What we do

Intellectual Property (IP)
BG.legal is a leader in the field of intellectual property. BG.legal has specialist knowledge about the protection, exploitation, and optimisation of intellectual property. With specialisations in co-development agreements, trademark registration and thorough assessment of advertising campaigns, among other things, we strive to support and protect your innovation.

Employment law
We advise on all legal aspects in the relationship between employers and employees. From drafting agreements (for employees, trainees, or self-employed professionals) to resolving disputes. Think of issues concerning illness, performance, or employee participation. We can also advise and assist you in issues where special employment law rules apply, such as in the case of a statutory director or highly skilled migrants.

Privacy law
There have been many developments in the field of privacy in recent years. BG.legal can help you with various privacy issues. We offer expert advice and solutions to help your company become and stay privacy compliant.

Health law
The laws surrounding the healthcare industry are complex. For example, navigating the Medical Device Regulation is a challenge for many organisations. Whether it is clinical trials, drug regulation or medical devices, we are ready to support and advise your company on issues surrounding complex European and national legislation.

Corporate law
Purchasing or selling a business is often a comprehensive and multi-faceted process. We regularly assist such processes, on behalf of both purchasers and sellers. We can also provide legal support in setting up corporate structures (including shareholder and management agreements), financing rounds and employee participation (e.g., through SAR arrangements). Our lawyers can also assist you with more contract-related legal matters such as drafting or reviewing contracts and general terms and conditions.

Our main office is located in 's-Hertogenbosch, and we have a branch office in Eindhoven at the Brainport Industries Campus as well as in Tilburg. Every Thursday, a team from BG.legal works at our Pivot Park location in Oss. Companies located on Pivot Park can ask us legal questions. These can be questions about IP, pharmaceutical law, or contracts as well as questions about mergers and acquisitions, employment law, etc.
