Natalie joined Banning on 1 May 2021 in the role of legal assistant. In this role, she is responsible for supporting the Corporate Law team of Henk Brat in the Amsterdam office.

Natalie has worked in the legal field since 1995 (i.a. Baker & McKenzie, Lexence, DLA Piper and Vestius) and has a long standing working relationship with Henk Brat and Paul Hendriks. She has completed various legal courses and workshops. Because of her extensive experience and knowledge of the legal practice, she is able to support the Corporate Law team in a broad sense, both practically and substantively. Natalie considers the dynamics of the Corporate Law practice, client contact and working in a close team to be particularly valuable aspects of her work. As interim team coordinator at DLA Piper, Natalie supervised the support staff of the Corporate department and was the connecting link between the support staff, lawyers/partners and HR. This connecting role is one that suits her very well as a person.

Natalie is client-focused, hands-on, driven, loyal and committed.
