Positioning
The employment & social security team of Richelieu Avocats, made up of 6 lawyers, provides counselling and defence to its clients in all areas of employment & social security law.
Backed by 20 years of experience in counselling and litigations relating to employment & social security law, its founding partners, Jean-Oudard de Préville and Benoît Gruau, have acquired a solid reputation in complex litigations and for their proximity with legal or human resources departments and with directors, for assessing legal risks upfront and managing negotiations and litigations.
The arrival of Guillaume Marguet in 2013 has broadened the range of expertise to include the tax and corporate law aspects of cases.
