  • ‘Strong local experience and advice.’

  • ‘Dominique Devos has very strong capabilities in local environmental discussions.’

  • ‘A great team, both on Dutch and French speaking side that has a strong knowledge and experience in urban planning and environmental law.’

  • ‘Dominique Devos: Dominique is our go to lawyer for all things environmental law in the Flemish region. He is up to date on recent developments and understands the practical side of implementing technical regulations in our business activities. Moreover, Dominique makes himself available when we urgently need him and provides concise memoranda that are understandable for non-lawyers in the company.

  • 'François Tulkens: he is the equivalent of Dominique on French speaking side. We greatly appreciate his pragmatic approach when faced with complicated regulatory matters. He thinks with the business and in favour of a solid solution rather than a theoretical advice without any specific proposals finetuned to our business. So his help always helps us move forward.’
