Solution oriented employment- and commercial law attorney.
I absolutely love adding value to my clients' businesses by applying a very commercial view on legal issues. In my opinion, an attorney's job is to find solutions and enablers for a client's business, rather than just saying 'no' and writing long legal memorandums (which no-one reads or understands anyway).
I believe that all communication is to be on the recipients' terms. I have been told I have a knack for adjusting my communication to the effect that my messages and my advise comes across clearly, whether it be in a meeting with two young start-up guys, the board room of a global business, as a teacher or public speaker, or in the courtroom as a litigator.
My experiences from being deployed as an army officer to conflict zones in the Middle East has enabled me to keep performing well even under a high degree of external pressure. In addition, it has shown me just how dependant any organisation is of a strong team spirit and true cooperation.
