About Norton Rose Fulbright

In their own words

About the company & team

The teams are composed relatively small, meaning you work closely in a team environment and with other practice groups. On one hand, you experience the daily benefits of the international network and the opportunities that come with it; on the other hand, the teams are composed relatively compactly. As a result, lines of communication are short and individual input and independence are highly valued. With us, you find the best of both worlds: responsibility in complex, cross-border matters, with the atmosphere and conviviality of a medium-sized office.

In Amsterdam, you can start in one of the following sections:

  • Banking & Finance
  • Corporate M&A
  • Dispute Resolution & Litigation
  • Employment
  • Energy
  • Financial Services
  • Global Cybersecurity & Privacy
  • Notarial Services
  • Projects (infrastructure)
  • Regulatory, Compliance & Investigations
  • Tax
