Data Protection

GDPR and domestic privacy considerations

Fines and Individual Liability

A competition law infringement can have one or more consequences such as contracts being null and void and/or fines by the European Commission or the ACM. Also, individuals such as directors (feitelijk leidinggevenden) can be fined by the ACM. We can assist businesses and individuals facing a fine.

Internal Investigations

We routinely assist businesses investigating whether they or their employees or partners have engaged in any illegal behaviour which can entail liability. This is done by document review, reviewing custodian emails and using other IT forensic tools and means. We can then advise on the best action to take.
