Inge van Hees-Wolswijk is specialized in business and financial law. She advises clients, including financial institutions and insurance corporations, on, inter alia, credit facilities, collateral documentation and financial regulatory matters.

She started her career at NautaDutilh, one of the most prominent law firms in the Netherlands, where she worked for six years. She moved to Curacao in 2015. In addition to her experience in banking transactions, she also advises on general corporate law issues, corporate governance, cross-border mergers, acquisitions, and other restructurings. She advises on the applicable laws on all Dutch Caribbean Islands (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, Saba, Statia and Sint Maarten).
Because of her background, she has a wealth of knowledge about articles of association, other company rules and regulations, and internal company matters. Besides, she advises on financing structures and regulatory financial law. Her clients include local and international companies, financial institutions, and insurers. Inge is also part of our team involved with aircraft and shipping transactions.
