocaten can assist you in determining this course of action for an optimal result.
Resignation by the employee
Of course, it may also be the case that an employee himself resigns by terminating the employment contract. This raises questions about the applicability of competition and relationship clauses and intellectual property issues. Clear agreements on these matters are important to protect your business flow. Our employment lawyers specialise in dismissal law and can determine important points of attention in this respect and organise the appropriate protection for you.
The employment lawyers at LVH Advocaten in Rotterdam specialise in dismissal law and are happy to assist you in all aspects that your company is faced with when dismissing an employee.

Temporary law on transparency turboliquidation
The Temporary Act on Transparency Turboliquidation came into force on 15 November 2023. The consequences of this law and the additional conditions that must be met have been written about before (see, for example, the article from 22 March 2023). Despite the increased requirements, turbo liquidation is still a good tool for winding up companies with no operations and assets after 15 November 2023.
Indexation of rent by 14.5% in 2023 not unreasonable
Many lessees of commercial space faced indexation of the rent according to the consumer price index (CPI) by a percentage of 14.5% in 2023. Several tenants of commercial space disagreed, and there have since been court cases about this. From the court rulings, the view emerges that indexation of the rent in 2023 by 14.5% is not unreasonable.
Ground rent due during bankruptcy is not an estate debt
Recently, the Supreme Court issued a ruling on the question of whether a ground lease rent that became due after the date of bankruptcy is an estate debt. In this article, I first explain what estate debts are and the relevance of the question answered by the Supreme Court for practice. I then discuss the judgment.
