Local Knowledge made registering as a freelancer incredibly easy and pain-free. Louise took the time to explain all aspects of the process even before I chose to go with them, and took charge of interacting with the Belgian administration from A to Z. I didn’t have to queue, write or call a single time – definitely a good investment.
Louise has with clear focus and enormous knowledge guided, explained, helped, referred me and generally performed services during the start up process for our AISBL and the forthcoming employment discussions. She is a rock to lean on.
Louise proved herself a real asset in helping me recruit and manage a growing team. Her flexibility, insights and knowledge of Belgian regulations are unmatched. I would warmly recommend using the services of Local Knowledge to anyone who needs a reliable long-term partner, with a no-nonsense attitude and very affordable fees.
Louise’s expertise and sharp insights were invaluable to me as I explored options for setting up a freelance business in Belgium. She cut through all the complexity and helped me see a clear way forward.
