Iris Langenhuizen

Since February 2025, Iris has been working at Holla legal & tax, where she focuses on strengthening the insolvency and commercial litigation practice. She has extensive experience in advising and litigating on matters related to insolvency law, (cross-border) commercial contracts, and (director’s) liability issues.


As a lawyer, Iris is known for her no-nonsense approach and ability to bring clarity to complex situations. Her clients appreciate her openness and transparent communication about what does and does not work. Her previous role as a trustee in bankruptcies has given her valuable insight into the various interests and parties involved. Additionally, her time as a lawyer in Shanghai (China) taught her to listen attentively and understand cultural nuances, further enhancing her advisory skills.


Outside of her professional life, Iris is an avid traveler who enjoys exploring new cultures and destinations. Whether navigating the unknown or tackling complex legal challenges, she approaches every situation with curiosity and determination.
