About Valioso Legal Consultancy

More than 20 years of experience in legal services

Natascha Zuiderwijk

After studying Dutch Law (private and international law) in Rotterdam and Tallahassee, Florida, USA, and completing the Education Program Legal Profession, I started my career in 2001 as a lawyer (and later also as a Liquidator) at Simmons & Simmons in Rotterdam in the Commercial Litigation Department. In 2009, I switched to the corporate world, working as a Senior Legal Counsel at the international software company Unit4. After working as a Senior Legal Counsel for 14.5 years, it is now time for me to continue independently through Valioso Legal Consultancy.

Strong in-house counsel!

I can really recommend Natascha. I have worked with her over ten years, dealing with intellectual property and advertising matters. She is a strong inhouse counsel, very knowledgeable in also a broad array of legal areas, a sharp mind, but at the same time very pragmatic. To outside counsel she will ask the right questions, without duplicating the work and thus ensuring efficiency for the company. She is really someone to build on, steadfast and has the heart in the right place. Although she sees the bigger picture, she still has attention for the right and relevant details, either from the legal or the personal end.

She has a laser focus on legal issues

I would absolutely recommend Natascha as legal counsel to any organization. She has laser focus on legal issues and a very commercial focus, which allows the business to facilitate quick and compliant decisions. Throughout her time at Unit4 she has taken ownership of many projects and delivered them to completion under her own initiative. She is hugely personable, able to communicate to all levels in a straightforward and understandable way, and just really good fun to work with!

For every single project she always has found a solution

I had the privilege to work on many projects with Natascha throughout my time at Unit4. She is really skillful as she has a unique ability to perfectly balance between the commercial requirements and protecting the vendor legal requirements. For every single project she always has found a solution. She does want sales people to be prepared and think along too and will not accept if you throw a draft agreement over the fence. Apart from her professionalism it is also really great and easy to work with her. I can highly recommend Natascha!

A very experienced, loyal and hands-on in-house counsel!

Without a doubt, I can recommend Natascha. I have worked with her for around 10 years on IT contracts and IT disputes. I got to know Natascha as a very experienced, loyal and hands-on in-house counsel. She is a very tough negotiator, but always with an open mind and a pragmatic approach. More importantly, she has the heart in the right place. For an outside counsel it is a pleasure to work with her.

Thank you!

I had the pleasure of working with Natascha at Unit4. She was a great, trustful “can do” colleague, always open to help and support at the most detailed level. Great work ethics and personality, you truly understand the business and the processes beyond both internally and externally. THANK YOU!

A particularly conscientious, highly analytical colleague

Over the past 10 years, I have worked with Natascha on numerous European tenders. During that time, I got to know Natascha as a particularly conscientious, highly analytical colleague who is focused on both clients and results. Like no other, she is able to strike the right balance between legal risks and commercial interests. In doing so, she has been instrumental in the success of many of the cases she has worked on with me and other sales colleagues! In addition, I have greatly appreciated her personality, collegiality and commitment. To me, she is the ultimate example of a colleague I enjoy working with!
