Mr Vertriest specialises in all aspects of employment law. He advises both large and small businesses and individual employees on a wide range of legal issues around labour and employment.

Mr Vertriest graduated with distinction as a Master of Laws from KU Leuven in 2006. He then completed an LLM specialising in European Law at King's College London, again graduating with distinction, which enabled him to further broaden his legal knowledge and develop an international perspective on complex issues.

Mr Vertriest started his career as a lawyer at an international law firm, where he gained a broad range of experience.
