Vanessa Liem

After an intermediate step as an in-house counsel at a large Dutch multinational and various social assignments, Vanessa returned to the private practice at the end of 2018. She is an expert on investigations, business conduct / compliance, Speak Up matters and ESG. In recent years, she has led a large number of complex and sensitive investigations.

Vanessa’s national and international experiences both in and out of the legal profession make her a unique lawyer to whom multinationals, NGOs and public and semi-public organisations turn when their reputation is at stake. Be it integrity reports or (internal) investigations into bribery, greenwashing, misbehaviour or human rights violations; Vanessa accelerates in challenging and complex situations where the pressure and stakes are high. With her analytical and strategical strength, and her dedication and sensitivity, Vanessa guides (supervisory) board and management through crisis situations. With an eye for all interests, she manages to achieve the intended goal in a personal, driven and professional manner. Working with others jointly and on the basis of trust are key for her.
