Territorial desks


Our firm maintains territorial desks, in which we have pooled a profound knowledge with respect to certain territories. These desks are either based in Curaçao or the Netherlands. Their members are native or fluent in the principal languages of the territories concerned.

Our desks offer clients a single point of contact for all their activities worldwide, in close collaboration with local counsels – ensuring that cross-border projects are carried-out in full awareness of existing legal and cultural differences.

We operate desks in connection with the following markets:
