Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘I can recommend Rémi Sermier, both for his skills and knowledge and for the quality of the personal relationship and his attention to his clients.’

  • ‘Pamina is a niche firm made up of two partners who are specialists in their field. It is a firm that therefore offers cutting-edge expertise that we can approach with complete confidence.’

  • ‘I work mainly with David Epaud. He combines great finesse of legal analysis with unfailing responsiveness. He always responds when needed, and his writing is always impeccable in both form and substance. It is extremely pleasant and reassuring to work with him.’

  • ‘Very responsive and efficient team, very quick feedback.’

  • ‘The Pamina team is expert in public law, corporate law and public procurement law and has an in-depth knowledge of our sector which makes it essential.’

He is always ready to answer our difficult questions and to help us. The field of air transport and particularly airports is his specialty. A lawyer is "always too expensive", of course, but, as far as we are concerned, we have no complaints, especially if we are talking about value for money.’
