They are familiar with preventive as well as curative work (advice, contracts, negotiations, lawsuits).

As a result of his training each jurist should theoretically be able to answer any legal question.

In practice there are areas of expertise that are better known because they are treated more often and because there is more affinity with them.

Experience and expertise certainly play a role, although we do not believe in an overly one-sided expertise, which could lead to not seeing the wood for the trees.

We specialise in:

- business law

Business law has many facets. We step in whenever your company is involved in situations with legal implications.

For example: setting up a business and the choice of legal status, drawing up statutes, shareholder agreements, assistance during general meetings, negotiation of rental or purchase contracts for company premises, checking leasing contracts, staff employment contracts, drafting distribution contracts with agents, conflicts between partners, dismissal of employees, problems with banks and suppliers, debt recovery, sale of business or company shares, etc.

- employment contract law, including problems involving expatriates and staff on secondment

- rent law (commercial rent, as well as office rent and residential rent)

- property law (purchase, sale, co-ownership, usufruct, building and planting rights, annuity if problems arise during construction or renovation of buildings, disputes between clients, contractors, architects and engineers)

- mediation in civil and commercial disputes, i.e., solving conflicts outside the courtroom. It goes without saying that mediation techniques are used in all sorts of cases, where appropriate.

For each case we take the time to meet with the client. If you are new you will notice that besides the sheer legal aspect, we also take an interest in your activities as such. Good understanding of what clients do, how they work and what the customs are in their sector helps us in the efficient follow-up of the case. Thanks to this special attention we become experts in our clients’ fields and not theoretical super scholars in a rather restricted field.

What you do is of real interest to us. It enables us to do our job well.
