Veerle Pissierssens

Sr. Counsel | KPMG Law Belgium

The choice to specialize in public law has always been clear to me. Over the years I have gained vast experience in guiding and advising clients on the rights and obligations of (semi) public entities, in both advisory and contentious matters. In addition, I have extensive experience in advising clients on permitting and zoning issues.

Any issue with a public angle, great or small, is the reason I come to the (home) office in the morning.

Anything that broadens my perspective, whether it be a festival, movie, book or conversation, is where I enjoy spending my time outside of the office.
