in 1997.
Since then, she has practised mainly in the areas of Franco-German business law, commercial law, contract law and inheritance law, providing both advisory and litigation services to her French, German and English speaking clients.

This may involve German or Austrian companies (with a parent company in Germany or Austria or a subsidiary, establishment or branch in France) involved in litigation in France or requiring advice on French law, as well as French or German-speaking individuals living in France, in Germany, Switzerland or Austria and needing assistance, in their respective languages, to deal with legal issues, often involving foreign aspects.

network of correspondents and lawyers in Europe and around the world, thanks to the Consulegis network of lawyers.
