De Clercq once again recognised by Legal 500

The Legal 500 is a leading international guide to the legal profession. Its rankings are based on independent research, client feedback, and peer references from within the legal industry.

This recognition confirms our way of working: substantively strong, practical in execution, and always focused on solutions that can be applied directly in practice. Whether it concerns complex employment law matters or technology and privacy issues, we work closely with our clients and provide clear, actionable advice.

Clients particularly value our commitment, accessibility, and ability to act quickly when needed. Our consistent quality and broad expertise are also explicitly highlighted in the research.

We would like to thank our clients and peers for their trust and valuable feedback.

In addition to the ranking, De Clercq has also been recognised this year for client satisfaction in the area of Billing & Efficiency. This distinction is awarded to firms that, based on multi-year independent client feedback, rank among the best performers.

For us, this is a valuable confirmation that our way of working—efficient, transparent, and with attention to cost and results—is truly experienced and appreciated by our clients.

This recognition underlines that for us, quality lies not only in legal expertise, but also in the way we collaborate and add value in practice.
