Expertise

Class Actions
Companies, financial institutions and governmental bodies increasingly find themselves confronted with mass claims in the Netherlands, often initiated by well-funded claim vehicles. Over the past decade, the Dutch jurisdiction has emerged as a popular hub for such claims.
Insurance & Reinsurance
The insurance sector has been facing a series of major challenges for a number of years. Economies of scale are more vital than ever, so mergers and acquisitions are the order of the day. This is combined with intensifying regulation and pressure on premiums. The corporate market is having to manage increasingly complex products and rising claim costs.
Healthcare
The healthcare sector is under pressure. Due to an ageing population and smarter but more expensive treatment methods, costs are increasing, while further rises in healthcare spending are frowned upon. That is why the government has introduced regulated market forces.
Health, Safety & Environment
Houthoff’s HSE Team advises and litigates on the full spectrum of HSE matters from civil, administrative and criminal law perspectives and offers 24/7 support and scalable expertise during incidents.
Manufacturing
Houthoff’s Manufacturing Team advises manufacturers, chemical companies and industrials on M&A, environmental due diligence, cartel claims, outsourcing and international production opportunities in emerging economies.
