Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP further grows its Global Labor & Employment Practice with the strategic addition of Thomas Timmermans as a shareholder in the Amsterdam office. Timmermans will join the firm on August 1, 2019 from Norton Rose Fulbright.

His arrival ties in with the recent expansion of Greenberg Traurig’s Berlin and London offices, as well as the opening of its Milan and Nashville offices.

Timmermans represents local and international clients on a wide range of complex employment law-related matters, including dismissals, restructurings and union and works council relationships to compliance, employee benefits, remuneration and (cross-border) corporate law-related employment matters. He has focused experience in the field of outsourcing/transfer of undertaking and employee representation.

“We are delighted to welcome Thomas to our Amsterdam office,” Cees van Oevelen and Thomas van der Vliet, managing shareholders of the firm’s Amsterdam office, said in a joint statement. “The addition underscores our ambition to strategically grow our office in Amsterdam and across the firm to meet the needs of our clients.”
