Melvin van Tiel

Attorney at law

Melvin joined Delissen Martens in 2017 and is associated with the cassation and litigation law sections.

Expertise

Melvin mainly focuses on cases in the field of general contract law, liability law and litigation law. He has also built up the necessary expertise in copyright and trademark law, as well as in the protection of trade names.

Approach

Melvin is a cassation lawyer and represents clients in civil litigation from the first instance to the Supreme Court. Thanks to his in-depth knowledge of cassation techniques and (appellate) procedural law, he is regularly called upon to assist in appellate proceedings. Melvin's clients include lawyers, entrepreneurs and individuals.

Melvin's approach is characterized by his strategic and anticipatory thinking and his ability to quickly get to the heart of a legal problem. This enables him to make a difference and work toward an effective resolution, both in and out of court.

Melvin also distinguishes himself by focusing not only on the legal content, but also on the aftercare: "As an attorney, I am committed to my clients. I look beyond the legal issue. For example, I advise my clients on how to improve their business operations or how to avoid similar disputes in the future. That is appreciated."
