All legal and administrative expertise at the Ox Market.With the above advantages, we are able to offer a complete service from start to finish. For example, you can think of the following situations;A supervisor observes when (administrative) fines are imposed that violators more often cite their inability to pay a fine. Current policies are examined that also look at the interface with criminal law. From this research follow recommendations for a “judge-proof” policy and a proposal for implementation. After implementation, the policy is raised in administrative proceedings, where legal representation may be provided.A vessel is moored at a berth within an industrial area on municipal territory. Initially, the ship had a utilitarian function. The owner of the ship, however, has moved into the ship. Discussions have taken place in the past where commitments were made to the owner about the use of municipal land. In such a case, investigation of the facts will have to take place first. Conclusions about the legality of the situation then follow. For example, there appears to be a conflict with the zoning plan and a use agreement has arisen. An opinion will be issued on the next steps to be taken in both private law (property) and administrative law (conflict with zoning plan). If necessary, a private law eviction proceeding or an administrative law enforcement proceeding should be conducted.Within the cooperation, the most appropriate rate can be applied to each activity in each case. In this way, the services will be cheaper than if you only hire a law firm and more complete than if you only request an administrative law attorney or investigator.If you have any questions about the services we provide or would like a quote (whether as part of a tender or otherwise), please contact Bertil Westers, Liesbeth Holtz-Russel, Constantijn de Lange, or Govert Brouwer.
