Enforcement and sanctions

Team Enforcement and Sanctions provides assistance in various matters such as fines and other penalties. In cases where fines or other penalties are imposed, we can assist you and your company. We advise you and your company on the strategy and express your point of view during proceedings both in court and in earlier stages. We also offer legal assistance during inspections and investigations. We assist you when an Inspectorate or Investigative service conducts an investigation on your activities or that of your company. We know what your rights and obligations during an investigation are, to what extent you should cooperate and what the possible follow-up steps are after the investigation. We can provide assistance when authorities are on your doorstep, when questions are asked in an interrogation, and we can advise you on how to response at questions and claims.

Advice on prevention

We help you and your company to prevent fines and other penalties. We know what is and what is not allowed, and where the risks of enforcement lie. We provide substantive training, carry out audits, set up compliance programs, and prepare your company for inspections and investigations.

We have experience with most common sanctions and supervisors, including:

  • Fines and other sanctions in the area of environmental law, often imposed by the Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate (IL&T) or by the Emission Authority (Nea);
  • Fines and other sanctions in the area of working conditions, often imposed by the Inspectorate SZW (ISZW);
  • Supervision and enforcement actions by the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) in areas such as competition law or consumer law;
  • All criminal cases in which the Public Prosecutor is involved, also in cases regarding the confiscation of unlawfully obtained profit;
  • Supervision and enforcement by the Dutch Healthcare Authority (NZa).
