Practice Areas
PRESS LAW, RIGHT TO PRIVACY, IMAGE RIGHTS
Over the years we have acquired in-depth knowledge and vast experience in the area of press law (defamation, insult, right of reply, court-ordered press releases).
We defend corporations and associations as well as natural persons (celebrities, writers, journalists, etc.) in civil and criminal courts.
Several high-profile cases have contributed to our reputation in this area :
• We defended the two French Resistants, Lucie and Raymond Aubrac.
• We defended Charlie Hebdo in the case of the Muhammad cartoons.
• We defended Mrs. Liliane Bettencourt (the secret recordings of her private conversations).
• We defended Bob Dylan.

We are active in litigation involving various public figures’ right to privacy and image rights.
