Wanda van Kerkvoorden is specialised in supervising complex ICT projects and conducting legal proceedings involving ICT disputes. She also advises on and conducts legal proceedings involving ASP/ SaaS, cloud computing, compliance and (open source) software protection.
Wanda likes to work closely with clients, preferably from the beginning of projects, so that possible legal issues can be resolved at an early stage.
