Call Marc
Marc is a cassation lawyer, knowledge management partner and head of the scientific office. He has extensive knowledge in the field of general (national and international) contract and property law, insolvency law and (international) civil procedural law.
Marc is mainly engaged by lawyers from other firms to advise on and conduct cassation proceedings and preliminary ruling proceedings. Private individuals also know where to find Marc for their cassation cases. Marc also advises lawyers (“Lawyers Lawyer”) in conducting appeal proceedings (with a view to a possible cassation procedure). Even as a cassation lawyer, he is first and foremost a lawyer and not a legal theorist. However, analytical skills and scientific knowledge are necessary at cassation level and serve to optimally represent the interests of the client before the highest civil court (Supreme Court).
An eye for the necessary detail, but without losing sight of the big picture and the essence are characteristic of Marc.
