Arent van Gent

As an associate in both our Dispute Resolution Group and Commercial Contracts Group in the Hague, I particularly focus myself on complex commercial litigation and contracts, and especially enjoy working on sports related legal issues.

Before joining Bird & Bird I was an associate at one of the Netherlands' biggest law firms and also worked as in-house counsel at a major company.

Before becoming an attorney, I served as an Officer with the Royal Netherlands Navy and I still hold a commission as a Lieutenant (JG), Royal Netherlands Naval Reserve.

• I mainly work on commercial contracts such as procurement contracts, consumer contracts etc. I also am highly experienced in resolving complex litigation regarding liability: both contractual and extracontractual.
