A boutique firm — each matter, handled personally.
The Ronse Law Firm is an independent boutique built on a simple conviction: every client should be able to speak directly with the attorney handling their file.
A practice forged in contact with the courts.
Founded by Olivier Ronse, the firm was later joined by his son, Vincent Ronse. This family-run, human-scale structure guarantees clients continuous follow-up by a known interlocutor, from the first appointment to enforcement.
Our practice was built in contact with Belgian civil and commercial courts, on matters where the quality of written preparation and procedural mastery are decisive. We believe in clear drafting, in documented strategy, and in sober pleadings.
The firm works closely with a network of fellow lawyers and external experts — notaries, bailiffs, court-appointed experts, accountants, tax advisors and specialised attorneys — which it places at the service of its clients' interests whenever the complexity of a matter requires it.
Today the Ronse Law Firm acts for individuals, self-employed professionals, SMEs and real estate investors throughout French- and Dutch-speaking Belgium, in French, Dutch and English.
Three principles, applied without exception.
Reachable, present, responsive.
Procedural deadlines and negotiation opportunities do not tolerate delayed replies. We commit to quick responses and a direct line with the attorney in charge.
Fees and chances clear from the outset.
Clients are entitled to an honest estimate of the procedural cost and their chances. We issue a written fee agreement and provide regular status updates.
Professional secrecy, without reservation.
Any information shared with the firm is covered by the attorney's professional secrecy from the first contact, regardless of the follow-up given to the matter.
A four-step method.
Framing the request and the stakes.
An initial appointment to understand your situation, review the documents and identify the first legal avenues.
A written legal memo.
When the matter warrants it, we prepare a memo setting out the applicable law, strengths and weaknesses, and the strategic options.
Negotiation or proceedings.
Formal notice, negotiation, writ, submissions, pleading: we lead the action best suited to your goal and budget.
Through to the actual outcome.
A judgment is only worth as much as its enforcement. We follow through to actual recovery, coordinating with the bailiff where necessary.
