Rutger Kleemans has an in-depth understanding of EU enforcement law. He is very sharp, and from a legal perspective he is perfect.
Rutger Kleemans has a can-do mentality that has resulted in positive decisions that would not have been imaginable at the start of the case.
What distinguishes him is how he communicates. He is very swift in pinpointing the main point of conversations, even in technical matters. I am always amazed by how well he explains issues to clients.
Rutger Kleemans is a quick thinker and is quick on his feet. He is also very good in client interactions. He presents things well and is goal-oriented.
Rutger Kleemans is an excellent lawyer and a pleasure to work with.
