Legal 500 Editorial commentary

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘When receiving advice from law firms in other countries, it is often the case that we lack background knowledge of that country's laws. Therefore, it is important to have expertise in the relevant laws, explain them in a way that is easy for us to understand, and resolve any questions we may have. In this regard, my experience working with HEUSSEN was positive.’

  • ‘I worked with Martjin Koot and Sandy van der Schaaf in the previous deal. They have been diligent, passionate and professional in their efforts to assist the deal. Also, replies were prompt, so the work proceeded smoothly despite the time difference between the two countries.’

  • 'Very helpful.'

  • 'Tim Schreuders and Martijn Koot are both very accessible, practical and helpful. They know the subject matter well and apply in a practical fashion.'
