Our Commercial & Corporate governance disputes’ practice is co-headed by Martin Pradel and Marina Matousekova.

Our lawyers act before civil and commercial courts in all types of business-related disputes, with a particular focus on commercial and corporate governance matters.

We advise and represent businesses of all sizes, operating in France and across the world, in disputes relating to the performance or termination of contracts (sale of goods and services, agency, partnership, cooperation, joint venture, licensing of patents, know-how or trademarks, etc.).

We have significant experience in resolving disputes involving long term agreements affected by the occurrence of unforeseen events.

Our team has also developed an expert line of work advising companies in disputes with foreign entities under economic sanctions.

Our team finally offers a strong expertise in:

• shareholders’ disputes;
• disputes between partners, relating in particular to the application of a shareholders’ agreement, the sharing of profit and loss, the withdrawal or exclusion of a partner, or the transfer of shares; and
• disputes between law firm partners, including issues specific to the legal profession (ethics, unfair competition, etc.).
