About Rutger
Rutger was born in Amsterdam, Holland. When he was 5, his parents moved to Chicago, and several years later, to Houston. Rut's dad was a scientist and Rutger grew up in a science-filled household in Houston. He went to Rice University in Houston and studied architecture and art. After graduation, he moved to California and worked for a number of years for management consultants. One of his jobs took him to Hewlett-Packard, where for the next 4 years he worked for both HP's litigation section, and for HP's senior finance and credit attorney, the first female lawyer at HP. She encouraged Rutger to go to law school, and in 1997 he entered Santa Clara University School of Law.
While there, Rutger developed a taste for Plaintiffs employment law work as a law student volunteer at the East San Jose Community Law Center. He helped to represent clients in sex harassment cases and wage and hour class claims. After graduating in 2000, Rutger passed the bar and practiced employment law for clients ranging from store clerks to high profile corporate executives. These cases involved discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage and hour violations and whistleblower complaints.
Rutger is a member of the California State Bar Employment Section, and the Santa Clara County Bar Association.
Rutger is married and has two children, each age six. Rut loves road biking (the kind without the motor) and surfing.
