Profile

With a career starting in 2000, I specialize in corporate law and insolvency, frequently working alongside tax consultants, notaries, and accountants to provide integrated legal solutions. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience supporting entrepreneurs in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial contracts, as well as representing them in legal proceedings.

As a trustee, I engage with a wide range of stakeholders, gaining valuable insight into different industries and the risks entrepreneurs face—insight that helps me provide practical and strategic legal advice. My litigation and advisory work often go hand in hand, enabling me to anticipate challenges and protect clients’ interests both in and out of court.

I’m a member of the Dutch Association for Insolvency Law Advocates and remain committed to continuous professional development to maintain and deepen my expertise in my registered legal fields. Should you have any questions or need personalized legal support, feel free to reach out.
