Business law, practised seriously.

Counsel through every stage of an enterprise's life - from incorporation to exit - across Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, and Morocco.

A CONCISE APPROACH

Our business law practice is organised around the life of the company. Each area is led by a practitioner with deep jurisdictional expertise; complex matters are handled in coordination across the network.

Corporate & Commercial

Incorporation, shareholder agreements, share transfers, joint ventures, governance, and the day-to-day legal life of trading companies.

Pre-litigation & Settlement

Negotiation of settlements, structured resolution of commercial disputes, and the avoidance of litigation where possible.

Contracts

Pre-contractual negotiation, drafting, review, and advisory through the execution of commercial agreements.

Litigation Coordination

Where litigation is necessary, we coordinate with a network of specialist litigators in each jurisdiction.

Tax

Tax structuring of transactions and operations, cross-border tax efficiency, and ongoing tax counsel for companies and their owners.

White-collar & Regulatory

Where business matters give rise to criminal or regulatory exposure — financial crime, competition, sanctions, executive criminal defence — we coordinate with a network of specialist counsel in each jurisdiction.

Intellectual Property

Trademark filings, IP portfolio management, licensing, and franchise structuring.

JURISDICTIONS

Adelphe practices directly in Belgium and coordinates work across the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, and Morocco. Each jurisdiction is covered by a partner or specialist collaborator native to its legal system. We do not refer clients to firms we do not know.
