Company law

Matthy van Paridon more than held his own amid the typically American onslaught of advisers and endless questionnaires that came our way. Thanks in no small part to him, we had the right team of lawyers, tax advisers and financial advisers in place, and we were able to complete the deal in good harmony for everyone involved.

Great service and trusted advice

I am a UK business that needed help with a variety of legal issues in the Netherlands and was recommended RWV from our UK Lawyers. I have used Rick Kuivenhoven for a few matters in the Netherlands now and he has helped me greatly, always putting my interests first and charging in a fair and responsible manner. I would 100% recommend this firm they have provided excellent service and I could not have asked for more. Hopefully I won't need to use them soon but should the need arise, I will definitely be calling upon RWV to assist me. Thank you for all your help!

Pleasant collaboration and expert guidance

That does not surprise me, given my own experience with him. When it comes to navigating matters skilfully and negotiating smartly, he is the person to turn to.

Closing the business was not an easy decision. Thanks in part to Harjo Bakker and Kelly Verheij, an agreement was reached that allowed us – and our creditors – to move on with our lives. They have a wealth of knowledge, but beyond that they understood us and always made time for us whenever we wanted to discuss matters or had questions.

Matthy van Paridon defended our interests tooth and nail and even achieved more than we had hoped for beforehand. Our expectations were exceeded during the process. Naturally, we are therefore very positive about our experience with RWV, and with Matthy in particular.

Kelly was the perfect partner for reviewing our franchise agreements. Her experience and specialist knowledge of franchise law enabled her to discuss the franchise aspects of our business in both practical and legal terms. The communication between us was very pleasant, both for us and for our franchisees.
