Dutch Law Institute
About us - the Dutch Law Institute in Amsterdam
What is the Dutch Law Institute?
The Dutch Law Institute is a Dutch NGO, now in the process of being established by a number of lawyers in the Netherlands.
It aims to be an independent and preeminent centre of expertise in the fast-expanding areas of Dutch contract law, Dutch employment law, Dutch business law and legal proceedings in the Netherlands.
The Dutch Law Institute is publishing an online English guide on Dutch contract law, Dutch employment law, Dutch business law and litigation in the Netherlands. This legal guide is edited by a number of selected experts on Dutch law. With this publication, the Institute intends to increase the accessibility of Dutch law.
In addition to these legal services and outreach activities, our legal affairs bureau and research institute pursues a number of other activities to promote the accessibility of these areas of Dutch law. These activities include providing commentary in (inter)national media, giving policy advice, and organizing lectures, seminars and other events.
Founder and Chair of the Board:
Jan Willem de Groot (who is a lawyer in the Netherlands, and who rendered legal services in Amsterdam over 35 years to both local and foreign clients) is the initiator and one of the three founders of the Dutch Law Institute. He will also be chair of the Institute's board. Jan Willem is responsible for (a) the overall direction in which this NGO will move and (b) managing the day-to-day activities of the Institute.
Jan Willem de Groot and the other board members of the Dutch Law Institute do not receive any remuneration for their board-membership nor their other activities for the Institute.
