Legal Tech at Van Doorne. Working today for tomorrow.
Knowledge & Innovation team
Led by our Teamlead Knowledge & Innovation, our multidisciplinary team of legal tech engineers and privacy and security officers is committed to implementing the latest developments in AI and legal tech on a daily basis.
We are ambitious and leading the way: since January 2025, lawyers Lodewijk Heinsman and Thomas Dasselaar have joined the team as AI & Legal Transformation Advisors. From their dual role, legal and technological, they translate the latest AI innovations directly into concrete solutions. This unique combination of in-depth technical knowledge and years of legal experience ensures that clients benefit from cutting-edge technology, applied with the insight and reliability you expect from us.
In this composition, the Knowledge & Innovation team with technical background and combined legal expertise drives an integrated AI programme. From strategic policy to hands-on implementation of AI tools in legal workflows for our people and clients. We believe that investment in innovation and expertise delivers the best legal advice: forward-looking, reliable and always with our clients’ interests at the forefront.
AI: For tomorrow’s human work
The most important link in successfully deploying technology is people: technology without people is like a piano without a pianist. This is why we ambitiously and massively invest in the development of our employees, regardless of their role or job level. We are convinced that this investment in knowledge and skills makes the difference between AI as a tool and AI as a strategic force.
All our colleagues go through an intensive training programme on (i) the technical foundations of generative AI, (ii) advanced skills to effectively apply, critically assess and optimise AI-generated output, and (iii) proactively recognising and managing risks such as bias, hallucinations and over-reliance on results.
This combination of deep technical knowledge and legal expertise enables us to be at the forefront of the legal industry, advising clients with the most advanced tools and human insight you expect from us.
We keep our staff sharp through internal workshops, hackathons, communication and collaboration with training institutes such as the Law Firm School. Our goal is that clients are always helped by people with the most up-to-date knowledge and skills.
