France

Our French market focus elevates the global impact of French technology and science companies growing at home and beyond. We support the dynamic growth of US and European venture capital invested into French companies and the success of French companies in forming US subsidiaries and accessing the US capital markets.

We support French innovators wherever they build – from Paris to New York and beyond. We’re deeply committed to the French market and active in the French tech ecosystem in New York and other major hubs globally. Familiar with both French and US business and legal frameworks, we help clients confidently move between them and transition to the US market seamlessly.

Our multilingual team – which includes emerging companies, capital markets/public companies and M&A lawyers with deep ties to France – has helped French companies enter and expand in the US and internationally for decades. Our well-established and frequently on-the-ground presence in the French market gives us deep knowledge of the French legal system, business ecosystem, practices and culture.

We think like our clients. We provide pragmatic, tailored and business-oriented advice to simplify complex transactions and develop holistic strategies, and we seamlessly partner with local counsel to ensure coverage and maximize efficiency across jurisdictions.

We work hand in hand with top French law, accounting and venture capital firms, and we are intimately familiar with the legal and business opportunities and challenges presented by US-French VC, private equity, M&A and capital markets transactions, including, specifically, tax and intellectual property matters.
