Real Estate

I am a partner in the Brussels office and lead the Belgian Real Estate practice.

I have over 20 years of experience working for (local and international) clients in various areas of the real estate market (notably offices, retail, hotels & leisure, residential and industrial properties).

My practice encompasses all aspects of real estate law, including real estate (sales, long-term leases, building rights, usufructs, leasing) and corporate real estate transactions, sale-and-leaseback operations, development projects, all types of leases (with a particular expertise in offices and retail leases) and construction contracts.

Besides assisting clients (owners, users, retailers, developers, contractors and investors) in real estate transactions, advising clients on complex real estate issues, I also handle real estate disputes (i.e. disputes involving RE acquisitions, sales, leases, expropriations, easements, co-ownership, etc.) and construction-related disputes.

I have also gained specific expertise in public-private partnership (PPP) transactions as well as in the hotel sector (advising clients notably on hotel management / franchise agreements) and in commercial contracts (such as franchise agreements and other distribution agreements).
