We help Dutch and foreign clients whose fundamental rights have been breached, and have unique in-house expertise in pursuing legal action against major parties such as the Dutch State and multinationals. Many cases that our attorneys have handled have earned (inter)national renown because of their contribution to the protection of human rights. We benefit from an international network of academics and contacts with foreign law firms such as Doughty Street Chambers (UK).

Our attorneys are happy to advise you on your legal options.
