Pieter Frölich

Pieter has been working in business and insolvency law since 2016 and joined La Gro Geelkerken attorneys as a lawyer and receiver in 2020. Pieter’s practice is all about ironing out legal problems, advising on things such as corporate governance, and settling a wide range of different disputes. When working together with Pieter, transparency and smooth communication come first. Pieter also considers the underlying dynamics and potentially conflicting interests, as he looks for creative and acceptable solutions. In between times, he likes to follow the news, read a book, stretch his legs, and get behind the stove.
