Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- 'Dieter Strubenhoff: Acted out of court for our company in an insurance case and in court for a warranty case. In both cases he conducted negotiations calmly and matter-of-factly and, when things went off course, he brought them back to the essentials. From a procedural point of view, he was very good, especially given the foreign context of the case.'
