Portico is pleased to announce the appointment of Sebastiaan De Meue as partner.
Sebastiaan has been a lawyer at Portico since 2014. He is active across the broad field of public law, with a practice focused mainly on environmental law, civil service law and public procurement law. He has authored several contributions to books and legal journals, has spoken at various seminars and has also been a part-time assistant in administrative law at KU Leuven.
Partner Thomas Eyskens sees Sebastiaan’s promotion as the result of the firm’s policy of investing in the training of its associates: “Sebastiaan exemplifies the development of a promising young lawyer into a highly qualified specialist, with broad experience in public law, an eye for impeccable case management and a keen sense of what really matters to the client. Having worked at the firm for almost ten years, he knows the firm and its clients inside out, which can only make for a smooth integration as partner.”
Nicolas Bonbled and Aurélien Vandeburie, also partners, welcome this promotion, which “confirms Sebastiaan’s talent, expertise and consistent rigour in his work” as well as “his involvement in the cases handled by the firm, in both Dutch and French”.
The appointment will take effect on 1 January 2023.
