About Us

The Legal Practice Register lists the areas of law for which each attorney at law is registered with the Netherlands Bar Association. The Firm uses an office registration model, as recognised by the Netherlands Bar Association. 

For a detailed overview of the firm’s registration under the Legal Practice Register, please refer to our pdf.

The attorneys of Bissessur are insured in accordance with the professional rules of the Netherlands Bar Association (Nederlandse Orde van Advocaten) under a comprehensive professional liability insurance policy that provides worldwide coverage.

Further details regarding the scope and terms of coverage can be found in our Insurance Certificate (pdf).

If you have a concern about an invoice, the specification of services, service quality, or the conduct of any Bissessur lawyer, you may contact our Complaints Officer at any time. We handle complaints under our Office Complaints Procedure. We will acknowledge receipt, seek an effective solution with the responsible lawyer where appropriate, and provide a substantive response within a reasonable period (aiming within four weeks). Complaint handling is confidential and free of charge.

Further details and instructions are set out in our Office Complaints Procedure: English (pdf) / Dutch (pdf).

The Firm does not accept or hold third-party funds and does not maintain a client or escrow account, nor a foundation for third-party funds (stichting derdengelden). Any funds received inadvertently will be returned or transferred to the entitled party without undue delay.

In the event that an attorney of the firm is temporarily unable to perform professional duties, appropriate arrangements have been made to ensure continuity of legal services. In such circumstances, the practice will be continued by Mr. R.S. Ganeshie, attorney-at-law, who will act as substitute where necessary.
