Frequently Asked Questions

A paralegal supports businesses with legal and administrative tasks such as contract management, drafting terms and conditions, and reviewing documents. Unlike a lawyer, a paralegal does not represent clients in court or provide legal advice in the strict, regulated sense. I do, however, help you keep your legal affairs in order so you can run your business with peace of mind. If necessary, I can refer you to the right lawyer.

We start with a no-obligation introductory conversation to discuss your needs. Based on that, I prepare a clear, tailored quote. Once we agree, I get to work, providing regular updates and consulting with you where needed until the final result is ready.

That depends on the assignment. For clearly defined tasks, such as drafting terms and conditions, I prefer to work for a fixed fee so you know the cost in advance. For ongoing support or interim assignments, I charge an hourly or daily rate or offer a fixed monthly package.

Both are possible. Some clients engage me for a one-off task, such as reviewing a contract. Others choose a longer-term arrangement, for example interim legal support during a busy period or an absence.

I work mainly remotely, which allows for flexibility and speed. For some assignments, such as interim management, we can discuss working on site.

That depends on my schedule at the time, but I aim to respond quickly. After our introductory conversation and your approval of the quote, we can usually get started within a few days.

This varies by assignment, but it is usually enough to share your current documents (such as existing contracts or terms and conditions), an overview of your activities, and your specific question. During our introductory conversation, I will let you know exactly what I need.

Certainly. I draft tailored terms and conditions or review your existing terms to check whether they are up to date and legally correct.

Yes, I help SMEs and self-employed professionals draw up a clear and accurate privacy policy that complies with GDPR requirements, without unnecessarily complicated legal jargon.

Legal interim management means that I temporarily take over your legal or contract-related tasks, for example during a busy period, while you are looking for a permanent employee, or when your current legal contact is absent. This keeps your legal work moving.

I can help assess the situation and support your position in your contracts and communications from a legal perspective. For formal proceedings or negotiations, I will refer you to a lawyer.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Legal Practice from Hogeschool PXL in Hasselt and gained experience at Brussels Airlines, Value Retail (Maasmechelen Village), Azelis and Galapagos, followed by almost four and a half years at Brussels Airport Company as a Commercial Contract Administrator. Today, I draw on that experience as a freelance Senior Paralegal for SMEs and self-employed professionals, among others.

The cost depends on the nature and scope of the assignment. After a brief introductory conversation, I prepare a transparent, tailored quote so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes, an initial conversation to discuss your situation and needs is always free and comes with no obligation.
