Professional background

Professional background

I advise both French and foreign companies and funds on company law, contract law and criminal business law, private equity, venture capital, and investments.

My team is ranked in legal directories and Legal 500 Paris said: "This efficient and high performance M&A team wins approval with its human approach. The team is composed of dealmakers who perfectly know how to position themselves and take up the initiative during negotiations".

I have a strong university background with a Master's degrees in Business Law and Tax Law from the University of Paris II - Assas and I was admitted to the Paris Bar in 1989.

I worked previously for Gide Loyrette Nouel and then with Dubarry Le Douarin Veil before joining Fieldfisher in 2007. 

My native language is French and I am fluent in English and Spanish.
