What is it about?
Importing, exporting, working with partners in France and abroad: all this requires mastering rules that vary by country and evolve quickly. Between EU law, export controls, customs rules, competition, product compliance and sustainability requirements, international trade is not just a contract and an Incoterm.
The goal is quite simple: your goods or services arrive at the right place, at the right cost and without blockage.
Your Challenges
In an SME or small business, every risk weighs on margin and deadlines. An error in preferential origin, a poorly drafted clause, incomplete product labeling or a regulatory change can be enough to immobilize a batch, delay a payment or burden a business relationship.
You need to see clearly quickly, know what to do in practice and document your decisions to avoid bad surprises during an inspection or dispute.
Who am I?
I am a business attorney in Lyon, trained in French and German law. I support executives every day who import, export or develop internationally.
I work in a network with colleagues in Spain, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Slovenia and Italy to get concrete answers when a question crosses borders. My approach is simple: understand your operational constraints, explain the rules without unnecessary jargon and propose a realistic approach.
What You Can Expect
I intervene alongside you to frame your operations before a problem occurs, and to support you when the situation becomes complicated.
We verify the rules applicable to your products or services, choose the right Incoterms, secure origin and customs value, adapt your terms and conditions and distribution or agency contracts to local laws, and anticipate the impacts of European Union competition rules.
In case of blockage, we gather useful documents, define an exit strategy and act if necessary before civil and commercial courts or with competent authorities.
My goal is constant: save you time, avoid blockages and protect your margin with concrete solutions that can be implemented by your teams.
