ACTUALITES :
- Trois associés de HVDB sont à nouveau mentionnés dans l'édition 2010 du Who's Who Legal Commercial Arbitration publié en décembre 2009:
"The Belgian firm of Hanotiau & van den Berg is incredibly well regarded, with both named partners appearing at the top of our global research. Bernard Hanotiau is "impossible to commend too highly", and Albert Jan van den Berg is an "amazing arbitrator". Pascal Hollander is once again included alongside them as a first-class practicioner."
Bernard Hanotiau et Albert Jan van den Berg sont respectivement classés deuxième et quatrième dans la liste des personnes les mieux considérées en arbitrage dans le monde entier.
- Global Arbitration Review, the International Journal of Public and Private Arbitration, a publié en décembre 2007 le GAR 100, une liste des 100 meilleurs cabinets spécialisés en arbitrage dans le monde. Hanotiau & van den Berg est le seul cabinet d'avocats du Benelux à avoir été inclus dans le GAR 100. La revue commente cette sélection comme suit :
"This international arbitration and litigation boutique is the only firm from the Benelux area that we selected for the GAR 100. The practice was founded in 2001 with the unabashed intention “to become the leader in the field of international arbitration”. Today it consists of four partners and eight associates who will undertake a variety of international dispute work, defined only by complexity. As for its ambition, this has arguably been achieved: a Belgian legal publication has made the practice “international arbitration and litigation firm of the year”, two years in a row.
The secret ingredient is strategic insight on cases from the world’s most in-demand arbitrators: Bernard Hanotiau and Albert Jan van den Berg. Their credentials are too lengthy to repeat in full. Suffice to say, in the most recent cycle of Who’s Who research, Hanotiau emerged as the third most chosen individual, behind V Veeder QC and Jan Paulsson. He is also a serving vice president of the LCIA.
Albert Jan van den Berg began in the field as assistant to the famous Pieter Saunders. Since then, he has become among other things general editor of the influential Yearbook: Commercial Arbitration; a vice president of the LCIA, and Who’s Who ‘Arbitration lawyer of the year” (awarded in 2006). Most of their work now is as arbitrators. The founders, however, continue to provide strategic level advice to clients of the firm and support to the younger partners, who are as a result emerging in their own right. Pascal Hollander for example, is now also included in the Who’s Who." (Global Arbitration Review, Vol.2, Issue 5 - December 2007) |
