Expertise

Guillaume is a French lawyer (Juriste) with particular expertise in French property law and other matters relating to acquiring and holding assets in France and subject to French law such as wills, inheritance and tax issues.

Much of Guillaume’s work involves providing comprehensive legal advice for English-speaking clients acquiring and holding assets in France.

His role often requires him to deal with various legal and tax aspects of transactions relating to French property, while taking into account the estate planning aspects resulting from such cross-border situations.

Guillaume understands the British way of thinking when advising on French law and, being French, he has an in-depth understanding of the way France and its administration, systems and people work.

He is passionate about working alongside his clients to solve issues and anticipate cross-border matters in an international context.
