Who is Jazz.legal?
Thierry founded Jazz.legal in late 2019. Before that, he worked as a lawyer at two established firms.
Curiosity about how innovative and creative companies work drives him, from startup to multinational. What purpose does such a company have? What challenges does it face? But above all: how can I as a lawyer be an added value instead of a necessary evil?
Thierry holds a Master’s degree in Law from Ghent University and an Advanced Master’s degree in Intellectual Property and ICT Law from KU Leuven. He continues to update his skills in the field of business law and intellectual rights. Thierry values hard work, sincere communication and positive entrepreneurship.
He is an active member of the International Trademark Association (INTA), where he has served on various committees for several years. He is also a member of the Benelux Association for Trademark and Design Law (BMM).
In his spare time, Thierry is president of a non-profit organization that organizes cultural events, an amateur musician and striker at fusbal club Jazz.legal.

As our Office Manager, Pauline takes on the non-legal tasks within Jazz.legal – and they are plenty. This allows our lawyers to focus on legal work.
Pauline finds it important that communication within and with Jazz.legal runs smoothly. She prefers to do this in a spontaneous and cordial manner.
As a young mother her spare time is sparse, but she enjoys spending time in her the garden or meeting with friends.
