/ Vacancies / Lawyer - Real Estate & Construction Employee – Utrecht
(full-time / minimum 32 hours)
Van Diepen Van der Kroef Advocaten is a large, contemporary firm that has been in business for almost 50 years. With four offices in and around the Randstad and over 75 lawyers, we are among the top 20 in the Netherlands. We handle complex cases for ambitious entrepreneurs – regionally, nationally, and internationally – while maintaining personal contact.
Our strength? A wonderful combination of quality and commitment, both with our clients and with each other. We don't think in limitations, but in possibilities. As supporters of ambition and partners in success, we stand by the entrepreneur: practical, solution-oriented, and with an eye for the person behind the business.
Our core values:
- Quality – strong content, practically applicable
- Personal – attention to the client and to each other, working together with pleasure
- Committed – professional and sincere
- Independent – autonomy in thinking and doing
- Entrepreneurial – seeing and seizing opportunities.

At our other offices, there are also 12 lawyers with this expertise with whom you can always brainstorm and collaborate on cases. You will also work with experienced specialists outside your area of expertise, for example, when matters in a bankruptcy case arise in which you specialize.

We are looking for someone who is strong in content and fits well with our way of working: professional, passionate about the profession, and with an entrepreneurial mindset. Within our firm, you will have a lot of room and freedom, so we are looking for people who are proactive and independent.
