Van Hall Advocaten Arbeidsrecht

“We are very satisfied with our cooperation with Van Hall Advocaten. Their lawyers think along throughout the process, not only the legal aspects but also other aspects, such as communication and sensitivities. They take the pressure off and are good at creating an atmosphere of trust and cooperation, even when, for example, talks have to be held with our Works Council. They think along with the entrepreneur, and ensure that things are brought to a successful conclusion, constantly keeping the interests of both parties in mind.”

Danielle Kruger (HR Director) and Wijnand Kuiper (CFO)

“Van Hall Advocaten is a pleasant partner to work with for the following reasons: - Strong substantive knowledge and know how to convey this to stakeholders in a natural way (e.g. through non-legal language) - Sharp eye for main and side issues and focus on the subject under discussion - Independence, by assuming this position, Van Hall Advocaten is respected by all stakeholders - Sparring partner, taking the time and effort to first come to a clear problem and then propose solutions - 'Can do' mentality, and solutions-focused. Approaches issues not only from a legal perspective but from multiple perspectives in order to find solutions.”

“Van Hall Advocaten has been a long-time partner of Swissport in The Netherlands and for Swissport International. For our day-to-day labour law issues, Van Hall Advocaten is part of our firm and always knows how to represent the interests in the right, competent way. The pragmatic, realistic and successful approach ensures connection to larger projects. Within Swissport there are always multiple stakeholders involved. Van Hall Advocaten is always involved in each stakeholder's interest and knows how to involve them with the right tone, information and solution. This has had many positive effects on complex Dutch projects that needed to be understood internationally (HQ). It is precisely at this level that Van Hall Advocaten knows how to make a difference compared to other (international) law firms.”

Michel van de Stolpe (HR Director)

Swissport Group

“I am very satisfied with Van Hall Advocaten as a partner due to the following reasons: - The legal competence, the experience with trade unions and the HR competence of the team that assisted us. - The involvement and thinking along with us (not the classical lawyer's attitude, in which one often only points out the risks). Van Hall Advocaten often indicated how they would approach a particular issue if they were in our shoes, without, of course, giving any guarantees. - At the right moment, they would take their role in negotiations with unions, works councils and employees, so that our HR department would be kept out of the wind. - They underpromise and overdeliver.”
