From high-stakes litigation to regulatory and corporate structuring, BEST Advocaten delivers sharp, results-driven legal support to protect your position.

At BEST, we provide comprehensive legal services to both large and small companies, helping them identify and manage potential legal risks.

We advise on all areas of civil law relevant to businesses. Our team regularly acts as local counsel for multinational companies, supporting them with mergers, acquisitions, and the establishment of branches or subsidiaries in Suriname. We also provide guidance on corporate governance, financial regulatory law, and administrative law.

In our litigation practice, we assist companies with contractual disputes, corporate law matters, statutory liability cases, and labor-related proceedings. Our cases often involve complex legal issues with significant financial implications.

About Us

Our focus on businesses enables us to quickly get to the heart of legal issues, take clear positions, and provide specific advice. We draw from extensive experience in advising management boards, supervisory boards, and shareholders of companies of all sizes.

We often act as local counsel for multinational companies operating in Suriname, supporting acquisitions, mergers, and the creation of branches or subsidiaries. After helping foreign clients establish themselves in Suriname, we stay involved with matters related to governance, corporate structure, commercial agreements, labor law, and other business-related legal concerns.

Companies benefit greatly from clear, practical legal advice. You can trust us to have your best interests in mind. We offer clear solutions and alternatives to help you make well-informed decisions.

Our clients include leading Surinamese and international companies, including financial institutions, pension funds, regulatory entities, and multinational corporations.

We not only represent companies in litigation but also regularly act on behalf of minority shareholders in disputes with their company or beneficiaries of an estate involving corporate shares or private assets held through legal structures or corporate entities.

We have extensive arbitration experience in Suriname, both as arbitrators and as legal counsel for parties involved in arbitration proceedings.
