This enables the NCC to deal with IP cases which require a high level of specialist expertise. Due to the international nature of many IP cases and clients, the ability to litigate in the English language allows for direct interaction between parties, their lawyers and the court. This in turn will enable the court to better understand parties’ interests and will reduce translation costs. </span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Read our <a href="/SiteCollectionDocuments/factsheet-netherlands-commercial-court-and-intellectual-property.pdf" title="factsheet-netherlands-commercial-court-and-intellectual-property.pdf">factsheet on NCC and Intellectual Property <span class="rnl-file-properties">(pdf, 576.6 KB)</span></a>for more information.</span></div><div><br><br></div><p><br></p> | | | | | |

One of the reasons for this lies in a general perception that English contract law emphasises freedom of contract and business certainty. Dutch law, by contrast, is sometimes alleged purported to be dominated by the more nebulous concept of good faith (“reasonableness and fairness") and hence to offer lesser certainty.
