Welcome Philippe & Partners West-Flanders

We are pleased to inform you that as of September 1, 2022, Dirk Clarysse and his team, lawyers at the bar of West Flanders, will join our firm.

Our colleagues are mainly specialized in commercial law and in mergers and acquisitions (M&A). As such, they provide legal advice and litigation support to companies at all stages of their existence, from incorporation to the transfer or termination of the business. Last year, Dirk and his team also published a book dedicated to the transfer of companies, with a practical dimension for both the seller and the buyer.

The creation of a Philippe & Partners’ West-Flanders office generates new synergies and is fully in line with our desire to be locally rooted.

Denis PHILIPPE: We are delighted to welcome Dirk Clarysse. For many years, I have been able to appreciate his great qualities as a lawyer. His presence in Flanders, his reputation and his skills in corporate law in particular, are strategic assets for our firm. We share the same commitment to ethics and humanism. We are all reactive and proactive. Our firm is both close to the people through our presence in the different Belgian regions and also present internationally through our multilingual offices in Luxembourg, Paris, Dusseldorf and London. Great challenges and opportunities await us!

Dirk CLARYSSE: I have known Denis for over 20 years. In the past, we were in the same firm, Denis as a partner and I as a trainee. From now on, we are joining forces! Our teams share common values: quality, of course, but also availability and a personal approach, as well as an ever greater desire to anticipate difficulties. The independence that characterizes both offices is also a shared value that led to the merger of the firms. Everything was in place for this “perfect match”.

Together, we are stronger: more areas of practice, more lawyers, better geographical coverage. More than ever, our motto “Fine Art in Legal Practice” takes on its full meaning!
