“Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.”

“We are a small, talented and slightly obsessed team that has been consistently performing in the same composition for almost 15 years, backed by a client portfolio which has been loyal to us for all those years. Our platform genuinely enables us to contribute to the achievement of our clients goals where possible.”

Hans is a corporate and real estate lawyer who focuses on providing a hands-on legal, commercial and strategic counselling for privately or publicly held companies, investment funds, and private equity funds, in the Netherlands and internationally. Hans was admitted to practice in 1995 with one of the top tier firms in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
