Altius: Open minds, bold idea
That’s why we’re so much
more than great lawyers.

About ALTIUS

An independent Belgian law firm, ALTIUS knows the Belgian and European legal scene inside-out. Pragmatic, professional and personal, every lawyer on the 90-plus team brings their own brand of passion and expertise to the job at hand. 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. Our service is unique in today’s legal space. Open minds and bold ideas – that’s what makes us so much more than great lawyers.

The ALTIUS Difference

Business is always personal

We believe business is always personal. Our group of highly specialised lawyers and industry experts are ready to help whatever your legal challenge.

A great vibe

Forget about formal, the team at ALTIUS prides itself on its open approach. From the trainees to the partners to the clients, everyone is part of the team.

Open minds & Bold ideas

Doing legal differently means challenging the status quo. It means a refreshing openness to the new and different. Another perspective? A surprising idea? It’s what we do every day.

Not legal as usual

Expertise and experience are key to interpreting the law. As insiders within the Belgian and European legal scenes, our lawyers will find the best legal paths, backed by solid legal advice and suited to your precise needs.

Trust. It is what we do.

Beyond what you expect from your law firm

Local issue? Regional questions? International issue?

Yes, please!

Corporate clients

Larger companies and multinationals count on our legal expertise to enhance existing in-house legal counsel.

ALTIUS as your behind-the-scenes legal partner

Our legal teams help large Belgian companies and local offices of multinationals navigate the Belgian and EU legal scenes.

Small-to-medium businesses

Small-to-medium-sized companies need a different approach to legal services, which is why so many SMEs in Belgium trust us with their day-to-day legal needs.

ALTIUS as your trusted legal advisor

Small family companies and start-ups don’t usually need a big legal team. That is why ALTIUS can easily tailor the right service to the right need.

International

Belgium is a diverse country, which can be mind-bogglingly complex to outsiders. We help foreign law firms and other international organisations with our insider knowledge of the Belgian legal scene.

ALTIUS as your Belgian legal guide

The regional and linguistic complexity of Belgium can be confusing to an outsider. We support foreign law firms and international organisations who need a legal insider in Brussels.
