The Firm

About

Born in Paris from the meeting of complementary French and international experiences, 1792 Avocats supports companies, directors, investors and individuals in their most sensitive legal matters.

Overview

A Parisian law firm with an international reach

Located in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, 1792 Avocats supports its clients in the main areas of business law, employment law and real estate law.

Born from the meeting of complementary experiences, the firm was built around a simple conviction: the law must be a tool for decision, protection and action. Our work always aims to make the stakes clear, the risks under control and the choices effective.

Our approach

A strategic and pragmatic approach

“The law must be a tool for decision, protection and action.”

We act both in advisory and litigation matters. This dual approach allows us to anticipate risks from the drafting of the contract, the structuring of your transaction or the conduct of your negotiation, while retaining the ability to defend your interests firmly when a dispute becomes unavoidable.

We always favour amicable and negotiated solutions, which are faster and more controlled. This search for a settlement is never, however, at the expense of protecting your rights: when proceedings are necessary, we conduct them with rigour, determination and tactical judgement.

Our values

What drives us forward

01
Clarity
Making sometimes complex legal situations understandable: explaining, prioritising the stakes and enabling you to decide with full knowledge of the facts.
02
Commitment
Every matter is handled with involvement, precision and responsiveness — behind a procedure lie major human, economic or wealth-related interests.
03
Pragmatism
Legally sound AND practically useful solutions. A good strategy is not only right in theory: it is one that effectively serves your objectives.
04
Candour
We owe it to you to defend, but also to warn. We make clear recommendations, including when caution or turning back is called for.
Expertise

Cross-cutting expertise

The firm practises in closely related areas. This cross-cutting capability is a real added value: a dispute between shareholders can have employment, tax or wealth-related consequences; the sale of a business can touch on the lease, the contracts, the warranties or the employees; a real estate project can quickly become a matter of construction, co-ownership or litigation.

Our approach consists in placing each matter back in its overall context in order to avoid blind spots and build a coherent response.
