The challenges of the subject
Corporate law is a branch of law that governs the incorporation, organization, operation and termination of commercial companies and other forms of entrepreneurial organization.
Corporate law is constantly evolving to adapt to changes in the economic and entrepreneurial environment, as well as to new forms of business law and technological innovations.
Commercial law, on the other hand, is a branch of law that governs the commercial relations between companies and individuals in the context of commercial activities. He is primarily concerned with the rules and principles governing trade, including the sale of goods, advertising, distribution, transportation, payments and international commercial transactions.
In this context, choosing an experienced lawyer is essential.
Assistance and representation
Our added value lies in the dual Franco-Spanish identity of the firm and its lawyers, all of whom are at least trilingual, and in their extensive experience in international law, which allows us to effectively advise French and Spanish companies in their cross-border activities.

In drafting these contracts, we strive to be meticulous in wording clauses that clearly establish the rights and obligations of the parties, as well as mechanisms for resolving disputes and litigation in case they arise.
