Anne Jaakke

“It is a relief that this team of lawyers does not unnecessarily legalise employment matters, acts quickly, and speaks our language.”

Marij van Onzenoort

“Marian and her team always approach what is presented to them with an open and critical eye. They search for new solutions that go beyond the letter of the law and also focus on the dynamics between parties, whether it is the individual employee, the cooperation with the headquarters, or with the works councils. They are not afraid to give an opinion, even if it goes beyond the path of the law. Always quick to respond, decisive, and acting as a logical extension of your own organization. A particularly great business partner to work with!”

Angele Loomans
HR Director Global, BDR Thermea Group

“A discerning sparring partner that excels in coordinating and resolving sensitive issues at executive level in the numerous countries. We deliberately prefer not to opt for a global firm, because of the lack of any critical evaluation of fees and service.”
