    Eversheds Sutherland Belgium has appointed Benjamin Haberkorn as Corporate M&A Partner, who joins the Brussels office from January 2020.

    Benjamin Haberkorn has over 20 years' experience, during which time he has built his reputation as a highly-experienced M&A lawyer. He will grow the presence of the Brussels team, working closely with Eversheds Sutherland's international teams.

As we continue to build our profile and reputation in Belgium, Benjamin's reputation and wealth of experience will help to play a significant role in the growth of the Corporate M&A practice and our Brussels office. I look forward to his arrival and working closely with him."

    "We welcome Benjamin Haberkorn to reinforce our activities in M&A transactions for the French-speaking community in Belgium and to strengthen the strategic relationship with the Eversheds Sutherland Paris office."

    "Eversheds Sutherland has clear aspirations to build a thriving corporate M&A practice in Belgium from their base in Brussels, and I am delighted to join the team as Partner to facilitate this ambition. They have a strong, global brand, and I am excited to grow my practice from their international platform in 2020 and beyond."
