The ideal legal team for SMEs

We are your multidisciplinary, full-service legal team for tailored advice and support with fast response times. One place where you can turn to for all your legal questions, big and small.

The Legal Company supports you as an SME on a daily basis with the experience of having your own in-house legal department. We offer you the luxury of daily legal sparring sessions or checks, something that is normally only feasible for larger companies. This service for SMEs is sorely needed, because the law simply does not distinguish between large companies and SMEs when it comes to compliance.

Expertise

What are the benefits of working with our firm?

  • We work with transparent costs, so you always receive a clear quote from us.
  • We charge reasonable hourly rates that are lower than those of law firms, while delivering the same result (highly expert advice and tailored solutions).
  • We stay close to your business, so our approach is highly pragmatic.
  • We enjoy working in a multidisciplinary way, so we know when to pass the ball on if your matter also requires another specialist. Think of a tax advisor, an accountant, a mediator, a pension advisor, an insurance advisor, or a notary, for example.

What our clients say about us

We got in touch with TLC in 2019.

As a small service organization with an American parent company, we have limited in-house knowledge of Dutch employment and contract law.

From Amstelwijs, I have had the following positive experiences with Hella:

Hella is extremely knowledgeable in the field of tenancy law. She also communicates pleasantly and is quick to deliver documents. If you’re looking for someone with a sharp eye to review your contracts, I would recommend asking TLC!

Pentharo
Carolien van der Veld

As a cleaning organization, we have been a member of the Legal Safe subscription since 2017.

For 4 years now, we have been extremely happy that we took out this subscription, because the entire team is on hand to answer our questions and resolve any issues, among other things.

Shannen Bulk & Janny

The Legal Company takes care of (HR) legal matters for us, and that is exactly what you notice in practice. They take these concerns off your hands so you can get on with ‘your own work’. Thanks to their subscription structure, you don’t immediately pay large amounts for relatively simple questions, which is great.

Beauty District
Hans van Zandbergen

Hella and Alain provided excellent support to our foundation in late 2019 with useful advice on a matter that was complex for us. Hella came up with a good solution, new to us, which we embraced wholeheartedly.

Vivian Rinat

Aside from the fact that TLC advises us well and has extensive knowledge, it is above all their personal approach that makes it pleasant to work with them. They also go the extra mile in terms of service, which really makes you feel taken care of.
