A two-partner, five fee-earner team has split from Dutch law firm Nauta Dutilh to set up a new private client boutique, according to reports in the local media. The name of the new firm has yet to be announced. According to the reports, the split has been described as entirely amicable, with Nauta committing to refer its private client work to the new boutique. One of the two partners, Loes Gijbels, is particularly well known in the Netherlands and has been recommended by clients such as Elsevier and KSU for her private client expertise. The full firm will feature Gijbels, fellow partner Carla Smeets, and assistants Wendy van der Stroom-Willemsen, Julia Veldkamp and Paul de Gier.
