Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- 'The NautaDutilh team is my go-to local counsel for all types of financing transactions involving the Netherlands and Luxembourg. They are sophisticated, commercial, responsive and reliable. I have found them to be much more knowledgeable about US financings than many of their counterparts. They always exhibit great communication and raise issues for us in a timely and appropriate manner.'
- 'Janneke de Goeij-Prins is a star. I absolutely love having her on deals with me. She and I have worked together for many years. She is even keeled under pressure and incredibly sophisticated and commercial. She runs her teams with expertise.'
