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.

The need for employer monitoring exceeds - partly in view of the corona pandemic - the mere checking of the workplace with cameras. Employers also have a need to monitor employees' browsing habits, as well as the emails they send. And, of course, they want to prevent employees from spending hours Internet shopping and watching TV at the home workplace during working hours. But isn't monitoring this a violation of the employee's privacy, especially at the home workplace? In this article, we address that question. Is an employer allowed to use monitoring tools and what rules must the employer abide by during a monitoring. To form a clear picture, we will also discuss case law.
Sexual transgressive behavior in the workplace: is it seriously culpable?
Sexual transgressive behavior in the workplace unfortunately occurs regularly. As an employer, you would think that this is an irrefutable reason for dismissal and that the behavior is seriously culpable, so that no transitional compensation is owed to the employee and the employee cannot claim unemployment benefits. However, practice is more recalcitrant.
