Drawing upon substantive expertise across many other practice groups throughout its full-service offering, the ‘experienced and pragmatic’ team at Loyens & Loeff provides ‘tremendous legal acumen and great strategic sense’ to clients bringing or defending cases across myriad commercial litigation and international arbitration matters. Véronique Hoffeld has the legal knowledge and strategic and procedural sense to effectively manage cases for large multinational corporates and financial services, from pre-litigation through to hearings and enforcement of judgments. Henri Dupong is also a key member of the team, as a result of his work representing high-net-worth individuals and banks across a range of corporate and white-collar matters.

Leveraging the firm’s broader corporate, investment management and tax capabilities, Loyens & Loeff is well-positioned to advise funds across a wide spectrum of IP and IT matters, including on due diligence regarding IP-rich targets, GDPR compliance and trade mark prosecution and licensing agreements. Drawing upon her broad litigation smarts, team head Véronique Hoffeld has particular expertise advising on multi-jurisdictional IP disputes, while senior associate Emilia Fronczak provides assistance in data protection matters.

Loyens & Loeff provides a ‘high-quality level of work’ to investors and developers on the acquisition and disposal of commercial real estate assets, as well as advice on forward-funding and forward-commitment transactions, and on real estate management issues. Recently promoted to partner, Julien Lecler is gaining a strong reputation in the market, on both Luxembourg and Belgian mandates, as a result of his ‘business-oriented and deal-making’ attributes. Audrey Jarreton has enhanced the firm’s real estate finance capabilities since joining from Stibbe in January 2023, and both she and banking and finance head Anne-Marie Nicolas have handled work for lenders and borrowers on new money and refinancing transactions in the sector.
