A rare feature of Simont Braun is that two of our partners are admitted to the bar of the Belgian Supreme Court (Cour de Cassation/Hof van Cassatie): Paul Alain Foriers and Caroline De Baets. Our lawyers also have longstanding expertise in proceedings before the Council of State (administrative supreme court) and the Constitutional Court.
Simont Braun stands out thanks to its breadth of experience before supranational courts, such as the Benelux Court and the European Court of Justice. Our litigators are used to handling cases combining cross-border aspects and/or international proceedings.
We also handled one of the first major class actions in Belgium (Deminor – Fortis dismantling).
