Daan Spoormans

Netherlands
Ekelmans Advocaten - Insurance & Corporate

Daan’s legal practice has two areas of focus. Companies with international operations, insurers and law firms from other jurisdictions frequently ask him to assist them with complex disputes related to contracts. In addition to Dutch, Daan speaks and writes both English and German fluently.

Daan also regularly conducts the defence for executive or supervisory directors who have been accused of errors in their management or oversight. He has already successfully defended several dozen executive and supervisory directors, and not once has a client been ordered by the court to pay a claim against which Daan filed a defence. Daan is engaged for these assignments by insurance companies or by the directors themselves.

Daan has an acute understanding of both the legal and the strategic aspects. His approach is thorough but also cost-efficient. He is hard on the content and soft on the person. In his analysis, he considers the interests of stakeholder parties as well as the legal positions these parties could adopt (or have adopted). Daan is approachable; he is happy to make time for clients who want to discuss a new issue that has arisen, even when that time is not billable.
