Tax law
All regulations relating to the levying and collection of taxes are subject to tax law. This area of law comprises a complex tangle of legislation and rules requiring a great deal of specific knowledge.
Over the years the firm De Broeck Van Laere & Partners has acquired the necessary knowledge and experience and attracted experts to assist you in this tax matter in a well-considered and professional manner.
Proactively on the right track
Taxation is interwoven throughout the entire business. For many companies, a well thought-out tax policy makes the difference between stagnation and growth. That is why, as experts, we want to keep our finger on the pulse. We advise you and/or your accountant in a proactive way about everything that has to do with your taxation. We monitor the tax consequences of your restructurings and transactions.
What if things go wrong...
In the event of a tax dispute with a federal or regional tax administration, we will defend your interests tooth and nail. We can assist you, together with your own accountant, from the tax audit to legal proceedings with the tax authorities, paying particular attention to possible procedural errors. We try to avoid litigation as much as possible, but if necessary we cross swords with the tax authorities. Thanks to our many years of experience and know-how in advocating this specific matter, you can count on professional conflict management.

Real estate law
We assist you with the purchase of real estate, write contracts for landowners, property developers (offices, apartments, etc.) working with contractors and optimize sales techniques from a legal point of view. We also write the deeds that bring about a temporary split in ownership rights (usufruct, building lease, ground lease) according to your objectives. Special attention is paid to registration tax and VAT (in the case of new construction).
We examine which company is most suitable for the project and optimise the sale of the apartments/offices in a tax-friendly manner. We carry out risk analyses which can lead to the demerger of companies whereby the real estate is separated from the operational risks in a tax-neutral way.
We resolve disputes with the architect/contractor/association of co-owners/syndicates and provide assistance with the application for the single permit (formerly "urban development permit"). We are your legal partner to manage your real estate project.

Bemiddeling
Bemiddeling in de zin van het Gerechtelijk wetboek is een gestructureerde procedure, waarin twee of meer partijen bij een geschil zelf pogen om op vrijwillige basis met de hulp van een bemiddelaar/mediator hun geschil te schikken. Deze procedure kan door de partijen vrijwillig worden ingeleid of door een rechterlijke instantie worden voorgesteld of gelast.
Het staat vast dat bemiddeling een opmars kent. Het is een bewezen en doeltreffende manier om op sneller, goedkoper en duurzamer conflicten aan te pakken. De bemiddelaar is een onafhankelijke, neutrale en onpartijdige ‘derde’, die het proces begeleidt. Hij of zij zorgt ervoor dat de betrokken partijen zich gehoord voelen in hun belangen. Hij of zij ondersteunt hen bij het zelf, samen zoeken naar een oplossing. De overeenkomst die bereikt wordt, noemt men het bemiddelingsakkoord, hetgeen bindend is voor partijen. Bemiddeling is een wettelijk erkende methode om conflicten op te lossen, buiten de rechtbank om (zgn. alternative dispute resolution).
Meester Didier Van Laere is erkend bemiddelaar in burgerlijke & handelszaken.
