ALTIUS is looking for an Associate to join and strengthen our Dispute Resolution Team.

Company description

We are an independent, full-service, Belgian law firm based in Brussels (Tour & Taxis) with currently 70 lawyers and 25 staff members. Our clients are mainly large international or Belgian companies. At ALTIUS, we do legal differently. Going the extra mile and challenging the status quo is the way we work with every colleague, client and business partner. We are looking for candidates who are motivated to go the extra mile, are open minded, deliver quality and are not afraid to challenge and be challenged.

This highly specialised team lends a helping dispute-resolution hand whenever and wherever needed. With its excellent reputation, the team has been involved in ground-breaking litigation in the EU courts as well as highly complex cases in Belgium and arbitration beyond its borders.

• You possess excellent writing skills and you prefer a pragmatic and hands-on approach.
• You are an open and enthusiastic team player, highly motivated and internationally oriented.
• You are not afraid to speak your mind, have shown your entrepreneurial spirit in the past (ex. involvement in a student club, sport club, etc.), and don’t always choose the more conventional path.
