Introduction
Sjöcrona • Van Stigt is, with its two offices, the largest firm of criminal defence lawyers (advocaten) in the Netherlands solely dedicated to advice and litigation in criminal cases. Our advocates combine the functions that in Anglo-Saxon systems are performed by solicitors and barristers.
As specialists in our field we render efficient legal assistance to the corporate world and members of the general public. Thus, we have built up an excellent national and international reputation. The Legal 500 for Europe, Middle East & Africa (2008) describes our firm as follows: Sjöcrona Van Stigt is the largest specialist criminal defence firm in the Netherlands and advises private clients and national and multinational corporations on fraud and white-collar crime issues. Jan Sjöcrona is widely acknowledged as a 'leading expert'. The team recently expanded with the hire of a number of new associates. Arthur van Stigt is praised for his fiscal, economic and environmental crime expertise.
Our approach is both juridically in-depth and aimed at problem solving. We exercise our speciality with due regard for the highest standards in professional skills and ethics.
