Founded by Mr Bob Schuit in 1973, our law firm’s offices are located in a stately building across from the Amsterdam Rijksmuseum.We provide legal aid to corporate and private clients, including services provided pro bono. Our firm serves as a large scale litigation and debt collection for clients both foreign and domestic. We are a member of the Dutch Vereniging Incasso- en procesrecht Advocaten [Association of Invoice and Procedural Lawyers], the Law Link Nederland lawyer network, and the collaborative Law Link International.
Our firm’s vision is to provide traditional and swift service, with an emphasis on personal and confidential client contact. Our “office with a view” not only keeps an eye out for the interests of justice, but also looks out on the former entrance to the Rijksmuseum, singularly captured on canvas by renowned Dutch painter Carel Willink. The only known replica of this masterpiece was gifted to our firm by Mrs. Sylvia Willink-Quiël.

Our firm is a member of Law Link Netherlands and International.
Law Link Netherlands has existed as an actively cooperative network of lawyers for 25 years. Since 2007, its emphasis has been on preserving and transferring knowledge. To that end, former colleague Edo Polak and SPH partner Edwin Slager founded Law Link College. Law Link College provides yearly multi-day courses, and is an educational institute recognised by the Dutch Orde van Advocaten [Order of Attorneys].
Law Link International is a cross-border collaboration of law firms in various countries, including France, Belgium, the UK, Italy, Turkey, Germany, Spain, Hungary, Dubai, Chili, the Netherlands Antilles, and Brazil.
Membership of this lawyer network allows our firm to provide legal aid to our clients abroad at fixed rates.
Members of this collaborative effort meet up at one of its member states twice a year. Since 2015, Evert van den Hout has held the role of president of Law Link International.
In addition, our firm is also a member of the Oram and Westpoort associations of undertakings, and the Dutch Maatschappij voor Nijverheid en Handel [Society for Industry and Trade], est. 1777.
