What has been the highlight of your practice over the past 12 months?
I became a partner as of January 2020. This is extremely rewarding for me since I started with the firm in 2013, shortly after it launched, and have contributed to its growth and the position it has forged for itself in the French market.
What advice would you give rising stars/new lawyers in the private client world?
I believe that new lawyers in this field should realise that the private client world is evolving and now extends to a broader clientele that includes new business leaders and entrepreneurs. It is important today for legal advisors to take a cross-disciplinary approach to fully grasp the interrelated business aspects and personal wealth strategies of this new generation of private clients in order to effectively meet all their needs.

What advice would you give rising stars/new lawyers in the private client world?
The private client legal market is evolving and is not limited to historically wealthy individuals and families, but now includes a new generation of business leaders, particularly those who have built their wealth in technology and innovative sectors. It will be important for private client legal advisers to adapt to this new generation whose personal wealth strategies are intertwined with their business and corporate governance decision-making.
What is your favourite quote?
“Beyond decision-making, creativity needs to be cultivated by gathering and developing one’s curiosity while still maintaining technical know-how, and never ceasing to experiment. In my own research, the most surprising results come from establishing resonance between apparently unrelated items (…)." Cédric Villani.
Do you have any outside interests or hobbies?
