Enhanced Legal Support for International Asset Situations
The increasing internationalisation of personal and professional paths makes asset and family situations ever more complex. To address these challenges and provide our clients with comprehensive, structured and secure legal support, our firm is initiating a strategic partnership with Maître Hakim IZOUGARHEN, a French notary.
A Strengthened and Comprehensive Legal Offering
Our firm is strengthening its services by partnering with Maître Hakim IZOUGARHEN in order to offer comprehensive support to French nationals living abroad, dual nationals, and more broadly, to anyone with family or asset-related interests in France.
In an international environment, asset situations are frequently characterised by cross-border elements: residence outside France, marriage celebrated abroad, multiple nationalities, ownership of real estate in several countries, international bank accounts or corporate structures. These factors significantly increase the complexity of legal and tax analysis. Determining the applicable law, identifying the competent courts, coordinating between legal systems, and ensuring the recognition and enforcement of foreign decisions all require deep expertise and a thorough command of international mechanisms.
Comprehensive and Secure Support
This partnership with a French notary enables us to provide our clients with complete, coherent and secure support. In matters of real estate investment in France, we intervene at every stage: legal due diligence, structuring of the acquisition, choice of ownership structure, asset and tax optimisation, preparation and formalisation of deeds. This coordinated approach ensures legal certainty, efficiency and responsiveness.
Matrimonial Property Regimes and International Mobility
We also assist our clients with matrimonial property regimes, particularly in situations involving international mobility. Choosing or adapting the regime, determining the applicable law, and anticipating the asset-related consequences in the event of separation or death require rigorous analysis and strategic foresight.
International Successions
In the field of international successions, we support our clients both in the planning phase (wills, gifts, estate planning) and in the administration of estates involving assets or heirs located in several countries. Our objective is to secure the transfer of assets, prevent conflicts of laws and reduce the risk of double taxation.
Complex Family Situations
Finally, in complex family situations, including international divorces, we safeguard our clients’ family and financial interests by coordinating proceedings between the relevant jurisdictions and ensuring the completion of all required formalities in France.
An Integrated Lawyer–Notary Approach
Through this integrated lawyer–notary approach, our firm offers clients a single point of contact, a comprehensive strategic vision and a high level of legal security, fully adapted to the complexity of cross-border situations. Wherever they are in the world, we secure their projects and protect their long-term interests in France and internationally.
