While our firm’s main contact at L&L is Marc Vermylen, a partner, the majority of my team’s correspondence is with Sarah Libregts, a senior attorney in the Belgian office. Sarah is incredibly responsive, and her legal advice is consistently thoughtful and well-articulated. She does a really good job of laying out the pros and cons of an approach; describing whether a point is ultimately a legal or business consideration; and guiding our deliberation with practical suggestions.’
