Liedekerke
Law Practice
Liedekerke is a Belgian independent law firm recognised for its leadership and expertise.
About us
Liedekerke is one of Belgium’s foremost business law firms. Based in Brussels, with a London representative office since November 2007, and independent since its creation in 1965, the firm has established an international reputation upon a unique experience and unchallenged expertise, which it has acquired in all areas of business law. Liedekerke’s clients are active in a broad range of industries, to which it offers first-rate, creative and personalized full-service advice. The firm has a strong advisory practice based on sector expertise and an in-depth knowledge of Belgian and European law. In addition, and as an essential complement to its advisory activities, it represents clients in complex litigation before national, European and international courts, both judicial and arbitral, the Court of Cassation, the Council of State and the Belgian Constitutional Courts. With over 120 lawyers, including 29 partners, Liedekerke is commonly recognized for its ability to quickly mobilize competent, flexible and multidisciplinary teams anywhere. Liedekerke opened its London office in 2007 as a direct response to a growing involvement in cross-border transactions and increasing demand for international coverage from its clients. It remains the only Belgian law firm in London. In 2014, “Liedekerke DRC SASU” has been opened as a subsidiary in Kinshasa to enhance our capability to provide local legal support and operational assistance to companies and other stakeholders active across Francophone Africa and the DRC in particular. In May 2019, following the success of its Kinshasa subsidiary, Liedekerke opened a new office in Kigali (Rwanda) to complement its current Africa offering. The launch of a second office in Africa is a logical next step in implementing the firm’s international strategy. Our local presence in Kigali is adding value to the Belgian firm’s offering and allow the firm to better serve its clients active in the region.

Liedekerke reposted this
Albert Knigge, Rosalie Becker and Luce Mulder investigated the current and future class action developments in Belgium in collaboration with Sarah van den Brande, Jean Pierre Kesteloot and Olivier Vanden Berghe from Liedekerke . In Belgium, the Representative Actions Directive (RAD) is transposed by the New Collective Redress Act, published on 31 May 2024. This Act applies to class actions brought from 10 June 2024 and broadens the scope of the existing class action regime. Class actions can be brought by qualified entities, including ad hoc entities, in the interests of consumers and SMEs. Class members must, in general, opt in within four months after the ruling of redress. Third party litigation funding, while allowed, remains unattractive due to the rules on legal costs and the delayed opt-in mechanism. Given these factors, a surge in popularity for class actions in Belgium is not expected. In October, we are holding an interactive seminar where the main results of this research will be presented. Read more about this event on our website and pre-order the Houthoff Class Action Survey 2024: https://lnkd.in/dNXcxCcj If you have any questions about class actions or the survey, please feel free to contact Albert Knigge, Isabella Wijnberg, Rick Cornelissen, Paul Sluijter, Lucas Dröge, Diederik van der Kooij or Elselique Hoogervorst.

When it comes to Aviation financing and leasing, the Chambers and Partners guide is a staple of the industry. Not to be missed, it offers a comprehensive overview of the legal aspects involved in the questions of finances in aviation in 37 jurisdictions. In this year's edition, the entry for Rwanda was written by our LGL lawyers Jean Pierre Kesteloot, Julien Degroof and Penina Ngabire, LLB, DLP, LLM Candidate. Though an overview, they do give a quite in-depth understanding of the situation in Rwanda. Our participation in the Chambers and Partners guide is more proof of the internationally recognised competency of our lawyers, and their deep knowledge of the local legal landscape.
