Applications and subcontracting
In France, and particularly regarding procedural matters, the geographical proximity of the lawyer is important, knowing that the dispute will be submitted to the territorially competent court.
Depending on the subject matter and subject of the dispute, the representation of the parties by a lawyer registered with the bar association corresponding to the jurisdiction of the court before which the proceedings will be initiated may be mandatory; This trusted figure is known as a local attorney.
A local attorney is a lawyer who represents and advocates for a party in a court or tribunal, even if they are not the lead counsel in the case. Applicant counsel typically intervenes at specific hearings or procedural steps, acting on behalf of and under the direction of lead counsel. In short, the applicant lawyer provides temporary and ad hoc representation of clients before the judicial authorities, even if he or she was not initially designated as the lead lawyer in the case.
Our Bordeaux firm offers its services as a lawyer applying before the courts of first instance in the jurisdiction of the Bordeaux Court of Appeal. When we have proceedings with mandatory representation, outside the jurisdiction of our Bar, we can count on our network of lawyers applying before all French courts.
In Spain, we also have an intermediary figure between the client and his lawyer and the judicial system ; this is called a “procurador“. However, lawyers do not intervene solely on the basis of geographical criteria, but are mandatory in certain legal proceedings, due to their purpose or amount of the litigation.
