This is what clients say about the team:

"Shearwaters is 'a small firm with very personalised and attentive service which is highly specialised in employment law and the nuances between local and international implications".

"The team's commercial employment focus covers executive dismissals, works council consultations, collective redundancies and reorganisations."

"Martijn van Broeckhuijsen and Maarten Vestering co-head the group; 'both provide advice without allowing the heat of the situation to interfere with timing and decisions".

"The group's clients include international law firms as well as corporates."

"An excellent team with a business-oriented rather than a minimalistic legal view, which helps the transaction."

"Quick turnaround, clear communications and guidance."

"The lawyers have a good understanding of M&A and how that translates to the Dutch employment situation. Quick turnaround, clear communications and guidance."

"The team was able to package the advice in such a way that we could easily forward it to other departments in our company. There was no legalese and it was very clear."

"It really understands us and our commercial drivers."
