InView Legal (BE) is Wolters Kluwer Belgium’s flagship legal-research platform and the successor to Jura, the dominant Belgian Wolters Kluwer database since 2006. It is an Add-on source: your firm needs its own InView Legal Belgium subscription. Where Belgium is available, the source is already listed in the Research picker with a prompt to connect — signing in with your firm’s account is what turns the answers on.

Name the code and article when you have them. “Wat bepaalt art. 5:97 WVV?” points the search at one provision instead of spreading it across the whole companies code.

​
What it covers

This is the general-purpose Belgian source, covering civil, commercial, labour, criminal, administrative and constitutional law — burgerlijk recht, handelsrecht, vennootschapsrecht (WVV), sociaal recht / droit social, strafrecht and publiek recht. For Belgian tax questions, reach for monKEY instead — Wolters Kluwer’s Belgian knowledge base for accountants and tax professionals, a separate subscription with its own connection. With both connected, Libra treats monKEY as the Belgian tax specialist and InView Legal as the general legal source. See Setting up integrations.

​
One source, one connection

Wolters Kluwer sells the Belgian platform under two product licences, a Dutch-language one and a French-language one. Libra does not mirror that split: there is a single InView Legal (BE) row in the Research picker, backed by one connection, and there is no per-language toggle to set. What that one source returns follows your firm’s subscription: the connection carries your entitlements, so Libra searches the content you are subscribed to. See Setting up integrations for how that shows up in the picker and in Settings → Integrations. Prompt language doesn’t select a corpus either. There is one Belgian index behind the source, holding both Dutch- and French-language material, and Libra searches it the same way whichever language you write your question in.
Jura → InView Legal: Existing Jura customers transition to InView Legal via their Wolters Kluwer Belgium account manager. Once migrated, the Libra connection works the same way.

​
What you can ask

  • “Quelle est la jurisprudence de la Cour de cassation sur la clause de non-concurrence dans un contrat de travail?”
  • “Geef het commentaar van de WVV-bepalingen over bestuurdersaansprakelijkheid met recente rechtsleer.”
  • “What does Belgian case law say about non-compete clauses for executives?”
  • “Find commentary on the new Belgian companies and associations code.”

​
Setup

Connect InView Legal from Settings → Integrations, signing in with the credentials your firm uses for the subscription. Two rows in that list are called InView Legal — take the one described as Belgian legal research; the other is the Dutch platform. Setting up integrations walks through the flow and explains what a connection gives you.

​
