We're proud of our clients

“We decided to work with L&A Advocaten several years ago, and it's a choice we still stand by today. We need an employment law partner who understands our business and can provide us with the right support. Who can both handle practical work for us and offer in-depth guidance where necessary. By quickly offering the relevant solution we need, without getting bogged down in legal lectures. Our collaboration ranges from updating our employment contracts to full case management in cassation proceedings. The L&A team has the right people to help us meet any need at a realistic cost. For us, it's essential that the business partnership is deeply ingrained in every L&A team member. That's what sets them apart from other offices, and why we're happy to continue this successful partnership.

“L&A has been our go-to law firm for several years. When it comes to supporting individual cases and for advice, the lines of communication are short, response times quick, and the advice pragmatic. In late 2020, widespread transgressive behaviour was uncovered at one of our locations, and quite a few people were involved. L&A guided and supported us closely during the investigation and in settling multiple cases. They also had an on-site team available for several weeks to provide top-notch service. Thanks in part to L&A, we were able to let quite a few employees go, quickly and carefully.”
