Altea Attorneys

Lawyer Brussels


Founded in 2012 by Michel Kaiser, Céline Verbrouck, Emmanuel Gourdin, and Catherine de Bouyalski – all certified as specialists in their respective practice areas by the Bar Council (Ordre des avocats) – Altea offers world-class legal services in the areas of public law, constitutional and administrative law, immigration law, nationality law, and private international family law.

The fifteen or so lawyers that make up the Altea law firm were naturally brought together by the complementary nature of their practice areas, paired with an active desire to promote the shared values associated with these areas of the law. They are bound by a shared passion for the defence of human and civil rights.

The high quality of the services provided by the firm requires them to fully master administrative and judicial procedure – even in international suits – as well as to be able to offer highly specialised legal and strategic advice in each of their practice areas.

In its areas of expertise, Altea vigorously defends the interests of its clients, be they individuals, public authorities, non-profit groups, or business entities. Altea therefore stands apart by providing premium professional legal services to all types of clients and by its commitment to ensuring that these services remain accessible.
