Our Firm

About Keizersgracht Legal

A boutique IP law firm built on quality, depth, and personal attention.

Our Story

Keizersgracht Legal began with a clear belief: that legal work in intellectual property deserves more personal attention than large firms can provide. Erik and Patrick founded this practice with a commitment to quality over quantity.

We chose the name Keizersgracht deliberately. Amsterdam's most prestigious canal represents heritage, trust, and enduring quality—values that define how we practice law.

Today, we remain intentionally small. Two partners. Four legal assistants. One focus: intellectual property law. This structure allows us to provide senior-level attention to every client, every case.

Our Philosophy

01

Quality over volume. We deliberately limit our caseload to ensure each client receives thorough, thoughtful representation.

02

Depth over breadth. IP law is our exclusive practice. We don't dabble in other areas—we excel in one.

03

Relationships over transactions. Many of our clients have been with us for years. We see ourselves as long-term partners in your success.

04

Clarity over jargon. We explain complex legal matters in plain language. You should understand your options fully.

The Keizersgracht Legacy

The Keizersgracht is Amsterdam's grandest canal, lined with 17th-century merchant houses that have stood for centuries. It symbolizes stability, prestige, and Dutch Golden Age prosperity.

For us, it represents something more: a commitment to enduring quality. Like the canal houses that have stood the test of time, we build legal strategies that last.
