Attorney – Partner
Profile
I am a lawyer since 2013. I started my career at Claeys & Engels (law firm specialised in human resources law), before co-founding Yelaw in 2022.
What defines me:
✔ I advise and defend my clients with energy, enthusiasm and dynamism.
✔ I am pragmatic and solution-oriented. I have particularly developed this skill during several secondments in large companies.
✔ I did most of my studies in Dutch and am therefore perfectly bilingual.
