1/1/0001  IN MEMORIAM AMANDINE BOURMORCK
 We have the sad duty to announce the death of our colleague and friend Amandine Bourmorck. After brilliant studies at the University of Brussels and an additional master's from the University of Louvain, Amandine joined the Brussels Bar and, in 2009, the law firm of Liedekerke. She was part of the real estate and Regulatory Practice Group and worked there with a rare acumen and enthusiasm. She primarily focused on urban planning and environmental law matters and on tenancy and joint ownership property law. She had also been an assistant in property law and guidance counsellor at the University of Brussels since 2008. Besides being a remarkable lawyer, Amandine was also one of the live wires of the annual Revues of Liedekerke and an enthusiastic sportswoman, defending with ardour the colours of Liedekerke, especially in the annual Legal Run and Immorun. She will remain an example for all of us by virtue of her energy, commitment and respect for others. She in and of herself represented all the values we share inside the firm. Our thoughts go to her family and her companion, Arnaud Brohé. We know our grief will be shared by everyone, peers and clients, who had the privilege to work with Amandine.
