Fleur Onrust

Fleur Onrust is a partner and one of the founders of ENVIR Advocaten. Fleur Onrust worked as an administrative law lawyer at Stibbe for 10 years. Fleur specialises in environmental law, focusing primarily on species protection under the Nature Conservation Act (formerly the Flora and Fauna Act), the Environmental Permitting (General Provisions) Act and planning and zoning law.

In addition, Fleur is often involved in general administrative law matters, in particular subsidy regulations, enforcement issues and administrative procedural law. She also represents clients in (public) healthcare, education and culture matters, where she deals with questions and procedures related to subsidies, permits or other types of government regulation.

Fleur is very much a solution-driven individual, who likes to think outside the box if the solution is not obvious or when others consider the case hopeless. Fleur has broad experience assisting in due diligence investigations and drafting due diligence reports on the relevant administrative and environmental law aspects.
