Sophie (S.D.I.M.) Stolker

After completing her degree at Leiden University, Sophie entered joined Delissen Martens in January 2014.

Specialist area of legal practice

As a lawyer she is engaged in all aspects of employment law. Sophie usually assists and represents employers, but also employees in divergent employment-law issues, such as reorganisations and restructurings, dismissal processes and disputes on employment conditions.

Her approach

As a lawyer Sophie is committed. 'I attach importance to good personal ties with my clients; this helps to ensure the benefit of the legal assistance provided. I try to achieve this by giving consideration to each case, by being accessible for my clients and by keeping to appointments and arrangements made.'

Sophie’s approach is solution-oriented. 'Through the experience I have gained over the past few years, I am able to get to the heart of the problem quickly. This allows me to draw up a plan of action – always in consultation with my client – and to accomplish appropriate solutions. Wherever possible, I try to find such solutions in an amicable settlement, which often produces better results, is less costly and saves time. That is not always possible, of course; in that case all effort will be aimed at achieving the best possible result for my client.'

That Sophie is very competent in that regard is evidenced by the fact that in 2018 she won the The Hague Moot Court Competition and came second in the National Moot Court Competition.
