He assists a lot of contractors, builders, individuals, project developers, real estate brokers and insurers. Not only in disputes and proceedings but also with practical and solution-oriented advice.

Stefaan Desrumaux has gathered a comprehensive knowledge of tenancy law (commercial lease, lease of houses,...). He also has a special interest and experience in leasehold law and agricultural law (judicial procedures, drafting and assessing various agriculture-related agreements, guiding and advising in the field of acquisitions, family property law,...).

In addition, Stefaan Desrumaux also regularly provides assistance in the field of judicial reorganizations (WCO - Enterprise Continuity Act) in the construction and contracting sector. He has a broad experience both in the guiding companies in difficulty as well as guiding the creditors and/or other stakeholders in WCOs.
