De Legal 500, een jaarlijkse ranglijst van advocatenkantoren over de hele wereld, heeft de EMEA 2023-gids gelanceerd. De ranglijst wordt samengesteld op basis van objectief onderzoek naar de ervaring en feedback van cliënten en vakgenoten. Tot onze trots kregen wij ook dit jaar weer vermeldingen voor de commerciële procespraktijk en arbeidsrecht, die dit jaar is gestegen naar Tier 4.

 "Wij danken onze cliënten die zich zo positief hebben uitgesproken over onze dienstverlening: solide en pragmatisch. Wij zijn trots op de noteringen van onze advocaten Floris Diepraam, Robbert Boesveld, Babette Blaisse-Verkooijen, Oscar van der Pol, Cathelijne Otte, Muriel Middeldorp en Hester Tonino" aldus Martyn Top, managing partner en advocaat arbeidsrecht.

The Legal 500 – 2023 vermeldt onder andere het volgende:

Employment law – Tier 4

Characterised by its focus on advising multinationals on cases in the Netherlands, Pot Jonker Advocaten which also acts for Dutch companies and upper management, is regularly instructed on the full spectrum of employment matters, particularly #MeToo allegations, transfer of undertakings, and absenteeism and reintegration issues. The firm has specific experience in the healthcare, construction, agri-food and technology sectors. Hester Tonino leads the team and specialises in employment, healthcare and privacy law. The practice was strengthened by the arrival of Martyn Top from Höcker Advocaten in March 2022.
