Profile:
Bernard Caris has been a member of the Brussels’ Bar since October 1994 and joined the Brussels based law firm Liedekerke Wolters Waelbroeck Kirkpatrick in October 2007. Immigration law has always been an important part of his practice. The immigration practice of Mr. Caris is focused on business immigration: the interventions range from the filing of applications for work permits (employees) and professional cards (self-employed) to the obtaining of staying and/or residence permits, always taking into account the overall situation (tax and social security consequences, long term residence, citizenship, …).
