Littler Now Present in Five European Countries

Littler, the world’s largest employment and labor law practice representing management, made itself even larger with the addition of CLINT, a leading labor and employment law boutique in the Netherlands. The addition of the firm to their global platform also gives Littler entrance to another European country, putting them in five European countries now as well as in North and South America. Littler now has over 1,500 attorneys in 80 offices and 18 countries.

Co-managing directors Tom Bender and Jeremy Roth said in a joint statement, “We are excited to further expand our European presence to the Netherlands and to combine forces with CLINT, a firm that is well-respected for providing companies with exceptional counsel on complex labor and employment matters. This addition continues our successful global expansion strategy, having already established a presence in Europe’s largest economies, and will directly benefit Dutch and multinational organizations operating across the continent.”

CLINT was founded by partners Dennis Veldhuizen, Wouter Engelsman and Eric van Dam. They have eight labor and employment lawyers in Amsterdam. They counsel clients on human resources and employment law matters regarding things like due diligence, labor relations, day-one readiness support negotiations, and post-merger integration.

Veldhuizen said, “Joining Littler’s global platform and leveraging the firm’s international reputation, commitment to outstanding client service, and technological resources will further differentiate our capabilities for local and multinational corporations. Our experience in Dutch labor and employment matters, coupled with Littler’s vast resources and capabilities across the globe, will provide significant value to our collective clients.”

Amsterdam-based Littler shareholder Stephen Swinkels added, “Combining with Clint is a key step forward for the firm’s international strategy, and provides our clients with access to lawyers in yet another of Europe’s most robust economies. Together with our other European outposts in France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom, the addition of the Netherlands will nicely complement our services to employers operating in Europe and around the world.”
