Administrative and public law

With a ‘perfect command of administrative law’, the public law team at Bredin Prat frequently works closely with the firm’s top-flight M&A department to advise on the regulatory and public law aspects of high-profile deals, most notably in the media sector. In addition to its standout strengths in FDI filings and involvement in precedent-setting administrative litigation, the group has recently taken on an increasing number of regulatory and public contracts mandates relating to large-scale public infrastructure projects (with an emphasis on the transport sector), thanks to Gabrielle Reddé‘s significant expertise in this area. ’Excellent‘ practice head Yann Aguila covers the full spectrum of litigation and transactional matters in the public sector. Guillaume Léonard is another name to note.
