Business Service Lawyers
Business services are among the fastest growing branches of industry in the Netherlands. If we include agency workers, this sector has more employees than the entire sector. Most business services companies are small and have ten members of staff or less. The threshold to start a business is low, as the provision of business services does in general demand relatively few investments in buildings, machines and stocks. As a legal firm, we ourselves form part of this diverse sector.
The lawyers of Leeman Verheijden Huntjens work closely together with a number of civil-law notaries from Rotterdam and various regional accountancy firms. Clients are also referred to one another if there is such a need. The fact that they are seen as a good and reliable partner by these parties is a big compliment for our firm.
Our client portfolio includes IT companies, accountants, tax specialists, facilities service providers and estate agents. Our team advises them during internal issues about structure and collaboration, but also in the case of mergers, dissolution and the realisation of joint ventures. We are also closely involved in preparing and concluding contracts, general terms and conditions and we provide advice about employment contracts and reorganisations. Our litigation lawyers are ready for any legal proceedings.
