Boels Zanders Advocaten

Insolvency, Compliance and integrity, Contracts, Restructuring

People: in the end, that’s what the legal profession is all about. Working for and with people. It suits Merel, as a caring person, to listen to people. To invest in lasting and respectful relationships with colleagues and clients. Every day, she is inspired by the knowledge and experience of the people she works with.

How about her work? She is happy to adopt a solution-oriented approach. How about that solution? It’s rarely legal in nature. Rather, Merel is committed to preventing legal problems and relieving her clients’ concerns. She handles various compliance issues, focusing mainly on advising international companies on subjects such as exports and international sanctions regimes. Merel has also gained extensive experience in insolvency and restructuring. In addition, she advises on product and quality requirements and labelling regulations for food and food products, in particular.

Merel studied at Tilburg University and Lund University. She completed her master’s degree in Law at Tilburg University, specialising in Private Law. Merel is a member of the Dutch Association of Young Insolvency Law Practitioners (JIRA). She has been working for Boels Zanders since 2016.
