Automotive lawyers
For the lawyers of Leeman Verheijden Huntjens Advocaten, the automotive sector has been familiar territory for many years now. It is a dynamic sector, where developments follow each other in rapid succession. Our team closely follows developments, trends and innovations. Our clients appreciate a sparring partner who knows what goes on in their markets.
Consultancy in the automotive sector covers a wide area and demands teamwork from our specialists. There are for instance many issues in the fields of competition rules, takeovers and joint ventures. In addition to operational matters such as contracts and disputes with suppliers and buyers, we also assist you in the case of reorganisation, financing and refinancing, (strategic) joint ventures and entering new markets, but also with collection cases and redundancies.
If there is a conflict, we always look for a fast and constructive solution. Being able to switch fast can often prevent the parties from getting bogged down in lengthy legal proceedings. The latter is not preferred, but if legal proceedings contribute to the best result for our clients, we will of course not shy away from them.
We support suppliers of the car industry, as well as manufacturers, car and truck dealers and lease companies.

New rules on wage transparency
The EU Pay Transparency Directive and the pay gap in the Netherlands are creating new obligations for employers. The core of the directive is that employers must be more transparent about their remuneration structures and must be able to justify pay differences. The most important change is that the burden of proof is shifting. From now on, employers must demonstrate that they pay equal wages. If they cannot do so, they must explain the difference.

Limitation period for spouse’s power to annul legal acts performed without consent
For certain legal acts, one spouse needs the consent of the other spouse. If this consent is not given, the other spouse can annul the legal act. In short, this applies to decisions regarding the family home, gifts, providing security (such as a guarantee) and hire purchase.
