Law Firm of the Year Belgium
Firm Profile
Lorenz is an international law firm with offices in Brussels, Bishkek and Geneva established by dynamic and career-building lawyers that gained experience with internationally renowned law firms. Lorenz offers local and international clients legal services in a wide array of Belgian and international business law matters.
The mission of the firm is to serve an international clientele, with an outstanding quality price proposition and with the added value of a personalised service and around-the clock availability.
Lorenz has a unique approach to handling clients’ projects. Due to the absence of formal departments within the organisational structure of Lorenz, we are able to customise inter-disciplinary teams to match the needs of our clients.
Whatever the issue is, our priority is to provide our clients with pragmatic solutions that enable them to achieve their strategic business goals. Therefore, we do not write lengthy and academic legal opinions unless this is specifically required. We try to provide legible and to-the-point, practical and business-oriented advice.
