Expertises

Competition
We advise and assist national and international companies, institutions and governments in procedures before the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets, the European Commission, foreign competition authorities, and the relevant (specialised) courts.
Litigation
Business disputes can have a major impact on your organisation's reputation, continuity and financial position. Conflicts are becoming increasingly common due to growing regulation and social pressure. Shareholder disputes, contractual conflicts, directors' liability and collective actions invariably call for a well thought-out strategy and a thorough understanding of the sector.
EU
EU law has a huge impact on almost all sectors and businesses. In many sectors, fair competition in the internal EU market is ensured through highly detailed and complex regulations relating to market access, production processes and products and services offered on the market.
Corporate Litigation
Corporate disputes often strike at the heart of an organisation – whether involving shareholders, directors, governance structures or M&A-related conflicts. These matters demand not only deep legal expertise, but a sharp understanding of corporate dynamics and reputational stakes.
Automotive
The automotive sector is undergoing major shifts. Today’s fast-changing world means that dealer and repair networks are being restructured, leading to the gradual disappearance of traditional distribution methods and the constant amendment of EU regulations.
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.
Retail & Consumer Goods
The inevitable shift to omni-channel selling leads to more complex distribution and data processing and requires strategic collaborations and good chain directors to create and maintain a level playing field.
Transport & Logistics
The growing consumer market, the arrival of large European distribution centres and rising demand in the construction sector are all contributing to a greater demand for physical goods flows, and with it a growing need for transport.
Financial Services
The financial sector is subject to increasing regulation, both within and outside Europe. It has become more complex and challenging for financial institutions to continuously anticipate and comply with constantly changing regulations.
