‘I like the straightforward approach. The team around David is very approachable, you can always call and the advice helps in everyday business life. You feel well advised and are also made aware of new laws and regulations without getting the feeling that David and his team mainly want to sell hours, but want to help.’
‘David is not only an expert in legal matters but also in technical matters. This is extremely valuable, as there are very few lawyers who are familiar with both the technical and legal aspects.’
‘The uniqueness of VISCHER's team is that they can keep pace with the rapid technological developments.’
‘The VISCHER experts have an exceptional understanding of business.’
