Thomas De Donder

Thomas is a director in Deloitte Legal’s Employment, Pensions & Benefits team, who joined Deloitte Legal in 2010 and mainly works from the Antwerp office.

With over 12 years of experience, he advises and assists clients from both the private and public sector on general employment law issues, with a focus on restructuring services in case of a transfer of business, mass redundancy and/or closure of a company.

On a regular basis, he also represents his clients in legal proceedings before Belgian courts.

These clients are drawn from a wide range of industries (e.g. automotive, medical devices and manufacturing) and include both national and multinational companies.

Throughout his career at Deloitte Legal, Thomas has built long-lasting client relations thanks to a deep understanding of both the law and the (corporate) DNA of the client, resulting in the continued recognition as a key lawyer of the department in the Legal 500.

Thomas is an occasional guest speaker and has written several publications for HR-related/legal magazines.
