With almost 5 years of experience as a lawyer, I assist startups and entrepreneurs with various legal matters to help them build and secure their businesses.
- I am involved in studying the business models of my clients, challenging the models and helping them understand the applicable regulations.
- I draft and negotiate various commercial contracts (with your partners, clients, suppliers).
- I also handle issues related to intellectual property and personal data.
- I operate more as a partner to my clients than as an external service provider consulted on specific issues.
My goal is to make the law accessible and ensure that it no longer serves as a barrier or mental burden for entrepreneurs, allowing them to focus on the development of their business.
As a French attorney and the founder of US Expansion Partners, my expertise is shaped by previous roles at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP, a distinguished American law firm in Paris, and Ernst & Young, where I orchestrated global tech expansions. In these roles, I prepared international tax strategies, crafted critical legal documents for confidential mergers, and navigated intricate legal landscapes.
Now leading the consulting firm US Expansion Partners, I seamlessly blend diverse legal tech aspects and international business operations. Armed with extensive knowledge in both US and French Law, I specialize in delivering dynamic legal and business consultations. My focus involves navigating legal intricacies, devising international tax strategies, and ensuring compliance with financial and accounting nuances. Leading our firm, I thrive in providing tailored support to tech companies globally, easing their entry into the U.S. or European market. My role encompasses orchestrating seamless international business operations, upholding stringent compliance with European and U.S. regulations, and crafting bespoke solutions for successful market entry.
Drawing on this wealth of experience, I am passionate about guiding businesses through the intricate landscapes of both European and U.S. markets with unwavering confidence.
