Our dedication to and focus on the life sciences and healthcare industries has resulted in a broad recognition as go-to full-service advisor in Belgium, the Netherlands and
Luxembourg - the Benelux – in the life sciences and healthcare industry; from top notch regulatory advice, to advising on venture capital rounds, IPOs and the most complex Corporate M&A deals, financings, restructurings, and representing clients in high end IP and product liability litigation.
Other services include advice on sector specific competition law issues, advertising regulations, data protection, insurance policies and government affairs. We also assist our life sciences clients on a broad range of areas of expertise relevant to their business, including employment law and tax law. Of course, where needed, we also represent them before the courts in the Benelux.
