Libra Avocats offers its clients solutions in the areas of corporate law, general litigation, and private client. Libra Avocats brings specialized experience to its clients in each of these areas.

History of the Firm

Bernard Grelon, a founding partner of a major corporate law firm, and Delphine Eskenazi decided to create Libra Avocats in 2014 in order to bring their skills and experience to their clients in an organization devoted to providing particularly responsive support. Frances Auchincloss Goldsmith, from the same firm, helped to create the Libra Avocats firm and became a partner in 2020. Having a small team of an intimate size enables the firm to adapt to its clients needs, and allows the firm to work with hand-picked experts selected on a case-by-case basis. Libra Avocats has been founded not only on the knowledge and experience of its lawyers, but also on an exceptional network of colleagues and correspondents in France and abroad.

Libra Avocats offers its clients a rare form of expertise: a comprehensive view of the different fields of law, combined with a very detailed understanding of the interplay between French and foreign laws. The firm regularly advises individuals whose personal and financial situations are atypical, requiring complex management in France or abroad, as well as individuals faced with a high level of international mobility.
