The lawyer who understands
how your business works.

The founder of Atlas Legal brings 20 years of experience as a commercial lawyer and Head of Legal within complex international organizations. We know what it is like to receive legal advice — and why it is so often impractical.

We believe it is essential to get to know your business from the inside out, ensuring that every piece of advice aligns with your company's operations and goals.

Most lawyers provide advice from the outside looking in. Atlas Legal has operated from the inside three times over — and that changes every piece of advice we give.

Background

The story behind the firm.

Following their legal training, the Atlas Legal team built an extensive international career at renowned law firms (Clifford Chance and Hogan Lovells) and as lead legal counsel (General Counsel / Head of Legal) for international companies in both the Netherlands and Singapore.
At Atlas Legal, sound legal advice starts with understanding how your business works — not just the legal text. That is the value of in-house experience. You don't work as an external advisor, but as part of the organization: as part of the management team, alongside finance, alongside operations. Jointly responsible for the outcome and the success of the company.
Atlas Legal was founded on the belief that legal advice is better when it aligns with how businesses actually operate. Practical, direct, and always with an eye for commercial reality.

Approach

What sets us apart

Three principles that define every piece of advice, every review, and every conversation with Atlas Legal.
1.

Commercial and legal.

Legal advice is only valuable when it aligns with your commercial goals. Atlas Legal provides counsel from both perspectives—legal risks and business reality.
2.

Direct and to the point.

No long memos when a clear answer will do. You get plain language, concrete options, and a recommendation — so you can make a decision.
2.

Modern and personal.

Atlas Legal uses AI-assisted contract analysis for faster, more thorough reviews. However, every piece of advice is personally reviewed, signed, and explained by the handling attorney.
Our team

The people behind Atlas Legal.
