About us

Pels Rijcken currently employs about 300 people, 170 of whom work as lawyers and 130 as support staff. Our expertise lies in legal issues of great social relevance. We want to offer our clients a legal compass in a complex, changing society and distinguish ourselves through the quality of our services.


We are the firm of the State Advocate. As a result, the Dutch State is our largest client. We are also there for other clients, such as municipalities, provinces, Dutch water authorities, educational and healthcare institutions and the corporate sector.
