What Linssen cs Advocaten does

Linssen cs Advocaten is a Dutch law firm (advocatenkantoor) operating as a maatschap (partnership) of natural persons and closed professional corporations, headquartered in a monumental building on Willem II Straat in Tilburg, Netherlands. The firm was founded in 1987 and currently employs approximately 25 people, with a partner bench anchored by PhD-qualified lawyers Hans Menu (joined 1990, partner since 1998) and Jurgen Braspenning, alongside specialists in agricultural law, economic criminal law, cassation at the Supreme Court, administrative/constitutional law, and tenancy law.

The firm serves three defined client segments: agro-food and rural-area clients (primary), private individuals, and regional businesses in the Tilburg/Brabant area. Service lines span contract law, permits and environmental law, expropriation and tenancy (pacht), enforcement and criminal defense, damage claims, debt collection, real estate and construction, hunting law, and GDPR/privacy compliance. The firm publishes legal articles and annotations as a client-acquisition and thought-leadership channel, and offers direct engagement via telephone, email, in-office meetings, or on-location keukentafelgesprekken (kitchen table consultations) suited to its rural agricultural client base.

Commercially, the firm operates a traditional professional-services model, billing clients on hourly rates as specified in engagement letters, plus a 6% office-cost surcharge and VAT, with annual rate adjustments indexed to CBS wage data subject to a 3% minimum increase. The firm holds no external investment, has no parent company or subsidiaries, and is independently operated by its partner attorneys. No revenue, headcount growth, or M&A signals are disclosed in the available data.

Broad incumbents

• Loyens & Loeff:
• Houthoff: Houthoff is a leading Dutch full-service law firm with an Agriculture & Food sector practice advising major Dutch agri-businesses, cooperatives, and food companies. It competes with Linssen cs for higher-end agricultural mandates but serves primarily large corporate clients from a national base, making it a broad incumbent in the same sector.
• AKD N.V. AKD is a large full-service Dutch law firm with a prominent Food & Agri practice that serves clients across the agro-food chain. It overlaps with Linssen cs in agricultural and food-sector legal work, but operates at significantly greater scale with national and international reach, making it a broad incumbent rather than a direct boutique competitor.

Direct peers

It competes directly with Linssen cs in the niche of pacht, environmental, and rural land legal services, and shares a similar boutique-to-mid-market positioning.
• Nysingh advocaten-en-notarissen: Nysingh is a Dutch full-service law firm with a long-established, leading agricultural law practice serving farmers, agribusiness, and rural land owners. It is the most direct competitor to Linssen cs in the agro-food legal niche, with comparable specialization in pacht, environmental permits, and rural land disputes, although it is larger and operates across multiple Dutch regions.
