Charles Russell Speechlys celebrates ten years in Paris

Charles Russell Speechlys Paris office celebrates ten years with a reception for clients and contacts on Thursday, 14 September, at the prestigious Automobile Club de France. It’s been an impressive decade for the office – growing the partnership, welcoming new practices, and winning awards and recognition from peers and clients alike.

Frédéric Jeannin, Partner and Head of the Paris Office, comments: 

It has been an outstanding decade of growth for our team here in Paris. In that time, we have expanded from four to eleven Partners and from twelve to thirty five fee earners and have solidified our position as a leading international private capital firm in Paris.  

I would like to extend a thank you to not only the incredible team we have here, but everyone who has been with us in this journey. There is much more to come. We will continue to develop to support our clients in the years ahead, with the support of our international network of more than 800 lawyers worldwide.

We offer a unique combination of services in tax matters, business law, employment law and litigation to our clients whom we assist in structuring their operations and their professional assets, both nationally and internationally.

Simon Ridpath, Managing Partner of Charles Russell Speechlys, continues:

Being in Paris to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of our Firm provides me with an enormous amount of pride. Being in this city is brilliant, and seeing how passionate our people are about their clients and how vibrant and diverse the team is fantastic.

The size and scale of the offering are integral to our business today, and what is pleasing to note is that our Partners from that day ten years ago remain at the heart of the team today. 

The Charles Russell Speechlys Paris office is going from strength to strength, and it's great to see how our private capital offering is taking shape with our people and clients in Paris. Congratulations to the team and thank you again to our clients.
