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.

Land grabbing: the legal options when losing ownership of land
There may be a dispute between neighbors about who owns a particular piece of land. Such a dispute may arise if at any time one of the neighbors places a yard fence in such a way that it takes possession of a piece of land owned by the other. The owner has the option of claiming his property (or filing a revindicatory action). However, such a claim cannot be brought after a period of time due to acquisitive prescription.
Work-at-home policies and the role of the works council
Since the beginning of the corona crisis, hybrid working has been the norm. The number of corona infections is slowly increasing again. It is not inconceivable that some companies will soon again require their employees to work wholly or partially from home.
Everything you need to know about a unilateral modification clause
There may be reasons for you as an employer to unilaterally amend certain terms and conditions of employment if you are unable to reach an agreement with the employee(s). For example, to adjust the travel allowance because employees are working from home more often since the corona crisis.
