Contracts

Which rights are regulated by law, and which should you lay down in contracts? Does your company have solid standard terms and conditions? How are contracts interpreted?

HJ Advocaten advises companies and their boards about entering into, drafting and terminating agreements. Of course we can also review your current contracts and advise you about risks and opportunities. We also advise about the creation or enforcement of security rights (rights of pledge and mortgage).

Bankruptcy Law

Can your company withstand storms? One of your clients has payment problems, how do you limit the risks for your business? Which restructuring possibilities do you have ? When does directors’ liability arise?

HJ Advocaten can optimise your company’s resilience. We analyse the company and are right next to you during the subsequent restructuring, if necessary. HJ Advocaten also assists entrepreneurs facing bankruptcy, for instance by negotiating with creditors and insolvency practitioners.

Our lawyers frequently act as insolvency practitioners in bankruptcies. This experience comes in useful in other cases.

Procedural Law

Can litigation be avoided? When does litigation stand a chance of success? You received a writ of summons, now what?

HJ Advocaten tries to avoid litigation. This often takes a great deal of time and money. Usually parties are better off settling. However, if litigation is inevitable, we will provide expert and to-the-point counsel and actions.

Employment Law

Are your employment contracts water-tight? Which strategy is best in case of dismissal or reorganisation? How to handle non-competition or non-solicitation clauses? How to avoid employment disputes?

HJ Advocaten advises on employment law. Our lawyers are specialists in drafting and reviewing employment contracts for entrepreneurs and counseling employees on questions about settlement agreements or conflicts.

Mediation

Do you wish to resolve a business conflict, preferably out of court? Is the reorganisation of your business causing unrest and discontent? Or do you have an employment conflict?

One of HJ’s mediators will help you find a solution that respects the mutual interests of all parties. The mediator gets your communication going again, enabling parties to reach a solution quickly. A solution of their own choosing, and one that works for both parties.

Tenancy law

Wishing to renovate real estate as a property owner, but having tenants in the premises? Or wondering if the contractual terms in the rental agreements are still correct or what service fees can legally be charged? Or are you involved in a rental dispute?
