Founded in 2010, it advises and assists its clients, individuals and corporations, in the prevention and resolution of criminal and regulatory risks.

The firm has been involved in several high-profile cases in recent years (in particular the Oil versus Food, Vivendi, Cahuzac, Dassault, Panama Papers, Lafarge cases) and has developed expertise in corruption, tax fraud laundering and criminal labor law (manslaughter, involuntary manslaughter and moral harassment).

The firm's lawyers frequently appear before criminal and commercial courts as well as before French and foreign administrative and regulatory authorities (World Bank, H3C, PCAOB, AMF, AFA, DGCCRF, ACPR).

Drawing on its knowledge of the business world, the firm participates, alongside its clients, in the development of risk prevention tools (Sapin II plan, duty of vigilance, risk mapping, delegation of powers and internal investigations).

The firm is aware that this is a key issue for its clients, and makes every effort to protect and preserve their image and reputation by initiating actions on the basis of press law and the “LCEN” (law to support confidence in the digital economy) and by intervening alongside companies specialized in communication and e-reputation.

Finally, the firm, whose lawyers have completed part of their training abroad and some of whom are also members of the New York Bar, frequently collaborates with foreign colleagues (American, Swiss and South American in particular) in the resolution of international litigation or complex cross-border disputes.

The firm’s expertise and proficiency have been recognized in recent years in French and international rankings, including “Décideurs”, Legal 500, Best Lawyer and in Le Point magazine’s 2020 ranking of the ten best French law firms in criminal law.
