What we do for you :
- Legal classification of fault (contractual or extra-contractual) ;
- Detailed analysis of professional behaviour and its consequences ;
- Formal action against the service provider at fault, with a claim for compensation;
- Legal action (professional liability, fault, negligence, fraud) ;

- Support during expert appraisals, negotiations or mediation procedures.
Frequently asked questions
How do I hold a professional liable?
A breach, damage and a causal link must be established. We gather the evidence, qualify the fault and bring the appropriate action.
What damage can I claim?
Recoverable loss includes actual loss and lost profit. We quantify the damage based on documents.
My professional liability is being invoked — what now?
Do not respond without checking your position and insurance cover. We analyse the case and organise your defence.
What are the deadlines to act?
Limitation periods vary according to the nature of the liability. Acting late can extinguish your rights.
What is the difference between an obligation of means and an obligation of result?
Depending on the obligation involved, the professional must either deploy adequate means (obligation of means) or achieve a specific result (obligation of result). This distinction changes the burden of proof and the prospects of establishing liability. We qualify the applicable obligation before acting.
Does the professional's liability insurance change anything?
Often, the insurance cover of the professional at fault allows faster and solvent compensation. The procedure then involves the insurer, who may dispute cover. We identify the insurer concerned and integrate this dimension into the negotiation and, where applicable, the action.
