Commercial Law

Running a business not only involves yourself. There are others like your suppliers, customers, not to mention your competitors. This makes that entrepreneurs can’t just do as they please. Suppliers, customers and competitors have rights as well. Aside from complying with the Belgian legislation, businesses must also abide by the European and the international legislation even these days.

Customer and consumer rights have become more stringent than ever. We advise you on how to make sure that you run a successful business with due regard for every conceivable piece of Belgian and international legislation.
