M. (Maarten) Blok

After studying law at Utrecht University, Maarten worked at another law firm for five years. He has now been a lawyer at Van Veen Advocaten for more than ten years. Here he strengthens the sections corporate law, insolvency law and real estate law.

Maarten mainly serves SME entrepreneurs, directors, creditors and individuals. Among other things, he is experienced in drafting and reviewing agreements. He advises on directors’ liability or the (re)purchase and (re)lease of houses. He is also involved in helping creditors collect payments and informing them about the possibilities in case of bankruptcy.

The client’s best interests are Maarten’s primary concern. He therefore always investigates whether a case can be settled out of court.

“Maarten is an approachable lawyer with a calm demeanor. He knows how to analyze difficult issues well to then clearly articulate disputes and (legal) solutions. Maarten likes dry humor and can easily make contact. In handling the case he is of no-nonsense and this his clients appreciate.”
