Maartje (M.H.M.) van Asten, lawyer

Enthusiasm, drive and a no-nonsense mentality: this is what describes me and my working method. It’s a familiar approach for all the clients I work with. No matter where they work: in healthcare, the ICT sector or in the travel industry.

I have extensive experience of employment law. It’s an area in which new and interesting questions continually emerge, because the relevant legislation and regulations aren’t set in stone. Which is why I advise and support my clients in many different ways. My work covers such areas as employment contracts and reorganisations, civil service law and employee participation law.

So how do I ensure that I stay energetic alongside my work? By taking a run through the fields of Holland. Nothing is more effective in helping achieve a better balance!
