I advise clients in a variety of tax matters and have developed in-depth expertise regarding real estate transactions, investment and financing structures and tax incentives. I have a particular focus on businesses that are active in the financial, real estate, energy, and life sciences sector.
Next to said advisory services, I regularly assist clients in tax disputes at both the administrative and judicial stage, as well as with requests for advance tax rulings.
Additionally, I am also part of the criminal tax law unit, which assists clients who are involved in criminal matters, such as money laundering, tax fraud, corruption, abuse of corporate assets, insider trading. Such assistance covers both advisory and representation in criminal proceedings.
Outside of my professional role, I am also active in the academic field since I have been working as a teaching assistant within the Institute of Tax Law of the KU Leuven for several years. In this context, I take on various teaching assignments and I am regularly involved in publications on different tax topics.
I hold a Master's degree in Law from the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven), as well as a Specialized Master's degree in Tax Law from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB).
Before joining Fieldfisher, I gained extensive experience regarding various taxation matters within the tax department of another international law firm and a Big Four firm, both based in Brussels.
I am a member of the Dutch Order of the Brussels Bar since September 2016.
I am a native Dutch speaker, and I am fluent in French and English.
