I'm Alexander Colaert. I give growing companies the experience of a senior General Counsel: per project, a few days a month, or as a fully outsourced legal department. In Dutch, French and English.
The first call is free and without obligation.
Choose the model that fits your company's stage. You can scale up or down at any time.
Defined and one-off
For a defined question or transaction: a contract, a restructuring, a compliance file. Clear scope, clear price.
Ideal if you have one specific question or transaction.
Part-time, but part of your team
A dedicated senior legal counsel in your team for a fixed number of days per month, without the cost and commitment of a full-time hire.
Ideal if you need legal counsel regularly, but not full-time.
Your entire legal function
I take on the entire legal function, from the boardroom to day-to-day operations. Proactive and aligned with your business goals.
Ideal if you need a complete legal department without building one yourself.
Supplier, distribution, licensing and customer contracts, negotiated with an eye on what works commercially.
Articles of association, shareholder agreements, board resolutions and the structure behind them.
From due diligence and transaction documents to post-merger integration.
Privacy programmes, data processing agreements, and fast support when a breach happens, including notification to the Belgian Data Protection Authority.
Mapping which AI systems you use, which obligations follow, and how to meet them in a workable way.
Sustainability policy, governance changes and the legal side of a B Corp certification.
In 30 minutes we discuss your question, your company and what you expect from legal counsel.
You receive a proposal with a clear scope and price: a fixed project fee, a monthly package or an hourly rate.
I work within your teams and tools, with one point of contact and clear agreements on availability.
Companies that need senior legal advice but don't want to hire a full-time lawyer, or not yet.
I'm a legal professional with 17 years of experience, from private practice to leading legal departments in international groups. Alongside Lexconsult, I'm responsible for legal affairs across the EMEA region of an international group.
I handle legal, compliance and regulatory matters in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Italy, the UK and South Africa, and I have managed litigation in Belgium, France and Luxembourg. My advice starts from what your business needs, not just from what the law allows.
