BarentsKrans fields a strong commercial, financial and corporate litigation team, which largely focuses on assisting claimants in complex domestic and international disputes. Financial litigation cases are led by William Schonewille, who acts for investors, consumers and financial institutions. Martijn van Maanen splits his time between corporate and commercial litigation, assisting with private enforcement, fraud and directors' liability cases. Litigation and arbitration matters are handled by Rieme-Jan Tjittes, a Supreme Court litigator and appointed substitute Justice in the Netherlands Commercial Court. Commercial contract litigation is the forte of Annelies van der Ploeg. Philip Fruytier excels in Supreme Court litigation and often acts for insurers, real estate investors and developers, competition litigation claim funders and international organisations. The Hague-based team is co-led by Schonewille, van Maanen, Tjittes, van der Ploeg and Fruytier.
