The firm acts for executives — individuals charged or designated as assisted witnesses — and for corporate entities prosecuted. Proceedings before the French National Financial Prosecutor's Office (Parquet National Financier) form a significant share of the practice. Convention judiciaire d'intérêt public (CJIP — French equivalent of a deferred prosecution agreement) — negotiation phase support.

Proceedings: preliminary investigations, judicial investigations, direct citations, hearings before the correctional court. Civil-party constitutions when an executive is the victim within their own company.

Police custody (garde à vue) — articles 62 to 64-1 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure. Under Law n° 2024-364 of 22 April 2024, in force since 1 July 2024, the waiting period has been abolished: a person in custody has the right to assistance by counsel from the very beginning of the measure and at any time, subject to a written, reasoned decision by the public prosecutor.

The firm ensures attendance from the first hour, notification of rights, examination of the conditions of placement, file consultation under article 63-4-1, assistance during questioning and confrontations.

Free interview (audition libre) — article 61-1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. When facts may qualify as a misdemeanour or felony punishable by imprisonment, the freely interviewed suspect has the right to counsel and the right to remain silent.
