The firm
Hoche Avocats is an independent French law firm, and has been for more than 30 years.
The Hoche firm
An independent, multidisciplinary French law firm founded more than 30 years ago, Hoche Avocats brings together 60 professionals from diverse backgrounds — lawyers and legal experts — including some fifteen partners.
They work daily in a domestic and/or international context to provide their clients with tailor-made support and legal advice across the main practice areas of business law.
The firm’s clients include major listed and unlisted French groups, multinationals, mid-caps and SMEs, growth companies, investment funds, family groups, banking and financial institutions, public entities and senior executives.
Independence and agility
An independent and flexible structure of 50 lawyers including 15 partners, working closely together to deliver comprehensive, personalised legal solutions that meet their clients’ specific needs.
Expertise
A firm renowned for its outstanding expertise in M&A, tax and employment law, with strong growth in litigation, restructuring and banking & finance.
Dynamism
In-depth knowledge of French public and private companies, family businesses, mid-caps and subsidiaries of large international groups, enabling us to support them effectively in all their domestic and cross-border matters.
International
Hoche Avocats has built privileged relationships with correspondents in the main European countries, notably the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, Italy, Benelux and Switzerland. The firm has also forged strong ties with correspondents in North America (United States and Canada).
These are firms with equivalent working methods and ethics, all firmly established in their own countries. Ongoing exchanges between the lawyers of these independent firms strengthen the quality of contacts and thereby increase efficiency and communication, in the best interests of clients.
Hoche Avocats can thus professionally support its clients abroad, or those wishing to expand internationally.
