Tjeerd is a lawyer and a partner. His clients’ cases ensue from dealing with the authorities. Whether it concerns zoning plans, enforcement cases, administrative fines, claims against the authorities or invitations to tender, thanks to his extensive experience working for and against the authorities, he knows exactly which steps to take.

Tjeerd also regularly litigates in tendering cases. Together with tendering specialist Octavia Siertsema, he often organises ‘submitting a tender’ workshops to make business owners aware of the typical pitfalls of procurement law.

Tjeerd’s clients include constructors, non-profit organisations, business owners and private individuals. His job is to legally safeguard the interests of these clients. Sometimes with, but at other times against the authorities.

Tjeerd has extensive knowledge of all the aspects of administrative law. As a lawyer, he’s strong and courteous but he will also take a critical stance during a debate, if necessary. All this serves to safeguard his client's interests, which he will convey during the proceedings with great flair. Tjeerd is able to formulate matters transparently in his own, original way. This is translated into pleasantly readable, high-quality documents (including articles).
