How to sell a property in France
Selling property in France is a different experience compared to the UK, so it’s crucial to seek expert legal advice
I am a French qualified Avocat with over 30 years of experience, of which 18 have been in the UK. I assist clients across a range of private and business deals, as well as litigation in France.
I have particular experience in French real estate transactions of all kinds, French wills and estate planning and work on cross-border transactions with colleagues in the firm.
The law in France is very different to that of England and Wales and so if you are looking to buy or sell property in France or do business in France it is important you understand all the implications. My dual qualifications mean I understand what you might be expecting and how the actual position may be different to these expectations. I can help you understand the real picture and navigate you through to achieve your goals.
I can assist those facing litigation with banks in France and those dealing with the receivership of French companies.
English farmers who purchase a French farm and set up their business in France will receive all the specific advice they need.
