US: Leading antitrust lawyer joins Crowell & Moring’s Brussels office

Crowell & Moring announced the arrival of Jules Stuyck to its Brussels office as a senior counsel in the firm’s Antitrust and Advertising & Product Risk Management groups. With more than 30 years of experience in European and Belgian law, Stuyck will counsel private clients and European institutions, agencies, and bodies in matters involving competition law, state aid, the customs union, free movement, public procurement, trademark and trade practices law, media law, and environmental law.

“We are excited to welcome Jules to Crowell & Moring,” said the firm’s chair, Angela B. Styles. “As an authority on competition law in the European Union and specifically in Belgium, he expands the capabilities of our global Antitrust Group.”

Stuyck is an experienced litigator, focusing on market practices, competition law, and intellectual property. He has advised several professional associations on issues of commercial practices and various issues of substantive and institutional EU law. He joins Crowell & Moring most recently from the Belgian law firm of Liedekerke Wolters Waelbroeck Kirkpatrick.

“I have known Jules for many years and he is one of the top Belgian authorities on competition and unfair competition law,” said Thomas De Meese, co-managing partner of the Brussels office. “His knowledge and practical experience will make him an invaluable addition to our team.”
