About Us
DBB - Demolin - Brulard - Barthelemy - is a law firm with offices in Brussels, Mons, and Soignies, Belgium and Paris, France. It is grouped trans-nationally with the French law firm PDGB Avocats.
Our services
We provide consulting to our clients in a variety of law practices and numerous economic sectors. We assist our clients in litigation, arbitration and mediation.
DBB not only respects the traditional values of the Bar but also responds to the needs of modern businesses in several practice areas (individual tax law and corporate tax law, mergers & acquisitions , corporate law, bankruptcy law, intellectual property law, welfare law, commercial law, European Community law, environmental law, banking law, insurance and liability law, aviation law, criminal business law, etc.).
We have developed cross-border expertise.
DBB and PDGB are able to work on French-Belgian, French-German and Belgian-German issues, whether concerning individual or corporate tax legislation, acquisitions or reorganisations, as well as the fields of marketing, intellectual property rights, welfare law or litigation.
We have succeeded in developing this practice because our lawyers either have had or currently have exposure to two legal or linguistic cultures. We also rely on the collaboration of French and German lawyers as well as on Spanish and English legal experts.
We are headquartered in Brussels just a short distance from the European Commission and EU Parliament. Many of our lawyers come from different national backgrounds and practice in specialised areas of law, retaining the perspective of their original legal culture.
Whether in monitoring, consulting, lobbying, representation in court, assistance in obtaining financing, representation before European agencies (pharmaceuticals, biocides,…), it is our aim to defend the rights of businesses and ordinary citizens.
Our European clients do business and are sometimes involved in legal disputes abroad. Our overseas clients do business in Europe. For them, we are able to offer international law expertise derived from private international law, international tax law, laws governing foreign investment, and more.
DBB and PDGB have assembled a team of legal experts and paralegals in Brussels and Paris who speak several languages, who are members of foreign Bars, such as British solicitors, German Rechtsanwalt, and lawyers who have been admitted to North American Bars or who come from emerging countries such as China.
We have thus succeeded in developing our services in neighbouring markets such as Germany, England or Spain, in other European Community markets, in North America and in emerging markets, specifically China and India.
These institutions, whether European or foreign, require advice in such diverse areas as civil aviation, mining, international contracts, taxes, financing, the legal system, etc….
We are able to assist our overseas clients thanks to a large number of part-time and full-time collaborators as well as individuals we consider to be “best friends” without an exclusive or formal relationship. For example, we are the European representatives of the LAWROPE Group and the lawyers for the US law firm of Duane-Morris.
Just for our clients!
We offer services to our clients, which include corporations and privately held groups, public and private institutions and international institutions, in various sectors of the economy.
Our uncompromising insistence on quality and our multidisciplinary staff allows us to assist our clients at every level in their legal difficulties, regardless of the complexity, diversity or international dimension.
We know that to effectively resolve an issue, we must be very familiar with our clients and their activities and plans. Hence, we have deliberately adopted a proactive client-centred approach that allows us to deliver relevant, superior and customised legal advice.
Moreover, our law firm possesses IT and technical platforms that not only optimise relations with our foreign clientele, but guarantee document production and delivery of research in a timely manner.
