International Services
\n<\/span><\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div>
The international practice of WILLEMS SCHMIDT Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte has focused in particular on international and cross-border trade and businesses. The Netherlands is a trading country par excellence, in which import and export of both goods and services have always played a major role. Many facets of the law play a role in (cross-border) commercial transactions, such as contract law, corporate law, property law and insolvency law, but tort, intellectual property law and administrative law can also be of great importance in running a (commercial) company. . The culture and customs of the various parties are also facets of international business that should not be underestimated. It is for this reason that the lawyers of WILLEMS SCHMIDT have been involved for years in all aspects of (international) trading, so that they can assist both the smaller and the large party in all issues that arise in the (international) trade can arise, both in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and the United States, as well as in the rest of the world.<\/div>
<\/div><\/div>
Germany<\/a><\/div>
Germany is the Netherlands’ largest trading partner, both in terms of exports and imports. The annual trade volume between the two countries is among the largest in the world.<\/p>\n

With such a large volume of trade and the associated other matters such as employment contracts, leases, real estate contracts, local services, etc., it is important to be well informed in business and legal terms and to receive expert guidance in cross-border issues as well as in the national issues of both countries.<\/p>\n

The ties with Germany are also very close in the field of education, art, culture and science and expert and appropriate advice in the field of IP law, entertainment law and contract law is of great importance.<\/p>\n

Although the Netherlands and Germany have long been trusted trading partners, the countries have as many differences as similarities. It is for this reason that Willems Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte focuses on both legal and practical guidance for doing business, living and working in Germany and the Netherlands.<\/p>\n

With its presence in Amsterdam & D\u00fcsseldorf, Willems Schmidt Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte offers specialist legal and business assistance in both the Netherlands and Germany.<\/p>\n

In case you have questions or need assistance in both countries at the same time, Willems Schmidt provides it behind one door, on both sides of the border, through the close cooperation between the two branches.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

United States<\/a><\/div>
Willems Schmidt Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte and Rasco Klock Perez & Nieto in New York City and Miami have been working closely together since January 2019 in providing legal services to both large and smaller companies and individuals in the United States of America and Europe.<\/p>\n

The United States of America is the largest investor in the Netherlands. In 2014, 645 billion US dollars were invested from the United States in the Netherlands, while at the same time 265 billion US dollars were invested from our country in the United States. This makes the Netherlands the third largest foreign investor in the US.<\/p>\n

To do business in the United States, knowledge of local customs and regulations is of great importance. The same, of course, applies to business from the US in Europe. Good legal and business assistance is therefore indispensable, whether it concerns setting up a company, concluding commercial contracts or protecting intellectual property. Our Dutch-American team is therefore committed to preparing and guiding parties legally and commercially when entering into (commercial) transactions, starting companies, or any other (business) adventure whatsoever.
\nIn addition, Willems is committed to starting and experienced entrepreneurs and companies that want to expand their market within Europe or to the United States of America.<\/p>\n

For large Dutch companies, the door to the United States has been open for a long time. For the time being, they use the many large law firms that have offices in the United States. This is often a costly affair, which means that the gate is only open to a select group. As a result, SMEs and the smaller segment of large Dutch companies have to ignore access to the United States. It is for this reason, among others, that Willems Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte has built a permanent bridge with the heart of the American business world, Manhattan, and The Greater New York City area, through the collaboration with Rasco Klock cs, in New York. Using this permanent bridge is usually a less expensive affair, so that the gateway to the United States has also been opened for SMEs and the smaller segment of large Dutch companies.<\/p>\n

Large and smaller parties, both from the Netherlands and the United States, are assisted in all aspects of cross-Atlantic business. One of our American colleagues is a native Dutch speaker.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Belgium<\/a><\/div>
Belgium is the largest trading partner of the Netherlands after Germany and, although often underestimated, Belgium is of great importance to the Netherlands in the political, military, economic and cultural fields. In addition, the Netherlands is the largest exporter on the Belgian market, closely followed by Germany.<\/p>\n

The close relationship with Belgium and Luxembourg within the BeNeLux also shows that Belgium is indispensable for the Dutch trading market.<\/p>\n

The ties between Belgium and the Netherlands and Belgium and Germany serve as springboards for many trade transactions involving both goods and services.<\/p>\n

Although the Netherlands and Belgium show similarities in many respects, there are also many differences in terms of law and custom. Qualitative, expert and appropriate advice for matters between Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands is therefore of great importance.<\/p>\n

It is for this reason that Willems Schmidt Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte has an established long-term partnership with Van Huffelen & Co Advocaten & Mediators, with whom we assist companies, entrepreneurs and individuals in doing business, living and working in Belgium as well as from the Netherlands, both in Germany and in the Netherlands. from Belgium who assist parties in the Netherlands and Germany.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Austria<\/a><\/div>
Austria is a knowledge country. Austria’s most important commercial sectors are the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, the chemical industry (plastics), the IT and telecom industry, the electrical industry, the steel industry, logistics services and tourism. The annual trade volume between the Netherlands and Austria is significant (\u20ac15.3 billion direct investment from Austria to the Netherlands and \u20ac5.4 billion direct investment from the Netherlands to Austria). See the annual report 2022 of the WK\u00d6, AussenwirtschaftsCenter The Hague.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands is also interesting for Austrian companies to establish themselves as a hub for transnational activities. With such a volume of trade and the associated other matters, (international) contracts, such as distribution and agency contracts, IT service and license contracts, general terms and conditions, and often also employment contracts, leases, real estate contracts, etc. are required. We can draw up such contracts for you and explain them in the Austrian language and with a view to Austrian daily practice and, if necessary, draw them up. The ties with Austria are also very close in the field of education, art, culture and science and expert and appropriate advice in the field of IP law, entertainment law and contract law is of great importance. See, among other things, regarding design and fashion.<\/p>\n

Although Austria, the Netherlands and Germany have long been trusted trading partners, the countries have as many differences as similarities. It is for this reason that Willems Schmidt Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte focuses on both legal and practical guidance for doing business, living and working in Austria and the Netherlands. With its presence in Amsterdam & Vienna, Willems Schmidt Advocaten & Rechtsanw\u00e4lte offers specialist legal and business assistance in both the Netherlands and Austria.
