Van Doorne‘s practice is considered to be ‘excellent in determining strategies’ by its clients. Representing auditors and civil notaries in complex professional liability cases concerning malpractice forms a significant portion of the team’s workload, as do D&O liability cases. Furthermore, the team handles warranty and indemnity matters, and general liability claims of considerable value including those in the insurtech sector.
