Francien studied at the Erasmus University of Rotterdam. In 1997, she joined NautaDutilh, where she was involved in general litigation. Since July 2001, she has been working for Leijnse Artz, becoming a partner in the firm in January 2005. Francien specialises in financial and economic law and its administrative and criminal enforcement (including financial legislation, environmental law, working conditions legislation, commodities law, privacy law, and tax and customs laws). She gives advice on compliance issues and assists companies and managing directors in fraud cases and administrative or criminal proceedings, often working together with specialist investigators and accountants. She has also followed a postgraduate university course in forensic auditing, which focuses on business economics, auditing techniques, reporting skills and organisation theory. As a result of her special knowledge and experience, she is mainly active, as far as company law is concerned, in cases of directors' and officers' liability, inquiry proceedings, and disputes involving financial and organisational issues. Francien regularly writes for professional journals.
