Insolvency law and consultancy
As a specialist in insolvency law, Stef advises receivers and acts for them when dealing with bankruptcies, such as advising on restarting the business, maintaining jobs, and continuing production after bankruptcy. Moreover, Stef runs a general consultancy practice in corporate law. He advises and assists entrepreneurs in restructuring, drafting and reviewing commercial contracts, and shareholder disputes.

A solid strategy
Stef is seen as a realist, as someone who assesses each situation critically, honestly, and transparently. Although he’s fond of a quick win, he knows the importance of a solid strategy. Where an exception confirms the rule, he can easily reorient, as long as the goal is achieved. Stef is tenacious, and doesn’t give in quickly. Together with his colleagues, he works hard to find the best solution. And when emotions run high and threaten to dominate the discourse, he is the voice of reason – someone who harnesses his realistic and conciliatory approach to resolve any dispute.
