Do you have a love for insolvency law? Would you like to expand your career or start at a firm where you can be close to the business right away? Then our team would like to meet you! We are looking for an enthusiastic trainee lawyer to expand our practice. You will participate fully from the beginning and will soon be given your own responsibilities.
Our team consists of four attorneys specialized in civil law, a legal assistant and a team assistant (legal secretary). Together we advise business owners on bankruptcy issues, restructurings, financing & securities and banking issues. We also provide recovery work (including directors' liability proceedings and attachments) for our clients. Our attorneys team can also be appointed as trustees in bankruptcies: this room to grow also applies to you. In your position you will assist the attorneys in the role of receiver and assist in the advisory and litigation practice.
Once you start with us, you will start working as a legal assistant. You will be part of an ambitious team. In your daily work, you will support the attorneys in their files by doing fact and case law research, drafting draft letters and litigation. In short, you will assist the attorneys in all facets of their files. One day they will be a sparring partner for an experienced corporate lawyer, the next day a questioner for a business owner. Very varied and dynamic. You can count on help: your colleague's proverbial door is always open for sparring. Moreover, one of our attorneys employees will guide you and be your permanent point of contact.
After an introductory period, during which you will get to know our firm and our clients well, and upon proven suitability, you will quickly grow into the role of trainee attorney(s)* and start professional training attorneys. You will then start working on your own files. We like you to excel. So you will be given assignments that you are good at and that you enjoy doing. You translate your knowledge into practical advice. This is rewarding work, because you notice how happy the client is when they can immediately proceed with your advice. Although you recognize problems, you always think in terms of solutions.
*Ifyou are already more advanced in professional training, we will of course take this into account.
We are not looking for the sheep with five legs. In fact, this sheep does not exist. We are looking for an enthusiastic team player with a passion for the law and an affinity with our industry. We enjoy combining our expertise to achieve the best results for our clients. Striving for quality comes naturally to you. You enjoy immersing yourself in practices and files and are a real go-getter. You are critical, accurate and goal-oriented and have good social skills. Perhaps you also have a commercial attitude and the ambition to grow? Great! However, these can also be qualities that you want to develop with us.
Furthermore, you have a completed degree in Dutch law, preferably in civil law. You have good analytical skills and some creativity and curiosity. Of course you have excellent oral and written expression in the Dutch language.
With us, you can make the most of your talents. That is why we have developed a talent management program. This program gives you the opportunity, even if you already have a lot of work experience, to continue to develop. Together with your 'buddy' you regularly discuss your ambitions and development questions. We are happy to help you with this.
We speak the same language as our customers, which are almost all business owners. So no fancy talk and long-winded texts. (Legal) advice on an A4, that idea. But then, of course, ironclad advice.
We always advise our clients with an eye to the future. And so we also look at our own actions. How sustainable are we now and can we be better? For example, less printing, more planting. Your ideas are more than welcome.
Something sweet with coffee, we just love that. That also means we like to exercise. Because that gown, while it is wide, with all those croissants and apple turnovers, we want the scales to stay balanced. Just like the relationship between personal and work.
From free mibo to office cabaret, we like to make it fun. If someone is going to do the Seven Hills Run, a few colleagues join in like this. We also go skiing together every year. And if you prefer to skip these outings? Even then you will feel at home with us.
Yes! Is that your thought when you see our job posting? Then here is a sneak peek of the first steps on your career path with us. We don't select by name, but by content.
