CIVIL LITIGATION

GENERAL CIVIL DISPUTES

 

Clients can be assisted in all aspects of civil liability such as problems encountered after purchase of goods and services.

 

In France there are two courts of first instance for civil matters: Tribunal d’Instance and Tribunal de Grande Instance.  Litigants have the right of appeal to the Cour d’Appel.

 

Clients can be represented in front of all these courts as well as during any expertise process where necessary.

CONSTRUCTION DISPUTES

 

Legal issues in this field often arise in contracts with local tradesmen, as well as between vendor and purchaser following the sale of a house.  French and English law can differ quite significantly in this subject matter.

 

In this area of law a court appointed
expert is usually nominated to assess and calculate damages.

 

Clients can be assisted with all stages of the procedure through the civil courts and their interests can also be represented during the expertise report stage. If you would like to discuss your case please contact me.

 

PROPERTY PURCHASES

 

Although it is a Notaire who deals with the conveyance of a property, an Avocat can assist a client to ensure this latter’s interests are represented during the property transaction.

 

Clients can be advised on purchasing property in France, and their interests can be represented throughout the transaction.
