DIGITAL LAW
We support IT teams, legal departments and digital innovation leaders to enable them to implement their projects with in-depth legal advice.
We also intervene at the request of investment funds or law firms to carry out legal audits (due diligence) in the context of mergers and acquisitions operations in order to identify areas of legal risk and negotiate the guarantee of assets and liabilities.
We regularly work for French or foreign law firms to meet the needs of their clients in our areas of expertise. Conversely, we use these same foreign firms for our clients when a foreign regulation and/or law is intended to apply to their activity.
