Personal Injury & Private Interests

Protect what matters

Attentive protection of personal rights

An accident, physical injury, family conflict, inheritance or financial difficulty can have a lasting impact on a person's life.

We advise individuals, business leaders and victims with an attentive, confidential and rigorous approach in France, Portugal and cross-border situations.

Confidential conversation between a client and legal counsel

Personal injury and compensation

We support victims and their loved ones after road, everyday-life or workplace accidents, assaults, medical accidents or any physical or psychological harm. Our role is to establish liability and obtain compensation that reflects the true circumstances.

We gather evidence, prepare for and attend expert assessments, analyse medical findings, assess present and future consequences, negotiate with insurers and initiate appropriate proceedings. Healthcare costs, loss of earnings, assistance needs, adapted housing, suffering, career impact and losses suffered by loved ones are considered as a whole.

Liability and family

We act in disputes concerning civil, professional or contractual liability, insurance cover, compensation disagreements and out-of-court or court-appointed expert assessments.

In family matters, we advise and defend clients during a separation, a dispute between relatives or protective measures. We favour agreement where dialogue makes it possible, while preparing a rigorous court defence when necessary.

Wealth and inheritance

We assist clients with succession planning and estate administration, undivided co-ownership, disagreements between heirs and matters relating to the transfer of wealth.

Our work aims to clarify everyone's rights, safeguard family interests and secure important decisions. Where the matter requires it, we work with notaries, experts and the relevant professionals to develop a coherent, lasting solution.

When personal life intersects with business

A separation, incapacity, accident or inheritance can affect a company's capital, governance or continuity. We then coordinate our work with the Business and Executives practice to anticipate deadlocks, protect shareholdings and address family and business interests together.

France–Portugal: making situations clear

We assist French–Portuguese families, people injured in accidents abroad and heirs dealing with assets in several countries. Our teams in Bordeaux and Porto coordinate the necessary steps with medical advisers, experts, notaries and other professionals relevant to the matter.
