Above all, the law should be based on common sense. It calls for a high level of vision, rigorous mastery of texts and creative agility.

For several decades, the multiplication of texts - often contradictory and abstruse - has distanced the law from its very essence.

Litigants are at a loss, faced with discouraging complexity, and procedures that drag on and become unnecessarily costly.

That's why I approach each case like the history buff that I am, with the constant concern to compare current texts with fundamental legal concepts, with the aim of:

  • making a complex case simple and understandable
  • bringing out the overall meaning with pragmatism
  • establishing an original and relevant line of defense
  • building effective and convincing arguments

Graduated from Paris II Panthéon-Assas Law School and Cornell Law School (USA), I am a member of the Paris Bar (1998) and New York Bar (2001), and specialize in atypical legal disputes requiring a multidisciplinary approach.

My keen interest in civil procedure enables me to conduct trials using the full range of procedural means at my disposal.

I have chosen to handle each case in person - if necessary, with the help of specialized colleagues - in order to master every detail, to be responsive and to maintain a direct, privileged and trusting relationship with the client.

I understand and master accounting principles. I know how to read a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement, and I advise my clients on the financial impact of their case.

Without restricting myself to a particular legal sector, I work mainly in business law, business criminal law and patrimonial law.

My interest in 18th century decorative arts has also given me original experience in art market law, enabling me to assist auction houses, dealers, collectors and experts - with whom I work regularly - in resolving their legal and judicial issues.

Fees are invoiced on a time-spent basis after signature of a fee agreement; they are subject to periodic statements of work, enabling the client to be informed in real time of the progress of the case and to have a clear view of the cost of the procedure.
