Vision of our office
Our name, Dekens Aytemur strafrechtadvocaten, says it already: we are a law firm in Amsterdam that is specialized in criminal law. We handle criminal cases in all shapes and sizes. No case is too big or too small. We have seen everything, don’t find anything crazy or weird and don’t shy away from anything.
We want to contribute to a more human dimension in criminal law and do more than our best to get the most out of a case.
If we have to describe ourselves, Nancy Dekens is the file tiger who prefers to be completely absorbed in a large case, becomes one with the file and does not overlook anything, while Semra Aytemur is the free bird who also feels very much at home among the small cases and knows how to notice and tell a good story in every case. Actually, we are Yin and Yang. We complement each other well.
Core values
Dekens Aytemur strafrechtadvocaten stands for the following core values:
Quality. We limit ourselves to one area of law: criminal law. We work with great legal support and regularly attend courses and meetings inside and outside the office to keep our quality up to date.
Knowledge. Our firm was founded in 2024, but together we have been working in criminal law for more than 40 years. Our experience means that we have the knowledge to handle any case.
Decisiveness. We quickly get to the heart of a case, determine a strategy together and then we fight for your defence. We know what to do and when to do it. We go the extra mile. And even further than that.
Honesty. We don’t come up with pretty stories, but with the truth. And we do that in plain language. We believe it is important that our clients understand what we do and why we do it. This is how we get the trust of our clients, which is extremely valuable and necessary for us.
Passion. We’ve chosen this profession from our hearts. This is reflected in our enthusiasm for every case, over and over again. Putting together complicated legal puzzles, reading meters of files; we do it with the same drive.
Support. We understand better than anyone all the interests that can play a role in a case and how much this can effect your life. We understand that during detention problems arise for those left behind. We pay attention to this and make time for it.
Accessibility. We work during office hours, but we are always available during emergency situations (via WhatsApp, by phone or by e-mail). With us, you don’t have to deal with a secretary who can only accept a callback. Our mobile phone numbers are easy to find, just like our e-mail addresses.
