Career
Florence is a partner in Linklaters’ Litigation, Arbitration, and Investigations (LAI) practice, active in commercial and criminal matters, including market practices and consumer protection, business crime, commercial relationships, image and reputation matters, and a number of regulatory matters. She advises clients active in a variety of sectors, including the tech, financial and retail sectors.
She has developed considerable expertise in collective redress actions, including advising on the defence in two of the few class actions in Belgium. Florence is well versed in the Collective Redress Directive and in the Belgian proceedings adopted on that basis. She also advises on specific (EU) regulatory matters affecting businesses, including AML. This also leads her to advise clients in the process of setting up compliance programs.
She counsels clients in managing crises in the context of administrative, criminal and internal investigations.
Florence has been included in the “Thomson Reuters Stand-out Lawyers” database, following independent nominations by her clients.
Florence acts as Knowledge & Learning Partner for Belgium and is an active promoter of diversity and inclusion in the firm, including by supporting young mothers.
