Construction & Property Lawyers
The construction and property sector is in full swing. Themes such as sustainable building and development, giving old office or business premises a new lease of life by changing their designated use, or creating “the home of your dreams” keep the construction sector lively and versatile. In the property sector, economic circumstances keep the margins under pressure, which means that negotiations have to be tight and prompt switching is required when it appears a party will be unable to fulfil his obligations. As a sparring partner, we are used to taking things easy one minute, only to get on with things again the next, due to time pressure.
Leeman Verheijden Huntjens Advocaten can assist you with advice and litigation with regard to disputes about selling and buying immovable property, contracting agreements, invitations to tender, construction disputes, rent disputes and neighbours’ statutory rights and obligations. Another important field of expertise is the litigation and advice about issues in the area of spatial planning.
Our client portfolio consists of contractors, project developers, landlords and housing associations.

In a recent court case concerning turboliquidation of a catering business, the court ruled that the directors were not personally liable. The case involved the discontinuation of the business without assets, with creditors being paid pro rata. The landlord claimed unlawfulness, but the court held that the turboliquidation had been carried out correctly with no obligation of bankruptcy.
Director’s liability for tax debts
Directors of troubled companies are usually aware that acts performed in the face of bankruptcy (if it comes to that) will be examined by a receiver. Unobligatory legal acts that have harmed creditors may be reversed by the trustee.
