All Dutch law firms are required to comply with the Dutch Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Act (Wwft). In this context, Brantjes Advocaten has implemented the guidelines of the Wwft in its practice.
This means that our lawyers are, in certain cases, obliged to further identify the client. This is the case when legal assistance or advice is provided regarding the purchase or sale of real estate, the management of money, securities, or other assets, the incorporation or management of companies or other similar legal entities, the buying or selling or taking over of businesses, activities in the field of taxation, or acting on behalf of a client in any financial or real estate transaction (Article 1, paragraph 1, subparagraph a, under 12° Wwft).
In such cases, Brantjes Advocaten may not advise or assist its client until the client has been sufficiently identified. If you have any questions about the Wwft, please contact the attorney handling your case at Brantjes Advocaten.
