BBR Avocats is a Liège-based law firm with a heritage dating back to 1949, when founder Georges BAUDINET established the practice. The firm serves corporate clients and individuals with a broad suite of services spanning commercial, civil, and regulatory matters, supported by a culture of precise, pragmatic legal advice.

Following the 2009 merger of BAUDINET with BOTTIN – RIGO and the 2019 appointment of David WILLEMS as co-managing partner, BBR has strengthened its reputation for technical excellence and client responsiveness. The team comprises experienced lawyers who combine deep knowledge of Belgian and cross-jurisdictional issues with a hands-on approach to solving complex disputes and transactions.

BBR emphasizes accessible client service, transparent fee discussions, and proactive communication. The firm works with a network of foreign correspondents to support international matters and aims to tailor strategies to each client’s objectives, whether pursuing settlement, negotiation, or court proceedings.
