On 11 April 2023, the report on the reform of some contracts (sale, lease, loan, etc.) was handed over to the French Minister of Justice. More to come.
So grateful to have just received the legal award of “Most Innovative International Business Law Firm 2023”. As my law practice grows over the years, I am honoured to have been recognised as a France/UK Business Litigator,…
…then as an International Business Litigator and now as an Innovative International Business Law Firm! I pride myself on acting in the most creative, innovative way as possible to meet my clients’ needs and expectations. Always going forward, looking at the global picture and thinking out of the box to reach the best results possible. Thank you #SMElegalawards.
Paris’ leading role in international litigation
On 28 October 2022, the newly refurbished International Commercial Court room in Paris has been inaugurated. Since 2018, thanks to the Paris International Commercial Courts,…
…international litigation cases between international businesses are ruled on French soil. These International Commercial Courts are arguably incredibly successful and the now built-in technology takes them to an even higher level in Europe.

Consultation on the preliminary draft reform of French Contract Law: lawyers have their say!
Tomorrow’s Justice
The French National Congress for Justice 2022 (“Les Etats généraux de la Justice 2022”) considers legal education as a priority. I am very proud to have been raising awareness of legal fundamentals…
…in schools in France and in the UK for 13 years in the name of the Paris Bar. Some legal background, education and an open mind are keys to free choice, critical thinking and success.

Immensely proud and grateful to have been granted for the second year running the award of “Best UK/France Business Litigator” by SME Legal Awards UK 2022.
I am incredibly lucky to do a job that I chose at a very early age and to do it on both sides of the English Channel. The greatest package ever. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this award.
Proud and honoured to have been selected by La Sorbonne to be involved as an alumna in the international influence and reputation of the university.

Onwards and upwards
As 2022 is looming on the horizon, I am reaching a double milestone: 15 years of presence in Paris and 10 years of presence in London.
15 years ago, I started my career as a business litigator with an international law firm in Paris.
After two other international law firms and the creation of my own private practice in Paris and in London in 2012, I pride myself on having clients who have chosen to follow me and to have a long-standing business relationship with me, instead of letting large firms deal with their matters.
Hard work, perseverance and a constant drive to achieve excellence bear fruit. The size of the law practice does not matter. Only people matter.
Many thanks to all my clients, French and international, current and future, for their trust and loyalty.

2020
15, 22 and 29 September 2020: Honoured to share that the French legal publisher Dalloz has offered me again to speak in English on a highly topical French legal theme “Disturbing events affecting the course of commercial agreements”. With Brexit looming on the horizon and the pandemic of Covid-19, the performance of international commercial agreements has faced and will face difficulties.
5 June 2020: Looking forward to speaking in French at the Dalloz conference about the topical theme “Se préparer au Brexit : quels impacts sur les relations contractuelles ?” (Getting ready for Brexit: what impacts on your contractual relationships?).
This conference will focus on the transition period that started on 31 January 2020. I will be speaking about the key issues such that companies may anticipate their France-UK relationships as best as possible: current and future agreements, negotiations, maintaining and building business relationships, current and future litigation cases and proceedings, enforcement of Court decisions handed down on both sides of the English Channel, etc.
I will be speaking at another conference to be scheduled later in time once an agreement is entered into between the European Union and the UK, and once Brexit has been effectively implemented.
